Q

Which disease?

  • No bronchial obstruction
  • Compensatory tachypnea, why?
  • Over-expanded chest
  • “Barrel-Shaped” chest
  • What position are they in and why?
A

Emphysema

  • Tachypneic bc/ of reduced respiratory surface
  • Hunched forward to engage auxiliary respiratory muscles
22
Q

Are emphysema patients hyperventilating or hypoventilating?

A

Hyperventilating, they oxygenate the blood adequately, so they are not blue and have no brain anoxia.

“Pink Puffers”

23
Q

A
  • Clear lung fields
  • Over inflated lungs

24
Q
  • Some dyspnea
  • Terrible cough
  • Mucopurulent sputum
  • Cyanosis
  • Pulm HTN
  • Peripheral edema
  • Densities on radiograph
A

Bronchitis

25
Q
  • Bad dyspnea
  • Mild cough
  • +/- sputum
  • Mucoid sputum if any
  • No cyanosis
  • No pulm HTN
  • No peripheral edema
  • Overinflation of radiograph
A

Emphysema

26
Q

Which of the COPD diseases have (Hypertrophy and Hyperplasia)?

A
  • Chronic Bronchitis
  • Bronchial Asthma
27
Q
  • Which 2 of the 4 COPD diseases have the most mucous production? (overabundance of mucus in the lumen)
  • And which of the 2 has more mucus than the other?

A
  • Emphysema
  • Bronchial Asthma
29
Q

A

Bronchiectasis

34
Q

A permanent dilatation of the bronchi, which is the most common complication of chronic bronchitis

A

Bronchiectasis

35
Q

Which disease?

  • Abnormally dilated bronchi
  • Bronchioles filled w/ mucopurulent material which stagnates (cannot be cleared by coughing)
  • Infected occurs due to stagnation, spreads to adjacent alveoli, recurrent PNAs are common
  • Hematogenic spread of infection to other organs
  • Adhesions between lobes may occur
A

Bronchiectasis

36
Q
