Q

DVT

A

occlusion of a vein by a clot (thrombus) w/ secondary inflammatory reaction in the wall of the vein

23
Q

varicose veins patho

A

valves become incompetent or veins more elastic

veins become engorged w/ stagnant blood

24
Q

angina chronic stable

A

classic

exertional

occurs @ predictable levels of physical and emotional stress

OK AT REST

25
Q

angina diagnosis

A

history supported by sublingual nitroglycerin shortening attacks

26
Q

heart block

A

rhythm arrythmia

disorder of heartbeat caused by an interruption in the passage of impulses through the heart’s electrical system

27
Q

congenital heart disease

A

cyanotic

acyanotic

28
Q

cyanotic CHF

A

defects result from obstruction of blood flow to the lungs or mixing of venous and arterial blood within the chambers of the heart

tetrology of fallot

29
Q

tetrology of fallot

A

pulmonary stenosis

large ventricular septal defect

aortic communication w/ both ventricles

right ventricular hypertrophy

30
Q

barrel chest

A

advances cystic fibrosis

31
Q

2 types of asthma

A

extrinsic

intrinsic

32
Q

extrinsic asthma

A

allergic

result of an allergy to specific triggers

33
Q

intrinsic

A

non-allergic

no known allergic cause or trigger

34
Q

bronchitis types

A

chronic (COPD)

acute

35
Q

chronic bronchitis

A

productive cough lasting for at least 3 months per year for 2 years

36
Q

chronic bronchitis risk factors

A

irritants and smoking

37
Q

patho chronic bronchitis

A

inflammation and scarring of bronchial lining

38
Q

clin man chronic bronchitis

A

persistent cough and sputum production that causes SOB, prolonged expiration, recurrent infection

39
Q

management of chronic bronchitis

A

reducing irritants and combo of bronchodilators

40
Q

acute bronchitis

A

inflammation of trachea and bronchi that is short duration (1-3 weeks)

result from chemical irritation or viral irritation

41
Q

acute bronchitis symptoms

A

upper respiratory infection/cold

when worsens leads to fever, irritating cough, sore throat, laryngitis, chest pain

42
Q

viral acute bronchitis

A

non-productive cough aggravated by cold, dusty air

43
Q

bacterial acute bronchitis

A

retrosternal pain aggravated by cough

44
Q

radio-opaque lobe on CXR

A

lobar pneumonia

45
Q

atelectasis

A

collapse of normally expanded and aerated lung tissue at the structural level

46
Q

primary cause of atelectasis

A

obstruction of bronchus serving affected area

air in the alveoli is slowly absorbed into blood stream w/ subsequent collapse of alveoli

47
Q

how else can atelectasis occur

A

interference w/ natural forces that promote lung expansion

direct compression

48
Q

symptoms atelectasis

A

dyspnea, tachypnea, cyanosis, elevation of temp, drop in BP, substernal forces, shock

49
Q

treatment atelectasis

A

re-expansion of lung

chronic cases –> removal of segment/lobe

50
Q

cystic fibrosis

A

inherited disorder of ion transport to exocrine glands

NA and CL

autosomal recessive trait –> mutation on chromosome 7 –> CFTR gene

51
Q

CF patho

A

impermeability of epithelial cells to Cl-

elevation of sweat electrolytes

pancreatic insufficiency

dehydrated and increased viscosity of mucus gland secretions in lungs, pancreas and sweat glands

52
Q

CF presents thick mucus in

A

lungs

pancreas

liver

53
Q

CF clin man

A

excessive appetite

poor weight

salty skin and sweat

bulky stool that floats

54
Q

diagnosis CF

A

sweat test

sodium chloride conc

under 20 –> >60

over 20 –> >80

55
Q

A

median age is 38.3 d/y pulmonary complications
