Final review 4 Flashcards
ALTERATIONS In VENTILATION (breathing) - factors (either lungs can’t expand, or there is resistance) vent resists compliance
- Lung Compliance - lung expandability
- Airway Resistance - asthma patients
External respiration (what has contact with the external environment?)
alveolar-capillary gas exchange
internal respiration (where does INTERNAL exchange happen?)
capillary-tissue gas exchange
hypoxemia number (Just think of the 02 range you memorized)
level less than 80
Hypercapnia**and is it acute or chronic?
Hypercapnia can be acute or chronic
hypocapnea causes - just one
usually high altitude
alveolar-capillary membrane disorders (just lung disorders)
stiff lung; pulmonary edema, acute respiratory distress
syndrome ARDS, pulmonary fibrosis
Prolonged expiratory time - what causes it?
COPD
crepitus
air in subcutaneous tissue - it’s a little bump
pulse ox estimates what?
Estimate of arterial blood 02 sat
Med administration such as inhalers, nebulizers
(every 4 hours as needed, or for acute every 4 hours around the clock. for someone who is wheezing, but don’t give it too often bc it’s a CNS stimulant)
lactic acid - excess in anaerobic respiration - causes what?
hypoxia
ex airway inflammation
COPD
ventilation is movement of____respiration is exchange of____
air, gases (O2 and CO2) in the lungs
what disease is Lung Compliance an issue?
COPD - need more pressure to expand lungs
fever causes what to happen with 02 levels?
hypoxia - - fever (more oxygen is needed)
internal and external causes of hypoxia? (pneumonia comes from the outside in to steal 02)
internal - severe sepsis
external - pneumonia
what sound with pulmonary edema? (edema strides in)
stridor
how to prevent atelectasis?
****prevent collapse use spirometer, get patient to cough, ambulate, sit patient up, pain medication!
interventions if patient becomes hypoxic - order of masks from least aggressive to most (CFVOCI) - Cedar Falls is Very Oakey Causing Ice
nasal cannula
simple face mask (also inhaling some of their oxygen so it’s more concentrated)
venturi mask
oronasal face - one way valve mask
cpap
intubation
good O2 % level for ppl with COPD
90- 92%
HAI - exogenous and ex.
develop infection outside of you, tetanus
HAI - endogenous
endogenous - w/in you, flora on skin (yeast) IV inserted and now you have a bloodborne infection.
