COPD PP 21 on Flashcards
Type B COPD, “blue bloater” associated with ________
chronic bronchitis
Hypersecretion of bronchial mucus
chronic bronchitis
1) Chronic or recurrent productive cough >3 months >2+ successive years 2) Persistent, irreversible when paired with emphysema 3) 1:2 male to female ratio 4) >30 to 40 years
chronic bronchitis
Chronic inflammation and swelling of the bronchial mucosa resulting in scarring leads to ______
chronic bronchitis
Elevated IL8 levels recruit neutrophil activation Elevated CD8 T-lymphocytes Extend into surrounding alveoli prevents proper oxygenation and potentiates airway obstruction
chronic bronchitis
Hyperplasia of bronchial mucous gland/goblet cells Formation of mucus plugs
chronic bronchitis
Increased bronchial wall thickness associated with _____
chronic bronchitis
Pulmonary hypertension associated with _____
chronic bronchitis
Pulmonary hypertension in chronic bronchitis caused by _______ and ______
cor pulmonale; r/s heart failure
Results in dilation of airway sacs: bronchiectasis Dilated sacs contain pools of infected secretion that do not clear themselves; can cause further infection that can spread to adjacent lung fields by the lymphatics or venous drainage to other areas of the body, commonly the brain

Use of accessory muscles manifestation of ______
emphysema
