Q

normal flow volume curve

A

inspiration constant on lower portion of curve, upper portion shows peak expiratory flow at FEV1 then steady decrease in flow rate

Q

obstructive flow volume curve

A

whale
all volumes are higher
inspiration normal but PEF decreased due to increased resistance

Q

How does chronic asthma affect V/Q relation

A

decreases

17
Q

what structural changes does chronic asthma causes

A

smooth muscle hypertrophy and hyperlasia
angiogensis
mucus cell hyperplasia
airway wall thickness

18
Q

How can you block smooth muscle contraction

A

b2-agonists

M3 antagonist

19
Q

what are key pulmonary function test abnormalities in obstructive lung disorders

A

decreased vital cap with overall decreased flow rate
decreased peak expiratory flow rate
decreased FEV1/FVC
decreased V/Q
