| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What cell types does Reactive Airway Disease (Asthma) affect | Mast cells Eosinophils T Lymphocytes |
| Inflammation causes increase in | bronchial hyper response |
| obstructive airflow is due to | Inflammation Bronchospasms mucus plugging |
| with Reactive Airway Disease pt. has decrease in | tidal vol and expiratory vol. |
| Ph abnormalities seen in Reactive Airway Disease are d/t | increase in # of poorly ventilated alveoli increase in hypoxemia CO2 retention Resp acidosis |
| decrease in Ph and increase in CO2 build up results in | poor ventilation |
| Asthma triggers | Aspirin smoke cold air pollutants |
| What type of medications are used for maintenance of Asthma | inhaled antiinflammatory (steroid) mast cell inhibitors leukotriene modifiers |
| Name a mast cell inhibitor | Cromolyn |
| Name a leukotriene modifier | Singulair |
| Name 4 common inhaled steroids | Flovent Advair Pulmicort Azmacort |
| What does Leukotrienes do in the body | cause increase in mucus and tighten airway muscles (chemical response) |
| when in "yellow" (caution) of action plan what line of drugs to use | SABA-Short Acting Beta Agonist |
| When in "RED" of action plan what should pt. do | continue to use SABA and go to ER |
| Name one SABA | Albuterol |
| Name 2 corticosteroids used in treatment of relief of or rescue for asthma | Prednisone Beclomethasone (short term) |
| What anticholinergic is given in the ER | Atrovent |
| Cystic Fibrosis is what type of disorder | hereditary autosomal recessive trait; affecting 1:4 among carriers (both parents have the trait) |
| what are the manifestations of CF | malabsorption of nutrients by pancrease increased viscous mucus production Mucus gland secrets thick protein that accumulates and dilates the glands 1st manifestation is meconium ileus increase sodium chloride (sweat) |
| What are some physical findings of child with CF | clubbing of fingers increase resp with cyanosis productive moist cough barrel chest poor perfusion poor gas exchange |
| What are some findings other findings in child with CF | FTT freq URI malabsorption of fats and proteins mild malodorous diarrhea steatorrhea (fatty stools) |
| How is CF diagnosed | Sweat test (normal chloride <40 meq) pancreatic enzymes (tripsin and lipase)tripsin absent in 80% |
| How to manage CF | prevent and TX infection chest physiotherapy physical exercise dietary supplement (enzymes with meals) |
| What characteristics characterize Croup | Inspiratory stridor Barky cough hoarseness |
| what is the BIG 3 referring to in Croup | group of viral and bacterial syndromes laryngotracheobronchitis bacterial tracheitis epiglottitis |
| Is epiglottitis viral or bacterial | Bacterial |
| Is Croup viral or bacterial | both |
| what medication groups treat Croup | Beta agonist: bronchodilators to relaxe bronchi and bronchioles muscels corticosteroids:Dexamethasone (Decadron) |
| Name a beta agonist used with croup | Racemic Epi |
| What other interventions are used with croup | O2 with humidityy meet fluid and nutrional needs non carbonated non acid drinks |
| What does RSV stand for | Respiratory Synctial Virus |
| How is RSV diagnosed | nasal swab |
| What are manifestations of RSV | start out as URI progress to resp distress d/t infection of bronchial mucosa leading ot obstruction |
| Therapeutic regimen for RSV | bronchodilators steroids beta agonists |
| Name 2 medications given to children with RSV | Synagis Palivizumab IM RespiGam (RSV immune globin) |
| is RSV contagious | yes. place pt. on droplet and contact isolation |
| decreased ventilation can lead to respiratory acidosis. what lab values showes resp acidosis | increased blood CO2 and decreased pH |
| Give example of what lab values would look like for someone in acute resp acidosis | pH < 7.35 PaCO2 > 45 HCO3 22-26 (normal) |
| What lab value would increase if someone was partly compensating for resp acidosis | the HCO3 would increase |
| If pH was normal but PaCO2 and HCO3 were elevated in resp acidosis this would mean what | Body is compensating |
