Q

DVT

A

occlusion of a vein by a clot (thrombus) w/ secondary inflammatory reaction in the wall of the vein

trauma to endothelium of the vein wall exposes subendothelial tissues to platelets and clotting factors (thrombosis)

23
Q

varicose veins patho

A

valves become incompetent or veins more elastic

veins become engorged w/ stagnant blood

24
Q

angina chronic stable

A

classic

exertional

occurs @ predictable levels of physical and emotional stress

OK AT REST

25
angina diagnosis
history supported by sublingual nitroglycerin shortening attacks
26
heart block
rhythm arrythmia disorder of heartbeat caused by an interruption in the passage of impulses through the heart's electrical system
27
congenital heart disease
cyanotic acyanotic
28
cyanotic CHF
defects result from obstruction of blood flow to the lungs or mixing of venous and arterial blood within the chambers of the heart tetrology of fallot
29
tetrology of fallot
pulmonary stenosis large ventricular septal defect aortic communication w/ both ventricles right ventricular hypertrophy
30
barrel chest
advances cystic fibrosis
31
2 types of asthma
extrinsic intrinsic
32
extrinsic asthma
allergic result of an allergy to specific triggers
33
intrinsic
non-allergic no known allergic cause or trigger
34
bronchitis types
chronic (COPD) acute
35
chronic bronchitis
productive cough lasting for at least 3 months per year for 2 years
36
chronic bronchitis risk factors
irritants and smoking
37
patho chronic bronchitis
inflammation and scarring of bronchial lining
38
clin man chronic bronchitis
persistent cough and sputum production that causes SOB, prolonged expiration, recurrent infection
39
management of chronic bronchitis
reducing irritants and combo of bronchodilators
40
acute bronchitis
inflammation of trachea and bronchi that is short duration (1-3 weeks) result from chemical irritation or viral irritation
41
acute bronchitis symptoms
upper respiratory infection/cold when worsens leads to fever, irritating cough, sore throat, laryngitis, chest pain
42
viral acute bronchitis
non-productive cough aggravated by cold, dusty air
43
bacterial acute bronchitis
retrosternal pain aggravated by cough
44
radio-opaque lobe on CXR
lobar pneumonia
45
atelectasis
collapse of normally expanded and aerated lung tissue at the structural level
46
primary cause of atelectasis
obstruction of bronchus serving affected area air in the alveoli is slowly absorbed into blood stream w/ subsequent collapse of alveoli
47
how else can atelectasis occur
interference w/ natural forces that promote lung expansion direct compression
48
symptoms atelectasis
dyspnea, tachypnea, cyanosis, elevation of temp, drop in BP, substernal forces, shock
49
treatment atelectasis
re-expansion of lung chronic cases --> removal of segment/lobe
50
cystic fibrosis
inherited disorder of ion transport to exocrine glands NA and CL autosomal recessive trait --> mutation on chromosome 7 --> CFTR gene
51
CF patho
impermeability of epithelial cells to Cl- elevation of sweat electrolytes pancreatic insufficiency dehydrated and increased viscosity of mucus gland secretions in lungs, pancreas and sweat glands
52
CF presents thick mucus in
lungs pancreas liver
53
CF clin man
excessive appetite poor weight salty skin and sweat bulky stool that floats
54
diagnosis CF
sweat test sodium chloride conc under 20 --> >60 over 20 --> >80
55
treatment CF
protect the airway bronchodilators and glucocorticoids
56
prognosis CF
median age is 38.3 d/y pulmonary complications
