Q

PS/ CPAP?

A

Pt. initiates breath with a preset inspiratory pressure to aid in WOB. – pressure support, continuous pressure – constant flow of positive pressure to help

24
Q

A/C:

A

Tidal Volume and RR rate are preset. Can take added breath at preset Vt. – minimum minute ventilation – can be generated by patient whenever they want – pressure applied when he breathes. Also set up a predesired parameters but can be over ridden. Can become hyperventilation. (respiratory alkalosis)

25
Q

SIMV:

A

Partial ventilatory support with some mandatory breaths. – synchro intermittent mandatory ventilation – patient spontaneously breaths – positive pressure with breath – pt controlled RR, given to decrease breathing work – preset TV with each breath plus mandatory breaths in between

26
Q

APRV:

A

(Airway Pressure Release Ventilation). Release in pressure to allow expiratory phase. Helpful in ARDS when compliance is reduced.

27
Q

how is alveolar recruitment treated?

A

> incentive spirometry (visual aid devices/games),
positive epiratory pressure therapy (PEP)
Intermittent positive pressure breathing (IPPB)= most aggressive

28
Q

what is Lupus?

A

systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE): multi-system autoimmune disease, increased production of autoantibodies, immune complexes cause diffuse, widespread inflammation in the joints, skin,brain, kidney, heart. Ppl usually die from heart or pulmonary complications.

29
Q

what type of lung impairment is common after cardiac surgery?

A

left lower lobe atelectasis

30
Q

what is significant to know for PTs who are working with a patient who has had an anterior lateral thoracotomy?

A

pec major has been cut and serratus anterior seperated

31
Q

what mm are cut in a lateral thoracotomy?

A

serratus ant. and latissimus dorsi is moved around and messed with

32
Q

who is a candidate for a carotid endarterectomy?

A

> symptomatic pt with carotid stenosis of greater than or equal to 50-70%
or asymptomatic with stenosis of 60%

33
Q

what do pacemakers correct?

A

arrhythmias, 2nd or 3rd degree heart blocks, tachycardias and bradycardias

34
Q

which pacemakers are used with LBBB and severe heart failure

A

tripolar pacing system- leads in R atrium, R vent. and L vent.

35
Q

what is an implantable cardioverter defibrillator? (ICD/ shock box)

A

designed to correct-life threatening arrythmias- decects and corrects all tachycardias, bradycardias and V. fibs

36
Q

who benefits most from an ICD?

A

ppl with LVEF less than or equal to 30%

37
Q

absolute contraindications for organ transplant?

A
>active malignancy within 2 years
>HIV
>untreatable psychiatric condition
> non operable CV condition
>DM with microvascular disease
>chest wall or spinal deformity
38
Q

relative contraindications for organ transplant

A

> irreversible renal dysfunction
severely limited functional status with poor rehab potential
morbid obesity

39
Q

how do they decide who gets an organ when one is available?

A
heart= person who needs it most
lung= first come first serve basis
40
Q

PT after transplant?

A
transfers
ambulation
ADLs
strength and ROM
pulm. hygiene and chest wall mechanics
41
Q

how soon after an organ transplant can u do a PT eval?

A

12-36 hours

42
Q

how high can u push a patient after an organ transplant?

A

MET level 1-3

43
Q

what is normal MAP?

A

70-110 mmHg

44
Q

what is too low for MAP to provide adequate purfusion pressure?

A

less than 60 mmHg

45
Q

intermittent mandatory ventilation (IMV)

A

preset breath rate

pt can take optional breaths

46
Q

syndchronized intermittent mandatory ventilation (SIMV)

A

mandatory breaths plus optional ones with assistance

* avoid stacking because only mandatory if not breathing on their own

47
Q

pressure support ventilation (PSV)

A

when patient inhales the ventilator supports it

48
Q

inspiratory hold

A

provides a hold during inhalation, for hyperventilation and restrictive lung disease

49
Q

positive end expiratory pressure

A

applied at end of expiration to prevent alveolar collapse

50
Q

when is positive end expiratory pressure

A

emphysema
ppl in shock
pulmonary edema

51
Q

expiratory retard

A

prolongs expiration phase

52
Q

who needs expiratory retard?

A

COPD

53
Q

constant positive airway pressure- CPAP

A

constant pressure throughout inspiration and expiration to keep airway open (sleep apnea)

54
Q

when should bronchodilators and aerosolized antibiotics be taken in conjunction with postural drainage and percussion?

A

bronchodilators= BEFORE

aerosolized antibiotics= AFTER

55
Q

4 stages of an effective cough

A

1) inspiration greater tidal volume
2) closure of the glottis
3) abdominal and intercostal mm contract
4) sudden opening of glottis and air forced out

56
Q

what population of pts has trouble with coughing?

A

obstructive lung diseases

57
Q
technique for helping cough? 
Pump cough:
breath holding: 
pursed lip breathing:
diaphragmatic breathing:
A

3 huffs then 3 short coughs, repeat x3 until spontaneous coughing begins
holding inhale may help too.
pursed lip breathing helps ppl with obstructive disease by controling exhale

58
Q

small breath=?
medium breath?
large breath?

A

small breath= small cough
medium breath= med. cough
large breath= large cough
