PTA 2.3 Flashcards

1
Q

whats heart rate reserve + use for?

A

MHR - RHR = HRR
calculates target HR (THR), ideal range in which your heart should be beating for a given intensity

use karvonen formula to calcualte this
THR = (HRR x %intensity) + RHR

e.g. moderate intent: 40-59% of HRR
high intensity 60-89% of HRR

e.g. for me
MHR = 195
RHR = 50
HRR= 145
For
moderate : (145 x 0.59 ) + 50= 135.5 (using upper limit, 59% mod int)
vigorous: (145 x 0.89) + 50 = 179

Q

when do you use ACE inhibitors and why

A

medications that help relax the veins and arteries to lower blood pressure.

use after loading, exercising to decrease BP, dilate arteries for easier transport of blood and less stress on the heart

Q

name most important pulmonary diseases ?

A

COPD, asthma

107
Q

describe COPD and ASTHMA

A

COPD: treatable disease, with persistent respiratory symptoms and airflow limitations due to airway or alveolar abnormalities - usually caused by signif. exposure to noxious particles eg from smoking

108
Q

COPD and bronchi- whats the relation?

A

obstruction of bronchi (lower airways)

due to
- hypersecretion of mucus (bronchitis)
- decreased airway diameter due to eg inflammation (asthmatic bronchitis)
- collapse of airways - emphysema due to changes in intrapleural pressure (emphysema)

109
Q

pathophysiology of COPD

A

increased inflammatory response to inhaled noxious particles and gasses

110
Q

name 2 things that happen to lung parenchyma in COPD patients

A

loss of alveolar attachments and loss of elasticity

111
Q

GOLD stages describe what? and what type of patients is this system used for

A

for COPD patients
describes airways restrictions

stage 1 - FEV1 %pred >80
stage 2 - FEV1%pred 50-80
stage 3 30-50
stage <30

112
Q

in NL patients are most commonly GOLD stage _ ?

A

stage 2 so FEV1 50-80^%predicted

113
Q

whats an exacerbation

A

sudden worsening, beyond normal day to day variations

114
Q

whats airtrapping

A

extra air trapped in lungs, thorax stays in a position of inspiration-> functional weakening of the diaphragm

115
Q

whats atelectasis?

A

collapse of alveoli behind obstruction

116
Q

whats cor pulmonale

A

right sided heart failure.
enlargement of R ventricle due to high BP in lungs

117
Q

atopy

A

predisposition to develop specific antibodies (IgE) to innocent trigger

118
Q

is hayfever a specific or nonspecific reaction? how about cold, viral infections, smoke?

A

hayfever: specific

the rest: non specific, no interference of IgE

119
Q

what do u use to open airways in asthma patients and how does this work regarding FEV1?

A

bronchodilators
FEV1 increases

120
Q

in asthma is FEV1 lower or higher in mornings?

A

lower

121
Q

3 mechanisms to alleviate dyspnea

A
  1. decrease airway resistance
  2. strengthen respiratory muscles
  3. strengthen cardiorespiratory system
122
Q

how can you decrease airway resistance

A

Bronchodilators (opens airways) + rehab (endurance) -> best endurance capacity results

123
Q

whats hyperinflation

A

trapping of air inside the lungs

124
Q

describe Pursed Lip breathing: cons, pros, function

A
  • increases resistance when you breath out BUT generate pressure in airways so prevent collapse

improves physical capacity, moderate effect on dyspnea

125
Q

weak inspiratory muscles: what do you use to determine this?

A

MIP device : maximal inspiratory pressure
if its <70% of predicted then need IMT (need to train pressure inside airways)

tools: breath against resistance- trains inspiratory muscles:
powerbreath
threshold

126
Q

IMT: FITT?

A

F: 5x a week, 2x a day, minimum for 4 weeks
I: 30-50% PImax
T: deep fast inhalations, i:out 1:3
total ±5mins

127
Q

explain postural adjustments

A

bending forward a bit: to lengthen diaphragm; use accessory breathing muscles - if ure sitting means also lower load on legs so can be used in breathing

128
Q

Oxygen saturation and max exercise test

A

if theres >4% drop in SpOs - possible candidate for O2 supplementation

start exercising only if resting SpO2>=90%

if during exercising SpO2 <85% = refer to GP

SpO2 <90% after exercising: monitor

129
Q

hows mucus and mucus glands in COPD patients?

A

mucus: much thicker
mucus glands: hypertrphic

130
Q

how does physical exercise contribute to mucus transport?

A

increases airflow, ventilation
increases excursion of lung tissue
stimulates lung parenchyme and airways

131
Q
