atelectasis
collapse or incomplete expansion of part of or all lungs
reduce gas exchange in alveoli
3 types of atelectasis
- resorption atelectasis (obstruct airway, i.e. tumor, aspire foreign body, mucous plug from asthma or bronchitis, reduced tidal volume)
- compression atelectasis (compress from outside i.e. pleural space from tumors, fluid accumulation, pneumothorax )
- contraction atelectasis (fibrosis of lungs, reduced compliance and expansion, restrictive pulmonary disease)
atelectasis is not a ____ but increases risk for _____
disease
pulmonary infection/ pneumonia, ventilation-perfusion mismatch
pleural effusion
excess fluid in pleural cavity
normal: 10-25mL
type of epithelial tissue for pleura
mesothelium (for fluid transport)
nerves in each layer of pleura
visceral (inner): none-ish
parietal: intercostal nerves and phrenic nerves –> pain
replace pleural fluid how often
12x/day via lymphs
how do layers of pleura never touch
negative charges repel
pneumothorax (air in pleural space) from
trauma, obstructive lung disease
hemothorax
blood in pleural space from trauma or vascular rupture
hemorrhagic pleurites
blood and inflammatory fluid (leukocytes, protein, exudate)
empyema
purulent inflammation in pleural space
adhesion from visceral to parietal pleura
2 types of pleural effusions
transudative
exudative
transudative vs exudative pleural effusion
transudative: pressure imbalance (starling forces) and minimal protein and cells in the fluid accumulation (i.e. CHF, nephrotic syndrome, cirrhosis, pericarditis, atelectasis)
exudative: inflammation, infection, protein rich (i.e. malignancy, lupus, RA, infection, pulmonary emboli, drugs, pneumonia)
parapneumonic effusion
pleural effusion from pneumonia complication; infection spread to pleura
can become empyema (pus in pleural cavity)
3 stages of infectious pleural effusions
- exudative phase (sterile fluid rich in protein goes into pleural space)
- fibrinopurulent stage (bacterial invade and neutrophils; pus)
- organization stage (fibroblasts grow into exudates between pleural layers; membrane inelastic and prevent inflammation)
3 types of pleural effusions
- uncomplicated (exudate w neutrophils, no microbes- get antibiotics)
- complicated (bacteria invade but rapidly cleared- drainage needed)
- empyema (pus- need drainage, from bacterial pneumonia 70%)
sx of pleural effusion
dyspnea
chest pain
influenza syndrome vs influenza microbe
syndrome: fever, malaise, myalgia and respiratory sx (i.e. dyspnea, cough, URTI rhinitis and sinusitis)
microbe: influenza virus (anywhere in in respiratory tract i.e. rhinitis vs pneumonia)
influenza A and B
orthomyxovirus; negative ssRNA
RNA polymerase to get into host ribosome
proteins in influena
neuraminidase
viral hemagglutin
RNA-dependent RNA polymerase
hemagglutinin spike, neuraminidase spike, and PB protein (RNA dependent RNA polymerase) in influenza virus
functions
hemagglutinin: virus bind and invade host via silica acid
neuraminidase: virus disengage from cell and spread
PB protein: transport to nucleus where viral mRNAs are produced
life cycle of influenza A and B
bind via hemagglutinin
bud via neuraminidase
