Patho RDS Flashcards
What’s RDS?
Life-threatening condition where the lungs cannot provide enough oxygen for the rest of the body
What’s the two main types?
NRDS affects new born <28 days
ARDS affects any age >28 day days اسمه زمان كان adults
The second name of neonatal respiratory distress syndrome? Why?
Hyaline Membrane Disease due to formation of highline membrane
What are the risk factors of NRDS?
PRIDAGE اختصار كوبري (جسر)
PR premature before 36 week
I incompletely developed lungs
D decreased in body weight
G Gestational age عمر الحمل
50% in babies born at 26-28 weeks
25% in babies born at 30-32 weeks
Infants born from uncontrolled diabetic mothers
What’s the cause of RDS? ⭐️
- Immature and damaged pneumocytes II
- pulmonary surfactant deficiency
What is surfactant? and its benefits?
- Surfactant is a complex molecules of lipids &
glycoproteins which are produced by type II pneumocytes
& their functions is to decrease the surface tension in the
alveoli. - It helps the prevention of the terminal air-spaces
atelectasis . - Atelectasis = Partial or complete lung collapse
What is the pathophysiology of NRDS
? ⭐️⭐️
They are 7 steps???
1 immature or damaged of pneumocytes type two
2 inadequate amount of surfactant
3 collapsed alveoli
4 compensatory over distended alveolus
5 hypoxia alveolar cell damage
6 endothelial damage formation of hyaline membrane
7 hyaline membrane lining and filling the alveoli >more hypoxia> high CO2 > acidosis
Hyaline gross appearance of NRDS?
(Waxy-appearing) hyaline
membranes line the collapsed
alveoli of the lung.
The lungs show collapsed
alveoli, compensatory over-
distended alveoli, bleeding &
damage of the airways
Hyaline microscopic appearance of NRDS?
Hyaline membranes: An
eosinophilic amorphous(structureless) material
lining / filling the air spaces.
Collapsed alveoli alternating with
compensatory over distended alveoli
(emphysema)+ congested capillaries.
Important!! What are the components of hyaline membrane? ⭐️
fibrin + cellular debris (necrotic pneumocystis)+ RBCs +
neutrophils + macrophages
The neonatal patient can manifest many signs?
ES/ TTCE يعني دزي T مثقلة 😸
Tachypnea. Tachycardia. Chest wall recession ينشفط على جوا لان كولابس
Expiratory grunting sound and cyanosis
LS/ RF with hypercapnia»_space;high pCO2
Apnea
Complication?? Of NRDS
CAAR
What’s ARDS?
It is severe lung disorder with marked gas
exchange impairment.
What cause ARDS??
ARDS 😛
Which of the 3 is the most common cause? SRA سرى ليلي على الطاري ⭐️
Sepsis THE MOST IMPORTANT!!!
Road traffic accident with severe multiple trauma
