28
felodipine
CCB for hypertension
29
PRN
pro re nata "as needed'
30
ABG and asthma attack
if low O2 should also be low CO2 “blowing off”-→ due to hyperventilation if CO2 high pt may need intubation -→ patient too tired to breathe
31
montelukast
leukotrienes antagonist-→ asthma prophylaxis
32
outline asthma exacerbation management
1. SABA and ICS (nebulised) 2. O2 if needed 3. ipratropium bromide 4. aminophylline + magnesium sulfate
33
types of asthma exac
mild mod severe/life-threatening
34
discharge after asthma exacerbation
1. O2 stopped 2. nebuliser stopper for 24hr 3. no infection markers (CRP) 4. 75% of peak flow
35
opacification on CT/X-ray
tumour infection fluid
36
SoB treatment
oromorph (morphine)- symptomatic control - palliation
37
sources of potassium

salbutamol terbutaline sulfate
39
carbocisteine
mucolytic
40
spiriva
triotropium bromid= LAMA
41
non-epileptic seizures
not caused by abnormal electrical activity in the brain causes * low blood glucose * dissociative seizures * heart problem
42
CURB-65
confusion urea respiratory rate blood pressure \>65
43
ground glass opacification
‘hazy radiopacity, often fairly diffuse, in which the edges of pulmonary vessels may be difficult to appreciate’ * infection * chronic interstitial disease * acute alveolar disease
44
causes of pulmonary fibrosis (drug induced)
* amiodarone * nitrofurantoin * bleomycin
45
which system used to stage COPD
GOLD
46
venturi valves
47
what causes eosinophilia
condition most often indicates a **parasitic infection**, an allergic reaction, asthma or cancer
48
what causes low eosinophils
steroids

56
chronic stridor
laryngomalacia subglottis steroid
57
if suspciious of PE e.g. high D-dimers
CT PA pulmonary angiogram
58
controlled O2
principle of avoiding over oxygenation -→ target sats will depend on underlying resp disease e.g. 88-92% for COPD
59
when to do ABG
sats \<94%
60
normal breath sounds
vesicular
61
bronchial breathing
harsh-sounding pause between inspiration and expiration →CONSOLIDATION e.g. pneumonia
62
quiet breath sounds
reduced air entry into that region of lung e.g. pleural effusion or pneumothorax *REDUCED AIR SOUNDS rather than reduced air entry*
63
added sounds
wheeze stridor coarse crackles fine end- inspiratory crackles respiratory illness
64
wheeze
continuous, coarse, whistling * asthma * bronchiectasis
65
stridor
high-pitched noise breathing in (narrowe airway) * foreign body (acute) * subglottic stenosis
66
coarse crackles
discontinuous, brief, popping sounds * pneumonia * bronchiectasis * pulmonary oedema
67
fine end-inspiratory crackles
VELCRO pulmonary fibrosis
68
obstructive resp illness
COPD (chronic bronchitis and emphysema) and asthma \<70% FEV1/FVC ratio
69
restrictive resp illness
ILD and scoliosis
70
types of ILD
* **_Exposure_** * drugs e.g. bleomycin * environment e.g. dust * **_Autoimmune related_** * RA * SLE * **_Idiopathic_** * idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis
