restrictive pulmonary diseases and pulmonary rehabilitation Flashcards
what is restructive lung restrictive
these are diseases or deformities that restricts the expansion of the lung due to internal and external reasons
causes of restrictive disorders
interstitial lung disease
chest wall diseases
pleural diseases
space occupying lessions
atelectasis
non thoracic causes
atelectasis
this is the collapsing of some or all of the lung tissue, deaeration,shrinkage
pleural disease include
pneumothorax
hemothorax
pleural effusion
causes of atelectasis
anesthesia
foreign body in the airway
lung disease
polonged bed rest
various physiotherapy for pneumothorax
small pneumothorax= bed rest for several days
wide pneumothorax=insert tube and breathing exersice for 3secs
what is pleural effusion
this is the collection of fluid in the pleural cavity
what is hemothorax
collection of blood in the pleural cavity
what is the aim of physiotherapy for pleural effusion
lung ventilation
exercise tolerance
ensuring full expansion of the affected lung
prevents the formation of adhesion between two pleural layers
acute inflammation of alveolar cavity is
pneumonia
what is the aim of ‘physiotherapy for pneumonia
to increase the lung expansion
to clear secretions from the lungs
restore exercise tolerance and physical fitness
reduce bronchiospasm
what is the interstitial lung disease
these are multiple diseases that affects the interstitial area of the lung
signs and symptoms of intersitital lung disease
dyspenea
cough
chest pain
rales
crackles
what is pulmonary edema
these are fluid collections in the alveolar sacs
what are some chest wall diseases
trauma
kyphoscolisis
ankylosing spondylitis
neuromuscular diseases
