last part of lung patho Flashcards
true/false:
dyspmea in COPD is more of FEV1 than hyperinflation
False
-more of hyperinflation than FEV1
explain the physio of COPD
fast inhalation causes the airway to collapse so kapag nag exhale… di lahat nalalabas kaya alveoli opens up some more and more air is trap (cycle continues)
t/F: napupuno agad ang lungs dahil malaki ang residual volume
true
t/f: functional residual capacity of the lings increases as well as the total lung capacoty and tidal volume
false- total lung capacoty and todal volume remains the same
characterized by persistent airlfow limitation with several features usually associated with asthma and copd
asthma-copd overlap syndrome
cells in asthma
mast cells, eosinophils, cd4, t cells , macrophages
cells in copd
neutrophils, cd8 t cells, macrophages
MEDIATORS IN ASTHMA AND COPD
Asthama: LTD4, histamine, il4,il5, Ros +
COPD: LTB4, IL-8,TNF-a, ROS +++
effects of asthma and copd
astma: all airways, little fibrosis,epithelial shedding
copd:
peripheral airways, lung destruction, fibrosis, squamous metaplasia
dilation of medium sized bronchi
bronchiesctasis
principle mediator of bronchiectasis
Neutrophils
presentation of Bronchiectasis
focal: in an isolated segment
diffuse: spread throughout the mid and lower tracheobronchial tree
PRIMARY CRITERIA FOR THE DIAGNOSIS OF BE
impairment of mucociliary drainage
anatomic airway obstruction
congenital disease predisposes to chronic infection
produces nonfunctional cilia
alpha- antitrypsin 1
CAUSES OF BE
Postinfective mechanical obstruction defcient immune resposne inflammatory pneumonitis congenital
examples of postinfective
whooping cough, tb, non-tb myobacteria
examples of deficient immune response
HIV
example of inflammatory pneumonitis
aspiration of gastric contents, inhalation of toxic gases
T/F: we do not do biopsies on the philippines. we do CT scan and CXR
