Resp Path Gomez structural Flashcards
Bronchopulmonary sequestrations (2)
No normal airway connection, no pulmonary circulation,
Extra lobar - outside lung tissue (other cong defect)
Intralobar - Recurrent Inf, Bronchiectasis, acquired
RDS (newborn) (definition, causes, and intrauterine induction) Risk with O2
Lack of surfactant. Mom anesthesia, DM, C section, cord wrapped around neck. To induce give move steroids.
Risk - retinopathy with O2 administration
L/S ratio
Lecithin/ sphingomyelin ratio, Used to tell maturity of lungs through amniocentesis.
2 both lungs are mature
Bronchopulmonary dysplasia. Time frame, Dx req, factors involved
Req 28 days of O2 therapy and age >36 weeks.
Alveolar hypoplasia
Decreased VEGF
Increased TNF, iL-8
Cystic Fibrosis (genes, Signs, Dx, clinical presentation)
CFTR Gene absent or missing,
508 heterozygosity (70%)
DX - Sibling w/ CF, ^ sweat Cl on 2 occasions, Nasal Ion transport, ID of mutations.
Immunoreactive trypsinogen-pancreatic protein elevated
Clinically - recurrent infections and salty sweat
Pancreatic insufficiency, Decreased ADK vitamins
Atelectasis - 3 types
Compression - Fluid pneumo, Mediastinum away
Resorption - Obstruction, air past obstruction will get absorbed by blood, lung will shrink and mediastinum toward
Contraction - Fibosis/scarring
Acute lung injury (4 criteria)
Acute dyspnea, Hypoxemia, Bilateral infiltrates, No Hx of heart failure
Adult ARDS (describe, cells, hemodynamic state, Conditions associated with(4))
Alveolar/capillary wall dmg w/ neutrophils. 2º loss of surfactant, (d/t loss of type 2 pneumocyte)
Prothrombotic
Sepsis, Gastric Aspiration, Head injury, diffuse pulmonary infection
Acute interstitial pneumonia
Similar presentation to ARDs but no causative disorder identified (basically idiopathic)
Chronic Diffuse Lung Disease (2 types)
Obstructive - Low FEV/FVC (COPD, emphysema, bronchiectasis, astham, chronic bronchitis)
Restrictive - normal FEV/FVC (Obesity, ard, fibrosis)
Emphysema (3 of 4 types and associations)
Centriacinar/centrilobular (95%) - SMOKING Upper Lobar (bronchi)
Panacinar/Panlobar - SMOKING, Alpha-1 antitryptase deficiency, Lower Lobes (Bronchi to Alveoli)
Distal Acinar - Pneumothorax (alveloi)
Emphysema MOA and inhibitor, Clinical presentation
Neutrophils release elastase to degrade tissues in lungs, (inhibited by alpha 1 antitryptase
Clinical - Low FEV/FVC, Barrel chest, Punk Puffers, High TLC
Random increased air conditions
Compensatory - Removal of one lung
Obstructive overinflation - Water heater thing
Interstital emphysema - sounds like rice crispies
Chronic Bronchitis (Dx time frame, histological findings, physiological findings, Leads to ?)
3 months/year for 2 consecutive years
Hyperplasia of goblet cells, Bronchiectasis, Increased Reid index (Ratio of glands to total thickness >.4 = hyperplasia) , Bronchiolitis obliterans
Leads to cor pulmonal
Asthma (definition, inducers)
Partially reversible - bronchiodilaters,
Aggravations - Cold, exercise, allergens
Can lead to fibrosis
Type 1 asthma ( factors to know)
Hypersensitivity - IgE, increased TH2, Eosinophils
Drug induced asthma
Primarily aspirin, leukotriens can produce bronchoconstriction
Curschmann Spiral
Asthma - shed epithelium
Bronchiectasis
Permenant dilation, recurrent infections, Cystic fibrosis
Kartageners
Cystic fibrosis, situs inversus, ciliary retardation, Male infertility
Categories of chronic interstital lung disease
Usual interstital pneumonia, Nonspecific interstital pneumonia, Cryptogenic (unsure of cause), Pneumoconiosis, Sarcoidosis, Eosinophilic pneumonia,
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis/ Usual interstital (cells, inhibited factor, Clinical)
Hyperplasia of Type 2 - increased mucous, Inhibition of caveolin allows deposition of collagen
Clinical - Digital clubbing (bone enlargement d/t hypoxemia and nonspecific ), honeycomb lung
