Study Notes

Week 4

Chapter 22

  • Dry cough is a common sign of viral pneumonia

  • Immunosuppression is a risk factor for active pulmonary TB

  • Productive cough and parenchymal infiltrates on x-ray are signs/symptoms of bacterial pneumonia

  • Mycobacterium tuberculosis is the organism that causes TB

  • Ghon tubercle is a x-ray finding in TB

  • IgE is associated with inhaled allergens in asthma

  • Inflammation, mucosal edema, and bronchoconstriction are associated with allergic form of asthma

  • Lack of alpha-1- antitrypsin in emphysema can lead to alveolar destruction

  • Hypersecretion of mucus in chronic bronchitis is a result of recurrent infection.

  • All obstructive pulmonary disorders are characterized by resistance to airflow.

  • Extrinsic vs. Intrinsic asthma

  • COPD leads to barrel chest due to air trapping

  • Emphysema has a destruction to the alveolar walls due to the release of proteolytic enzymes from immune cells

  • Chronic bronchitis leads to cor pulmonale due to increased pulmonary vascular resistance 

  • Bronchoconstriction, bronchial mucosal edema, hypersecretion of mucus, and hypoxemia are associated with acute asthma attack

  • Chronic inflammatory disorder, airway responsiveness, genetic susceptibility, and airway remodeling are all characteristics of asthma

  • Use of accessory muscles, expiratory wheezing, coughing, and feeling of chest tightness are all part of an acute asthma episode

  • Status asthmaticus is a life-threatening complication of asthma

  • Thick mucus, fibrosis, and smooth muscle hypertrophy are all parts of airway obstruction in chronic bronchitis

  • Productive cough is seen in patients with chronic bronchitis

Chapter 23

  • Hypoxemia is the hallmark for acute respiratory distress syndrome

  • Tracheal shift and respiratory distress are a sign for pneumothorax

  • Inhalation of organic substances are a cause of Hypersensitivity pneumonitis 

  • Pneumothorax and ARDS are types of restrictive respiratory disorders

  • Air that enters the pleural space during inspiration but is unable to exit during expiration leads to tension pneumothorax 

  • Loss of alveolar walls, immunological in nature, and “honeycomb” appearance on x-ray are all part of interstitial lung disease

  • Presence of CD4+ cells, non-productive cough, granulomas, fatigue, weight loss, and fever are all common characteristics of sarcoidosis

  • Dyspnea, diminished breath sounds, and tracheal shift are clinical manifestations of pleural effusion

  • Infant respiratory distress syndrome is caused by a lack of surfactant.

Chapter 24

  • Magnesium-aluminum antacids being a risk factor for hypophosphatemia

  • Hyperparathyroidism is a risk factor for hypercalcemia

  • Hypocalcemia and hypomagnesemia both increase neuromuscular excitability.

  • Diarrhea can cause metabolic acidosis

  • Confusion is a sign of hypernatremia

  • Muscle weakness and cardiac dysrhythmias are manifestations of moderate to severe hypokalemia

  • Chronic alcoholism is a cause for hypomagnesemia

  • Decreased urine output is a symptom of clinical dehydration

  • Decreased antidiuretic hormone can cause hypernatremia

  • Confusion, lethargy, coma, and perhaps seizures are clinical manifestations of hyponatremia

Chapter 25

  1. The relationship of metabolic alkalosis and hypokalemia

  2. Hypoventilation is the compensation for metabolic alkalosis

  3. The respiratory system compensates for metabolic acidosis and alkalosis. 

  4. Hyperventilation can cause respiratory alkalosis

  5. Headache is an early sign of metabolic acidosis

  6. Respiratory acidosis includes an increase in carbonic acid

  7. Renal compensation for respiratory acidosis is shown by elevated bicarbonate ion concentration.

  8. Hypoventilation can lead to respiratory acidosis

  9. Kidneys are not able to excrete carbonic acid
