Oral Medicine II - fishyfishy Flashcards
4 Types of COPD
Chronic Bronchitis
Emphysema
Bronchial Asthma
Bronchiectasis
Define Chronic Bronchitis
Chronic cough
Sputum production minimum 3 months/year
For 2 Consecutive years
Smoking is the main cause of Chronic bronchitis in ___% of cases
90%
Chronic Bronchitis is due to hypertrophy of what?
The mucosa is infiltrated w/ lymphocytes, macrophage, and plasma cells, but no…
Surface epithelium may undergo metaplasia from columnar to…
Bronchial mucous glands
neutrophils
stratified squamous
Chronic Bronchitis can result in what type of heart failure?
*This leads to what?
Right heart failure
aka Cor Pulmonale
*venous stagnation/cyanosis
Blue Bloaters
Pink Puffers
Chronic Bronchitis
Emphysema
Blebs appear on the ____ surface of the lung
Bullae appear in the _____ of the lung
Both are associated with what?
pleural
parenchyma (greater than 1 cm)
Emphysema
What causes the actual breakdown of lung tissue in Emphysema?
Proteases from bacteria, PMN’s, monocytes, macrophage
*destroys Elastin/Reticular figers
Which COPD has Curschmann Spirals?
Bronchial Asthma
Bronchial asthma has many mucosal infiltrates which include…
Mucous sometimes contain whorls of shed epithelial cells called _______ which are seen microscopically
Eosinophils
Curshmann’s spirals
Bronchiectasis is a ______ of the bronchi
This is the most common complication of chronic _____
Bronchi/Bronchioles are filled with ______ that stagnates and can’t be cleared with coughing
Permanent Dilation
Chronic Bronchitis
Mucopurulent
Hx COPD, difficulty breathing, severe halitosis, respiratory attack, what does the pt have?
Bronchioectasis
2 Ways to get Emphysema:
Smoking
Genetic (Alpha 1 antitrypsin deficient)
Alpha 1 Antitrypsin is a ________
If you don’t have it what happens?
anti-protease
protease destroys lung tissue
***primary function is to neutralize naturally occurring proteases
As opposed to an Alpha 1 Antitrypsin deficiency, in a smoker what causes Emphysema?
Inflammatory mediators release elastases
Destroys elastic tissue of the alveolar sac
Usually COPD is related to Pneumonia and Oral Health via
Cigarette smoking
Onset of COPD is dependent on smoking (almost always) and repeated _________ can worsen the disease
______ bacteria can travel to the lungs
Teeth bacteria are ______ and lead to pneumonia in smokers w/ COPD
bacterial infections (pneumonia)
Periodontal
Strep Viridans
Genus, Species for legionella
It is a G___
American Legion in Philly caused pneumonia via inhalation from humidifiers, thus spread requires…
Legionella pneumophilia
gram negative rod
man-made water based environments
What Gram Positive is associated with Pulmonary Abscesses?
Stapylococcus aureus
*virulent organisms
Rust Colored Sputum:
Current Jelly Sputum:
**both cause pneumonias, remember, G-‘s can be just as bad as S. aureus
Pneumococcal/Streptococcus pneumoniae (Gram +)
Klebsiella pneumonia (Gram -)
4 different routes that can cause Pneumonias:
Airborne - inhalation of droplets
Aspiration of gastric infected particles
Aspiration of infected Upper Resp Tract (strep/staph)
Hematogenous spread - sepsis, UTI, GI infections
mycoplasma pneumonia =
mycobacterium tb -
Klebsiella
Tuberculosis
Interstitial pneumonias:
Broncho (alveolar) pneumonias:
Viral
Bacteria
Alveolar (broncho) pneumonia can be _______
Interstitial (viral) affects _____
diffuse/lobular
wall of alveoli
There is an association between ______ pneumonia and Periodontal Disease
This is b/c long-term ______ causes S. aureus, Pseudomonas, Kebsiella to gather in oral cavity
What happens to these pathogens?
nosocomial
Abx
Aspirated to lungs (poor cough/gag reflex)
TB stains how?
_____ acid that is anti-phagocytic
It causes what in the lungs?
Acid Fast
Mycolic
Caseating granulomas
2:
Most common portal of entry for TB:
Respiratory
GI
TB infecting Cervical Lymph nodes:
Scroffula
Initial lung lesion of TB that appears in the lower lobes:
_____ lung lesion draining to ______ (combines to form this thing)
Gohn Complex
subpleural, hilar lymph node
Primary TB starts with what?
***when pt First Exposed
Gohn Complex
Pott’s Disease is a form of ______ TB
TB can appear where?
Causing what?
milliary
Vertebrae (interevertebral joints)
Arthritis
