23
Q

Chronic Bronchitis

path

A

proximal airway w/o parenchymal injury

*mucus/squamous metaplasia = obstruction

24
Q

Emphysema vs Bronchitis

A

EMPHYSEMA

  • Dyspnea>cough
  • few infection
  • low elastic recoil

BRONCHITIS

  • Cough>Dyspnea
  • Infection
  • Cor Pulmonale
  • Normal elastic recoil
25
Q

BODE index

A
  • Body Mass index
  • Obstruction of airflow (FEV1)
  • Dyspnea
  • Exercise-capacity = 6 minute walk test
26
Q

Immune Types 1-4!!!

A
  • Type I = IgE (asthma)
  • Type II = Cytotoxic, IgG
  • Type III = Immune complex
  • Type IV = Cell-mediated
27
Q

Status asthmaticus

A
  • marked mucus plugging
  • air trapping
  • dyspnea + death
28
Q

Asthma

path

A

Sensitization =

  • Type I IgE-mediated
  • CD4 T cells = release IL-4/5 cytokines—> IgE—> mast cell + eosinophil recruitment

UP histamine, prostaglandins, leukotrienes

29
Q

Bronchiectasis

s/s

A

abnormal dilation from obstrucion
