Patho Final (part 2)

Nightingale College Pathophysiology Final Part 2 of 3

QuestionAnswer
_____ is a pulmonary disease that causes increased co2 concentrations in the arterial blood. Caused by hypoventilation of alveoli from a decreased drive to breath or respond to ventilation stimuli Hypercapnia

In a _____ pneumothorax, air is able to move back out and the lung only partially collapses Open
In a _____ Pneumothorax a one way valve is formed. Air enters but can't leave and the lung is compressed. Causing atelectasis and displacement of organs. This condition is life threatening. Tension
_______ is when there is fluid in the pleural space usually from blood or lymph vessels Pleural Effusion
Decreased oncotic pressure in blood vessels from cardiovascular, liver or kidney disease leads to this watery type of pleural effusion Transudative
Increased capillary permeability from infection, inflammation or malignancy leads to pleural effusion full of white blood cells and plasma protiens Exudative
Pnumonia, infection, abscess and infected wounds can lead to puss filled pleural effusion. This is called ________ Empyema
Trauma, surgery, rupture or malignancy that damages the blood vessels leads to a blood filled pleural effusion called Hemothorax
Trauma surgery, infection or a disorder of the lymp transport system can lead to a pleural effusion filled with Chyle -a milky fluid containing lymph and fat - this is called.... Chylothorax
Collapse of lung tissue is called a Atelectasis
______ atelectasis is when external pressure from a tumor, fluid or air in the pleural space or abdominal distension presses on the lung causing alveoli collapse Compression
________ atelectasis also called ________ is from obstruced or hypoventilated alveoli as air is gradually absorbed out of the lungs into the blood Obstructive or Absorption
_______________ or __________ atelectasis results from decreased surfactant that reduces the surface tension of the alveoli. Usually seen in premature infants and serious lung injury from aspiration, ARDS, anethesia and mechanical venitlation Surfactant impairment or adhesive
Dyspnea, cough, fever, leukocytosis are all symptoms of ________ which may be mistaken for infection Atelectasis
Deep breathing, frequent position changes and early ambulation post surgery can all prevent Atelectasis
Inflammation and injury to the alveolocapillary membrane leading to pulmonary edema. Characterized by three microscopic lung changes - exudative, proliferative, fibrotic ARDS - Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome
Inflammation and imbalance between porteases and antiporteases, oxidative stress and apoptosis which leads to the destruction of alveoli due to the breakdown of elastin with in the septa Emphysema
Lesions in large air spaces (bullae) and lung tissue (blebs) which causes difficult expiration and air trapping. This leads to an increased work to breath and hypoentilation with possible cor pulmonale Emphysema
Chronic pressure overload in the right ventricle which increases the work load leading to hypertrophy. This eventually progresses to dialation and failure of the Right Ventricle Cor Pulmonale
A cancer that arises from the glands of the lungs Adenocarcinoma of the lung
Tobacco smoking and cancer predisposition lead to tumor development. Once cancer cells are triggered tumor development is promoted by growth factors that alter cell growth and produce inflammatory mediatiors Adenocarcinoma of the lung
The classic symptom of __________________ is a productive cough. Patients will always have prolonged expiration. Latent disease will have dyspnea Chronic Bronchitis
Common symptoms of __________ include h/o smoking, cyanosis, chronic hypoventilation, polycythemia and cor pulmonale. They may also occasionally have a barrel chest and intermittent wheezing Chronic Bronchitis
The classic symptom of ___________ is a barrel chest and patients will always have prolonged expiration . Latent disease will show chronic hypoventilation, polycythemia and cor pulmonale Emphysema
________ patients may also have dyspnea, wheezing and a h/o smoking and sometimes cyanosis. If they have an infection they will also have a productive cough. Emphysema
This disease only shows symptoms when it is active. Symptoms appear gradually and go unnoticed until the disease is advanced Tuberculosis
Symptoms of ____ include fatigue, weight loss, lethargy, anorexia, afternoon low grade fever, slowly developing cough, purulent sputum, night sweats, anxiety, dyspnea, chest pain and hemoptysis TB
Kidney stones, tumors of the kidney and compression or strictures from kidney tumors can lead to Obstruction of the upper urinary tract
Calcium Oxolate phosphate, struvite, uric acid and crystaline are all types of Kidney Stones
The treatment for _________ is based on the presenting symptoms, location, severity of obstruction and associated obstructive neuropathy Kidney Stones
Managing pain, promoting passage, reducing the size of stones and preventing new stones is how you treat Kidney Stones
Reducing urine ___________ by increasing flow rate and adjusting the _____ of urine can prevent stone formation concentration / Ph
Bladder dysfunction caused by a neurological disorder is called Neurogenic Bladder
Medications to stimulate bladder emptying, intermittent and indwelling caths are used to treat Neurogenic Bladder
Neurogenic bladder leading to detrusor hyperreflexia caused by stroke, TBI, MS, hydrocephalu, Cerebral Palsy, Alzheimers and brain tumors -- is from and injury to what part of the spine C2 and Up
