Restrictive lung disease

Question 1

In RLD lungs are —–, difficult to —–, and lung compliance is —-

Answer 1

1. stiff
2. difficult to expand
3. decreased

Question 2

These 4 Lung volumes are decreased in RLD

Answer 2

IRV
tidal volume
ERV
residual volume

Question 3

In RLD these 3 capacities are reduced

Answer 3

Total lung capacity
vital capacity
Functional residual capacity

Question 4

breathing is increased due to greater —– pressure

Answer 4

transpulmonary

Question 5

T or F: RLD is not a disease

Answer 5

True
it’s a dysfunction

Question 6

PFT in RLD: FVC

Answer 6

FVC ≤ 80%

Question 7

PFT in RLD: FEV1

Answer 7

FEV1 = low but FVC decline greater than FEV1

Question 8

PFT in RLD: FEV1/FVC ratio

Answer 8

FEV/ FVC ≥ 80%

Question 9

clinical signs of RLD are decreased breath sounds, lung volumes and capacities, —– ( related to R sided HF), hypoxemia, —— (related to the thing with R sided HF), and tachypnea

Answer 9

cor pulmonale
pulmonary HTN

Question 10

symptoms of RLD
( how will this pt. population present)

Answer 10

Dyspnea
cough
weight loss
muscle wasting

Question 11

Infant respiratory distress syndrome is caused by

Answer 11

not enough surfactant produced

Question 12

Some causes of RLD

all these intuitively reduce the space in the lungs / decrease airflow

Answer 12

1. pulmonary embolism
2. pulmonary edema
3. pneumonia
4. atelectasis
5. pleural effusions
6. sarcoidosis

Question 13

Which is more common small lung cell cancer or non small cell cancer ( NSCLC) ?

Answer 13

NSCLC

small cell = super aggressive

Question 14

which type of cancer is divided into subcategories: adenocarcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and large cell cancer

Answer 14

non small cell cancer

Question 15

T or F: pregnancy is a cause of RLD

Answer 15

true
decreased chest wall compliance due to downward excursion of diaphragm

Question 16

In pregnant woman decreased chest wall compliance due to
—– excursion of diaphragm

Answer 16

decreased exursion of diaphragm

Question 17

This is the primary complication of irradiation to thorax ( hint: radiation something)

Answer 17

radiation penumonitis and fibrosis

Question 18

T or F: energy conservation techniques and chest wall stretching is for RLD

Answer 18

true
