Q

When is not obtaining a lower airway sample ok in a patient with suspect pneumonia?

A

If P has CAP, no history of pneumonia, and no recent history of receiving antibiotic therapy

you likely know the pathogen already with CAP and can treat with broad spectrum Abx

History of recent exposure such as being at a dog park, boarding, or going to daycare help make a presumptive diagnosis of

A. Viral pneumonia
B. Opportunistic bacterial pneumonia
C. MDR bacterial pneumonia

30

history is key to diagnosis

acute onset, fluid filled lungs from increased vascular permeability secondary to lung injury

32
Q

What type of fluid is seen with NCPE (non-cardiogenic pulmonary edema)

A

Protein rich (modified transudate)

Acute onset of dyspnea, cough, cyanosis, and hemoptysis are CS seen with?

A

NCPE (non-cardiogenic pulmonary edema)

34
Q

CS of respiratory disease often are chronic onset, exceptions are……

A

PTE or NCPE (non-cardiogenic pulmonary edema)

Caudodorsal interstitial and/or alveolar infiltrates

36
Q

Which of the following has a caudodorsal distribution that can be seen on radiographs?

B. NCPE
C. Bacterial pneumonia
D. Aspiration pneumonia

A

B. NCPE

37
Q

What is a commonly involved mechanism involved in the development on NCPE?

A

Increased vascular permeability secondary to lung injury

(results in protein rich fluid)

38
Q

Define ARDS

A

pulmonary inflammatory disorder characterized by non-cardiogenic pulmonary edema (NCPE), neutrophilic inflammation, and hypoxemia

39
Q

______________ is a pulmonary inflammatory disorder characterized by non-cardiogenic pulmonary edema (NCPE), neutrophilic inflammation, and hypoxemia
