RESTRICTIVE LUNG DISEASES
RESTRICTIVE LUNG DISEASES
In Restrictive Lung Disease, what happens to residual volume (RV), expiratory reserve volume (ERV), tidal volume (TV), and inspiratory reserve volume (IRV)?
They are all reduced.
Restrictive Lung Disease involves _______ lung volumes and _________ compliance.
reduced lung volumes and decreased compliance (less air moved and more work done)
Restrictive Lung Disease:
- ________ total lung capacity
- ________ inspiratory reserve capacity
- ________ secondary to inadequate alveolar ventilation
- Associated with conditions that reduce _____ ____ movement.
- decreased
- decreased
- hypoxemia
- cell wall
What is the medical management of Restrictive Lung Disease?
- symptom management
- corticosteroids
Is Restrictive Lung Disease reversible?
Most cases are not reversible.
___________ is a lung disease caused by breathing in certain kinds of dust particles that damage the lungs. It is often called an occupational lung disease.
Pneumoconiosis
Pneumoconiosis results in interstitial ________.
fibrosis
Pneumoconiosis:
- Characterized by breathing in particulate matter resulting in ________, _________, and _________
- Usually takes _______ to develop
- Inflammation leads to pulmonary ______
- Blood vessel and alveolar damage-become _______ and _______
- Not ___________
- Can be simple or complex/progressive which results in massive ___________
- inflammation, coughing, and fibrosis
- years
- scarring
- thicker and stiffer
- reversible
- FIBROSIS
What are some symptoms of Pneumoconiosis (Interstitial Disease)?
- Quite a range in disease severity
- Cough
- Phlegm
- SOB contributing to reduced physical functional capacity
- Progressive respiratory failure
- Lung cancer
- TB
- HF (cor pulmonale)
What are some examples of Pneumoconiosis?
- Black Lung Disease (coal dust)
- Brown Lung Disease (agricultural dust)
- Asbestoses
- Silicosis
What does treatment of Pneumoconiosis (Interstitial Diseases) look like?
- Treat complications
- Medications
- Chest Physiology (mobilize and remove secretions)
- Exercise
Pulmonary _________ refers to a variety of disorders in which ongoing epithelial damage or chronic inflammation of lung tissue leads to progressive scarring (fibrosis) of the lungs resulting in respiratory failure.
Fibrosis
- Pulmonary Fibrosis causes can be linked to _________ and _______ factors as well as age >__. Can also be caused from _____ tissue resulting from recovery from active disease (TB, ARDS, CT disease, XRT and chemotherapy).
- Most of the time, however, Pulmonary Fibrosis is ________ (accounts for 66%).
- environmental (smoking) and genetic
- 50
- scar
-idiopathic
Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis Clinical Course:
- Begins __________ with gradual increasing _________ on exertion and dry cough
- __________ progression
- Hypoxemia, cyanosis and clubbing
- Decreased diffusing capacity of the alveolocapillary membrane leading to __________
- Median survival -_ yrs. after dx.
- Lung transplantation only definitive therapy
- insidious, dyspnea
- Unpredictable
- hypoxemia
- 3 years
What are some chest wall disorders that can lead to Restrictive Lung Disease?
- Neuromuscular (ALS, polio, MD, Guillain-Barre)
- Skeletal deformities (kyphosis, scoliosis, chest wall injury or deformity)
- Postsurgical status (abdominal and thoracic surgery)
- Obesity
- Collagen vascular disease (scleroderma, SLE, RA)
__________ _________ (___________) is an autoimmune disease of connective tissue characterized by excessive collagen deposition in the skin and internal organs, particularly the kidneys and lungs.
Systemic Sclerosis (Scleroderma)
In Systemic Sclerosis (Scleroderma) organ damage results from:
- __________
- Sever thickening and obstruction of _________
- Cutaneous _________ occurs
- Inflammation
- vessels
- fibrosis
With RA, about __-__% of them have pulmonary involvement.
30-40%
- About __% of people with SLE will experience lung involvement.
- What is the most distinctive sign of lupus?
- 50%
- Facial rash that resembles the wings of a butterfly unfolding across both cheeks.
SLE can be both _____ or _______. It can result in pneumonitis, what is this?
- acute or chronic
- General term that refers to inflammation of lung tissue. A term usually used to refer to noninfectious causes of lung inflammation.
Remember that SLE is a ____-______ pathology.
Multi-System
- Kidney
- CNS
- Blood and blood vessel
- Heart
Lastly, any chest wall _______ or lung injury can lead to Restrictive Lung Disease.
Trauma
- blunt force
- rib/sternal injuries
- surgical injury (thoracotomy)
Cystic Fibrosis is classified as a ________ _____ ________.
