Q

habit cough

A

A habit cough is caused by habitual perpetuation of cough begun with a viral upper respiratory infection.
Continued coughing irritates the airway further, leading to a stronger stimulation to cough.
The cough is typically very loud, short, dry, brassy and spasmodic.
A habit cough is unchanged by exercise or cold air and classically resolves during sleep.

Q

what is one of the most important distinguishing characteristics of a sinusitits

persisting ssx w/o improvement as viral URI tends to improve over the course of a week or so.

24
Q

pale edematous turbinates aka and seen in

A

boggy, nasal allergies , can be concurrent w/ sinusitis

25
Q

cobblestoning is

A

lymphoid hyperplasia of posterior pharynx due to chronic PND and most often seen in kids w/ chronic allergic rhinitis

26
Q

in which types of pt are nasal polyps often seen

A

cf, astham, aspirin sensitive

27
Q

3 criterion in dx sinusitis

A

Persistence of bilateral nasal discharge of any quality or daytime cough, or both, lasting for more than 10 days without significant improvement (unilateral symptoms suggest a nasal foreign body), OR
Worsening after initial improvement (“double-sickening”) OR
High fever and purulent nasal discharge for more than 3 days.

28
Q

1st line tx for sinusitis

A

amox w or w/o clav

29
Q

wheezing is the sound of

A

airflow thru narrow airways

30
Q

accessory muscles of respiration

A

inspiratory contraction of SCM at rest = severe resp distress

31
Q

hyperrres vs dullness

A
hyper = air
dull = lobar consolidatin or atelec
32
Q

egophany

A

ee–>ay sound, due to lobar consolidation aka airless lung

33
Q

I:E ratio

A

full inspiration time to full expiration time, normally 1:2, or 1:# but in obstruction, expiration is prolonged thus ratio down

34
Q

2 ways in which crackles and ronchi differ

A

crackles inspiratory, discontinuous

ronchi expiratory, continous

35
Q

ronchi due to

A

mucous, secretion in airway

41
Q

pathophysi of asthma

A

biphasis

  1. lasts 1 h - allergen triggers, mast cells and eos release PG and leukotirenes –>permeability, hyper secretion, bronchoconstriction
  2. 2-3h later - worst by 4-8h, resolves by 24h, neuts eos lymphocyte infiltratio–>hyperplaia of bronchial smooth musc
42
