A

secondary to…
sepsis
pulmonary infections
gastric aspiration
near drowning
heroin overdose

59
Q

what is the end result of ARDS

A

60
Q

pathogenesis of ARDS

A

Q

outcomes of ARDS

A

most patients present w/predisposing condition and then develop ARDS
develops in hospital

abnormal, permanent enlargement
air trapping

85

A

increase in inflammatory cells
leads to imbalance of anti-inflammation/pro-inflammation

combined w/other obstructive diseases

88
Q

symptoms of chronic bronchitis

A

persistent cough for ~3mo/yr in 2 consecutive years

89
Q

long term complications of bronchitis

A

COPD
cor pulmonale
metaplasia of bronchiole epithelium=CANCER

90
Q

what initiates bronchitis

A

inhalation of irritant, irritant leads to mucus production and glandular hypertrophy, pulmonary capillary bed is undamaged
