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
Treatment of PAP?
whole lung lavage
26
What is the most common connective tissue disease leading to ILD?
``` Scleroderma - occurs in half RA typically in men, 20% SLE - uncommon to get progressive ILD Poly/dermatomyositis - 10% Sjogrens - get lymphocytic interstital pneumonia ```
27
Name some exposure related ILD?
Amiodarone - typically occurs in first year | Methotrexate - uncommon
