Restrictive Lung Disease Flashcards
During the 3rd trimester, pregnancy has what effect on the diaphragm, causing a decrease in what lung volume?
Decreased downward excursion of diaphragm causing a decreased in ERV and increased breathing work
What hormone level is increased during pregnancy causing an increase in ventilator drive?
Progesterone
Shortness of breath can also be defined as:
Dyspnea
T/F: High levels of oxygen for greater than 1 day can lead to interstitial lung disease
True
Increased muscle tone in and around an incision following surgery is defined as ______
Muscle splinting
What traumatic causes can lead to restrictive lung disease?
Crush injuries: rib fracture, lung contusion, frailty
Penetrating wounds: pneumothorax, hemothorax
Pulmonary laceration: pneumo and hemo
Thermal trauma- inhalation injuries, direct burn to thorax
Define hemothorax
entry of blood in pleural space
leads to VQ mismatch, decrease lung compliance, atelectasis
Define pneumothorax
entry of air into pleural space
leads to decreased lung volumes, VQ mismatch, impaired gas exchange
Autoimmune disease affecting both the kidneys and the lungs in which the immune system attacks healthy tissue. Hemoptysis the most common symptom
Goodpasture’s syndrome
Sternum protrudes ant, d/t childhood asthma and septal heart defects
a. Kyphoscoliosis
b. Pectus excavatum
c. Pectus carinatum
Pectus Carniatum
There will be no pulmonary compromise
Congenital, caved in sternum, respiratory s/s uncommon
Pectus excavatum
Kyphoscoliosis will increase or decrease dynamic lung volumes and capacities?
Decrease
Kyphoscoliosis patient will have ____ and _____ with a curve >120 degrees.
a. chronic alveolar hyperventilation, pulmonary hypotention
b. chronic alveolar hypoventilation, pulmonary hypertention
b. carbon monoxide will be abnormal
T/F: Ankylosing Spondylitis will have pleuritic chest pain but normal ABGs
True: commonly has decreased VC, IC and increased RR and FRC
Progressive degenerative myopathy common in boys starting in pelvic girdle and progressing to shoulders. Will have waddling gait, toe walking, frequent falls.
Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy
muscular hypertrophy and necrosis with regeneration
A common cause of death within Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy patients is: ___________
respiratory failure
Disease in which autoimmune system attacks ACH receptors at neuromuscular junction
Myasthenia Gravis
Muscular Dystrophy will have increased or decreased lung volumes?
Decreased
Myasthenia Gravis will have increased or decreased lung volumes?
Decreased, and decreased breath sounds
Demyelinating disease of motor nerous of peripheral nerves
GBS
T/F GBS patients may develop respiratory failure
True
