47
youre about to extubate your abestoses patient, they're tachypneic pulling low VT with a normal ABG. pull the tube or wait
patients with restrictive lung disease typically have rapid, shallow breathing **tachypnea should be used as the sole criteria for delaying extubation if gas exchange and other assessments are satisfactory**

recommendations for intubation/expiration to decreased aspiration risk
elevated HOB
50
chemical pneumonitis symptoms
abrupt onset dyspnea, tachycardia, decreased SpO2
51
what happens when gastric fluid is aspirated
it distributes throughout the lungs and destroys surfactant producing cells and pulmonary capillary endothelium | as a result atelactasis and leakage of fluid into the lungs occurs
52
chemical pneumonitis may present with Acute lung injury and have what symtoms
tachypnea, bronchospasm, acute pulmonary HTN, arterial hypoxemia
53
if you note aspiration what steps do you do next
suction the oropharynx turn patient on the side
54
t/f trendelenburg will stop gastric reflux
no - trendelburg will **not** stop gastric reflux but can precent aspirations once contents are in the pharynx
55
when might a patient need lavage of the lungs
aspiration of particulate material *aspirated gastric fluid is rapidly redistributed to peripheral lung regions*
56
aspiration pneumonitis is treated by
supplemental O2 and PEEP bronchodilation to relieve bronchospasm
57
do you give ABX immediately after aspiration
if pt is symptomatic after 48 hours and positve culture results | no evidence that ABX decrease the pulmonary infection or alter outcomes
58

63
pulmonary symptoms with COVID lungs
dyspnea to ventilator dependence and pulmonary fibrosis
64
what is the most commonly reported finding with COVID lungs and is directly related to the serverity of inital disease process
drop in diffusion capacity
65
survivors of COVID have what 3 things
decreased exercise capacity hypoxia opacities on CT
66
COVID lung patients requiring mechanical ventilation are at high risk of
pulm complications
67
67
acute respiraory failure is present when
PaO2 < 60 mmhg despite supplemental O2 and in absence of right to left intracardiac shunt
68
what is the PaCO2 in acute lung failure
incrased, unchanged, decreased **depends on the relaionship of alveolar ventilation to CO2 production**
69
for diagnosis of Acute Lung Failure what is the PaCO2 in the absence of respiratory compensation metabolic alkaolosis
PaCO2 > 50 mmHg
70
how to distinguish ARF from chronic respiratory failure
pH- PaCO2 **acute**: increased PaCO2 and low pH **chronic**: pH is normal with elevated PaCO2

supportive care consists of ventiliation, antibiotics,stress ulcer prophlayxis, DVT prophlyxais, and early enteral feedings
85
for refractory hypopxemia in ARDS what are 2 proposed therapies
proning ECMO

why proning?
exploits gravity and respositioning the heart in the thorax to recriut lung units and improve VQ matching
