Pulm. ARDS + PH+ cor pulmonale (09-29) (2) Flashcards
UW. ARDS. Risk factors?
Infection, trauma, massive transfusion, acute pancreatitis
UW. ARDS. Patho. Lung injury –>?
fluid/cytokine leakage into alveoli
UW. ARDS. Patho. leaky capillaries ->
crushes alveoli
UW. ARDS. Patho. O2 barier?
Bigger diffusion barrier to oxygen.
Less surface area.
UW. ARDS. Patho - mcc?
Sepsis is associated with cytokines (IL-1, IL-6, TNF) which can activate inflammatory
cells that injure alveolar and capillary epithelium
UW. ARDS. Patho. accumulation of protein fluid –>
Protein rich fluid accumulates in alveoli which disrupts surfactant which leads to alveoli collapse.
UW. ARDS. Patho. V/Q mismatch.
.
UW. ARDS. clinical presentation?
Sick.
Hypoxemic.
Near drowning or septic shock.
PaO2/FiO2 (oxygen in blood/alveolar oxygen) <300.
Increased A-a gradient.
UW. ARDS. diagnosis. xray?
pulmonary edema and bilateral alveolar infiltrate.
UW. ARDS. diagnosis. PCWP (wrong).
.
UW. ARDS. diagnosis. what to do to rule out CHF?
BNP and cardio echo
UW. ARDS. diagnosis. echo findings, PCWP?
Normal or elevated LV function in ARDs.
PCWP is decreased or normal.
UW. ARDS. treatment?
Mechanical ventilation very important (yra algoritmas)
UW. ARDS. DPV. what are important measures of oxygenation?
FIO2 and PEEP is an important measure of oxygenation.
UW. ARDS. DPV. what affect CO2?
Respiratory rate and
tidal volume affect PaCO2
UW. ARDS. DPV. what ,,ventilation”?
Low tidal volume ventilation (LTVV)
UW. ARDS. DPV. what volume?
(6ml/kg of ideal body weight)
UW. ARDS. DPV. LTVV decreases
the likelihood of over distending alveoli and provoking barotrauma due to
high plateau pressures.
.
UW. ARDS. DPV. oxygenation. what starting FiO2, mechanism?
Adequate oxygenation: increasing FiO2 by the ventilator improves oxygenation; more than 60% is associated with oxygen toxicity but they are often provided high FiO2 after intubation and then weaned to below 60%.
UW. ARDS. DPV. PEEP mechanism?
Increasing PEEP also improves oxygenation by preventing alveolar collapse at the end of expiration; thereby decreasing shunting and the work of breathing.
UW. ARDS. DPV. what PEEP maybe nedded?
PEEP levels up to 15-20 cm of H20 might be necessary to maintain
oxygenation.
UW. ARDS. DPV. what is the goal of PO2?
The goal is PaO2 between 55 and 80 mmHg and an SpO2 between 88 and 95%.
UW. ARDS. DPV. prone and supine? duration
Prone for 16 hours, supine for 8 hours for mild disease and early in the course of
disease.
UW. ARDS. DPV.
Intubation –> Initial settings?
Oxygenation: FiO2 100 proc, PEEP 5
Ventilation: Vt 6ml/IBW, RR 14-18
UW. ARDS. DPV.
Intubation –> Initial settings –> Adjust
OXYGENATION
or VENTILATION.
.
UW. ARDS. DPV.
Adjust OXYGENATION –> PaO2 > 90 (hyperoxia)
Decr. FiO2
