Chapter 15 Patho Flashcards
- Define genetic disorder
- Most common fatal inherited disorder in childhood
- Adult disease
- Most common fatal inherited disorder in childhood
- CF is autosomal recessive gene disorder of
mutation in a pair of genes located on Chromosome 7
- There are ? different mutations of CF in the gene that encodes CF
- 2400
- 2500
- 3400
- 2400
- CFTR define
cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator
- Genetic defect for CF involves absence of 3 pairs of codon 508, what percent of cases
- 70-75% of all CF pt tested
- 50-65% of all CF pt tested
- 70-75% of all CF pt tested
- Basis of what causes CF
- chlorine is not transported into cells, causes water to leave mucous (leaving behind thick mucous).
- cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator
- chlorine is not transported into cells, causes water to leave mucous (leaving behind thick mucous).
- anatomic alterations of the lung
- excessive production & accumulation of thick, tenacious mucus in the tracheobronchial tree
- mucous plugging, partial bronchial obstruction
- hyperinflation of alveoli
- total bronchial destruction (mucous plugging)
- altelectasis
- mucous blocks which organ causing the body to not be able to digest fats & proteins
- Pancreas
- Liver
- Heart
- Pancreas
- Blockage in the intestines (infants after birth) called?
- Meconium ileus.
- COPD.
- Empysema
- Meconium ileus.
- How CF affects fertility.
- Infertility in men, decreased fertility with women
- Infertility in women, decreased fertility with men
- Infertility in men, decreased fertility with women
- Clinical symptoms consistent with CF in at least one organ system?.
Has at least many diseases what is it?
- pulmonary system
- sinus disease
- pancreatic disease
- meconium ileus
- bilary disease
- male infertility
- Clinical evidence of CF, through test
- elevated sweat chlorine >60 mEq/L (on 2 occasions)
- Genetic testing presence of 2 disease causing mutation
- abnormal nasal potential difference
- Screening and dx
- newborn screening
- sweat test
- genetic testing
- nasal potential difference
- prenatal testing
- stool fecal fat test
- CF screening protocols will ID ?% of infants
90% at newborn
- Most common DNA protocol for screening newborn
for 32-85 of the most common CF mutations on the 2-5% of the samples with highest IRT
- A negative or normal sweat test ID
as a carrier of CF
- If both parents test positive for the CF mutation, the chances of a positive CF child is what %
25%, 50% unaffected, 25% unaffected
- When one parent is carrier and the other parent is CF parent, what are the chances of Child.
50% chance affected and 50% chance unaffected carrier
- Noncarrier parent and CF parent what is the chances of the child?
100% chance unaffected carrier
- Noncarrier parent and carrier parent what are the chances of the child?
50% chance unaffected and 50% chance unaffected
- define fecal fat test
test measures the amount of fat in the infants stool and the % of dietary fat not absorbed by the body
test measures the amount of fat in the infants stool and the % of dietary fat not absorbed by the body
- fecal fat test determines how which organs are functioning
liver, gallbladder, pancreas, intestines are functioning
normal results for fecal fat test
7 g of fat per 24 hours is normal for malabsorption, any number above 7 is associated with several disorders including CF
what are 3 clinical manifestation of CF
- atelectasis
- bronchospasm
- excessive bronchial secretions
- Vital signs for CF that show increased
respiratory rate tachypnea
heart rate pulse
blood pressure elevated
- Physical observations
use of accessory muscles of inspiration use of accessory muscles of expiration pursed-lip breathing barrel chested cyanosis digital clubbing cough, sputum production & hemoptysis
- chest assessment findings
decreased tactile & vocal fremitus hyperresonant percussion note diminished breath sounds diminished heart sounds bronchial breath sounds (over atelectasis) crackles wheezing
- When CF pt has spontaneous pnuemothorax pt has ?% of reoccurence
50% chance
- FEV1 (decreased or increased)
decreased, forced expiratory volume in 1 second
