Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm
A.
Severe, life threatening, systemic, allergic reaction to a previously encountered antigen, characterised by syptoms of Airways, GIT & CV System, resulting in CV and/or Respiratory Collapse.
B.
Obstructive Pulmonary Disease characterised by difficult expiration
C.
Similar to Anaphylaxis, but NO systemic involvement. Hypersensitivity reaction to a previously encountered antigen, resulting in a non-systemic, non-life threatening localised reaction
D.
Ballooning of a weakened section of vessel wall on the abdominal aorta. Typically below level of lumbar vertebrae, potentially causing dissection &/or rupture of aorta, leading to profound shock and mortality.
E.
Occlusion of the Pulmonary vasculature by: thrombus, tissue fragment, fat or air. Impact depends on the extent of pulmonary blood flow obstructed,
Type the Question that corresponds to the displayed Answer.
incorrect
6.
Rapid progressive, life-threatening systemic inflammatory response to a bacterial infection as it enters the blood stream. Marked by fly-like symptoms, red petechial rash, resulting in multiple organ failure and CV collapse
incorrect
7.
A reversible hyperinflammatory disease of the small airways mediated by multiple trigger factors cause mast cell degranulation and release of inflammatory mediators. This is marked by mucosal oedema, bronchospasm and mucosal plugging.
incorrect
8.
LVF or myocardial dysfunction = ↓ in SV & ejection fraction Leads to ↑ in LVEDP & L atrial pressure ∴ pulm capillary pressure ↑ due to hydrostatic pressure overcoming oncotic pressure=fluid forced into alveolus Impaired Pulmonary compliance Surfactant
incorrect
9.
Life threatening, uncontrolled sympathetic reflex in patients with SCI at T6 or above, in response to external or visceral stimuli below the lesion sight. Causes imabalance between SNS and PNS, resulting in conditions associated with severe hypertension
Type the Question that corresponds to the displayed .
incorrect
10.
S/S - seal-bark cough, agitation, distress, cyanosis, spO2<92%, marked respiratory muscle use (sever), Lethargy (late)
