16
Q

What are some new therapies for IPF?

A

Nintedanib - multiple tyrosine kinase receptor blocker, slows rate of disease progression and increases time to first exacerbation
Pirfenidone - antifibrotic agent, slows rate of decline and reduces mortality

17
Q

When to consider lung transplant for IPF?

A

When DLCO less then 40%

- IPF do best of all disease transplanted

18
Q

What is the imaging features of NSIP?

A

basillar subpleural ground glass opacities

*No honeycombing

19
Q

What is NSIP often associated with?

A

Connective tissue disease related lung disease

20
Q

What is AIP?

A

acute onset, similar to ARDs, high mortality, often requires mechanical ventilation
pathological pattern is diffuse alveolar damage (DAD)
Often have hyaline membrane (which is also present in ARDS)

21
Q

What is COP?

A

Cryptogenic organizing pneumonia (COP)

  • usually follows an infection
  • basilar subpleural ground glass opacities and consolidation
  • good prognosis, 2/3 respond to steroids
22
Q

What is DIP?

A

Desquamative interstital pneumonia
typical in smokers
diffuse ground glass opacity, basal and peripheral
lots of reactive macrophages in intraalvelor spaces
good prognosis with smoking cessation

23
Q

What is RB-ILD?

A

Respiratory bronchiolitis associated ILD

  • centrilobular, micronodular disase
  • occurs in smokers, resolves with cessation of smoking
24
Q

What is pulmonary alveolar proteinosis?

A

most are aquired
autoimmune process with igG antibody against GM-CSF which causes dysfunctional alveolar macrophages
leads to decreased surfactant clearence and occumulation of acid schiff positive proteinaceous material

25
Q

Treatment of PAP?

A

whole lung lavage

26
Q

What is the most common connective tissue disease leading to ILD?

A
Scleroderma - occurs in half
RA typically in men, 20%
SLE - uncommon to get progressive ILD
Poly/dermatomyositis - 10%
Sjogrens - get lymphocytic interstital pneumonia
27
Q

Name some exposure related ILD?

A

Amiodarone - typically occurs in first year

Methotrexate - uncommon
