Q

What is CURB-65

A

A tool to determine if a PNA patient warrants hospitalization:
Confusion of new onset
BUN >20
Resp rate >30bpm
BP <90Systolic or <60diastolic
Age 65 or older.
Patients that score 3-5 usually require hospitalization.

NOT
NOT
Can be when used together
Helpful for those with chronic lung disease and chronic symptoms (MUST be hydrated)
Helpful for Those with wheezing on presentation and chronic lung disease
Helpful to reduce cough frequency and severity (caution prescribing in isolation because it is NOT a rescue inhaler).
Better than placebo! Reduce frequency and severity of cough

A

Streptococcus pneumonia.

22
Q

1st line Abx for CAP w/out co morbidities

A

Macrolides (Azithromycin, clarithromycin) or doxy

23
Q

If patient has comorbid factors or has received abx in the past 3 months, then consider what abx?

A

FQ WITH Macrolides.

24
Q

If a patient has a low severity CURB-65 score, then treat for _____ days
If mod to high score then treat for ____ days.

A

5
7-10

25
Q

USPSTF guidelines for lung cancer screening CT

A

Age 50-80 with =>20pack year history or quit within past 15 years. Annual LDCT offered

26
Q

What is alpha1 antitrypsin and what does it have to do with pulmonary pathology?

A

A protective enzyme that protects lung tissues from the enzymes of inflammatory cells especially neutrophil elastase which breaks down the protein elastin responsible for lung elasticity.
Smoking also deactivates this enzyme and increases elastase activity
Cause of COPD in young non smokers.

27
Q

Most common presenting complaint of COPD?

A

Dyspnea on Exertion (DOE).

28
Q

Threshold for O2 therapy in COPDers: FEV1 < ——-

A

35%

29
Q

COPD have _____ FEV1 and ______ residual volume

A

Decreased
Increased

30
Q

GOLD classification measures _____ , CAT measures ______
And mMRC measures _____

A

Airflow restriction severity based on FEV1 (Gold 1 >=80%, 2 = >=50-80, 3 = <50, >=30, 4 =very severe = <30%
CAT = COPD Assessment Test
mMRC = modified British Medical Research council.

32
Q

ACT/ACQ used to assess level of asthma control

A
33
Q

Look up “allergic shiners”

A
34
Q

Get spirometry in all patients at ___ and older. For asthma, you should see an improvement of _____ or _____ after bronchodilator use.

A

5
12% or 200ml improvement in FEV1. OR FVC 80% or more of predicted LLN.

35
Q

Slide 17-20 -review! Great asthma charts

A
36
Q

How often should you obtain lung function with spirometry in patients with asthma?
When should their f/u appointment be if you stepped up with treatment.

A

Q1-2 years or more frequently if not controlled
2-6 uncontrolled, 1-6mo if controlled, every 3 mo if step-down is anticipated.

37
Q

GINA suggests ICS while NIH does not yet. More evidence to suggest intermittent ICS is. Better for patient.

A
38
Q

ICS/LABA/SABA _____ in pregnancy

A

Safe

39
Q

Covid most commonly transmitted through _____

A

Droplet
Less commonly airborne (>6ft) even less commonly fomites (residual left in a room)

40
Q

Progression of severe covid

A

Inhalation (binding to ACE2 alveoli cells)
Viral replication (in lungs with immune response)
Interstitial inflammation + edema = pneumonia
Cytokin storm (day 10) = multi organ involvement
- ARDS
-HF, STEMI, arrhythmias, cardiac tampon are
-Thromboembolsim
-kidney injury
-GI manifestations
-Neuro manifestations

41
Q

Why are patients with comorbidities more susceptible to severe COVID PNA?

A

They already have a baseline ACE2 Downregulation and baseline activation of AT1R axis, baseline cytokine release and inflammation
Coupled with COVID cytokine storm = not good.

42
Q

Derm findings with COVID

A

COVID toes, itchy patchy rash, hives, vesicular-like on feet.

43
Q

T/F: antibody testing is recommended for acute COVID dx.

A

False. It takes about 14days from onset of symptoms. PCR(Type of NAAT) is recommended for acute testing.

44
Q

Which is more sensitive: PCR or antigen test for COVID?

A

PCR is more sensitive. They are BOTH highly specific (true negatives)

45
Q

1st line COVID tx

A

Paxlovid (ritonavir and nirmatrelvir)
Strong CYP 3A4 inhibitor - boosts HIV protease inhibitors.

46
Q

very important to do what prior to treating COVID?

A

ENTIRE Med Rec. Paxlovid is CYP 3A4 inhibitor (may make other med concentration higher in their blood stream)

47
Q

Cannot give Paxlovid in ____ and ____

A

eGFR <30 or severe hepatic impairment (class C)

48
Q

What med class is NOT good to give for COVID?

A

Steroids in mild-moderate disease (non-o2 requiring patients)
Can increse duration of fever, increased duration to viral clearance and longer hospital stays
Can give steroids in very sick, hospitalized patients.
