25
how does age affect oxygenation function?
*decreased oxy* -increased work of breathing: expiration becomes active, should be passive (have to work harder to breath) -decreased gas exchange due to: decreased capillaries (where gas exchange takes place) decreased inspiratory lung volumes
26
how does age affect ventilation function?
*decreased vent* -ineffective cough (thicker secretions) -drier mucous membrane -delayed gastric emptying= increase aspiration risk -impaired mobility- impacts resp system -meds that decrease vent -tissues and airways more rigid/stiff; diaphragm moves less efficient=less air exchange
27
increased work of breathing causes?
decreased oxygenation
28
decreased gas exchange causes?
decreased oxygenation
29
what's included in a focused pulmonary interview?
-how is your breathing? -do you smoke? -what kind of house? (asbestos, older, stairs/levels, pets) -who does the cleaning? shopping? -what type of work? -chest pain? -cough? how long? productive? what color? -fume/smoke exposure? (pulmonary fibrosis) -most comfy position for breathing? -allergies? -travelled? (cryptoplasmosis encounters)
30
what does using accessory breathing muscles cause?
increased work to breathe
31
what are PACK years?
packs per day x years smoking ex. 1 pack per day for 30 years = 30 pack year hx *significant lung probs after 35 years
32
productive cough colors?
red - TB green - infection, bacterial pneumonia yellow - not so bad how much?
33
what term do you NOT use?
rales
34
involved in pulmonary assessment?
inspection auscultation
35
involved in inspection?
-resp rate -depth -pattern -work of breath -accessory muscle use -chest symmetry -skin color -surgical scars
36
adventitious sounds in ausculation?
wheezing crackles rhonchi
37
what do wheezes sound like?
continuous high pitched squeak or musical continuous sound *air moving through narrow or partially obstructed airway passages *heard on inhale and exhale *VENTILATION ISSUE* ex. asthma, obstruction, tumor
38
treatment for wheezes?
bronchodilator
39
what do crackles sound like?
fine, popping/crackling discontinuous sounds *air moving through wet secretions *causes alveolar collapse (pneumonia, fluid overload) *can be coarse or fine!
40
what does rhonchi sound like?
low pitched coarse continuous snoring quality *secretions in larger airways need to clear secretions through coughing or suction
41
how to cough for rhonchi?
- breathe in - 3 small coughs (work secretions up closer to exit) - breathe in - one big cough
42
noninvasive ways to check pulmonary function?
pulse ox chest x ray (lung outline) pulmonary function test (volume in 1 second, max expiratory pressure: blow as fast and hard as you can to measure volumes, also for vent)
43
what does pulse ox measure?
arterial hemoglobin, saturation of oxygen
44
when to do continuous pulse ox measurement?
if abnormal- less than 90
45
what is a pulse ox spot check?
on during vital reading then taken back off
46
what are the invasive way to assess pulmonary function?
arterial blood gas analysis (go into artery for sample: gives oxy, bicarb, ph, and co2= oxy and vent) bronchoscopy (tube into lungs)
47
what is SpO2? PaO2?
SpO2: saturation PaO2: partial pressure of oxygen (from invasive monitoring in ABG)
48
if spo2 is 70%, what is pao2?
40%
49
if spo2 is 80%, what is pao2?
50%
50
if spo2 is 90%, what is pao2?

51
if spo2 is 95%, what is pao2?

52
what is normal pao2?
60-80
53
tumors are?
vascular
54
what to do after lung tumor biopsy?
watch for blood, position them upright
55
interventions for adequate pulmonary functioning?
-smoking cessation -positioning (Fowler's is best [45-60]) -chest physiotherapy (cut hands and repeatedly tap area to loosen fluid= easier to cough up, several shallow huffing breaths then final forceful cough) -anxiety control -pursed lip breathing (for COPD- prolongs expiratory phase, inhale 2 exhale 4) -adequate fluid intake (hydrations thin secretions) -humidified oxygen -nutrition -resp meds -coughing and deep breathing -incentive spirometry

65
metered dose inhalers
delivers controlled dose of med with each compression of canister (regular inhaler)

dry powder inhaler
activated by patients inspiration
67
needed for metered dose inhaler to work properly?
spacer, wait 1-5 mins between sprays
68
