| True or False. It is necessary for Cystic Fibrosis patients to take enzyme substitutes and Vitamin Supplements? | True |
| The Diet of a Cystic Fibrosis Patient should consists of? | A Diet low in fat, high in protein, and a high caloric intake |
| What is the # 1 Respiratory Problems associated with Cystic Fibrosis? | secretion mobilization |
| True Or False: Vigorous bronchial hygiene with aerosolized medications and CPT is not needed on a daily basis with Cystic Fibrosis Patients? | False |
| What is given to Cystic Fibrosis patients to help improve the clearance of secretions | Mucolytics |
| This Test may be ordered when babies are not creating enough sweat to perform a sweat test or malnourished infants? | Immunoreactive trypsinogen test |
| This is a protein that, when elevated, indicates pancreatic insufficiency | trypsinogen |
| 2 positive immunoreactive trypsinogen tests would be indicative of this type of disease? | Cystic Fibrosis |
| This drug breaks down the DNA of mucus to aid in the removal of secretions? | Dnase, Alpha Dornase, Pulmozyme) |
| An inflammatory Process caused by a microorganism that primarily affects the gas exchange area of the lungs (moving away from the airways into the parenchyma)? | Pneumonia (Pneumonitis) |
| The Term Used to explain when WBC’s go to infected area to engulf and destroy bacteria? | Surface phagocytosis) |
| Atelectasis is especially common in this type of pneumonia? | aspiration pneumonia |
| What are the anatomical changes caused by Pneumonia? | 1)Effusion 2) alveolar consolidation 3) Atelectasis – especially in aspiration pneumonia Necrosis/scaring of lung tissue |
| This is term that explains when serum (the liquid part of the blood) & RBC’s from capillaries (capillaries get leaky) flow into alveoli | Effusion |
| What does a positive “Sweat Test” or iontophoresis actually measure? | Does not measure the amount but the concentration of sodium and chloride in sweat. |
| Normally the volume of sodium chloride is? | 18 mEq/L; volume of sweat is normal; content is abnormal |
| Children with measurements > _____Eq/L would be positive for CF | > 60mEq/L |
| Adults with measurements > _____Eq/L would be positive for CF | 80mEq/L |
| What other than WBC's go to infected area to remove debris | Macrophages |
| When the Alveoli fill up with junk (dead white blood cells, macrophages) Alveolar _____________ is said to occur | consolidation |
