Calculating Pack history Pack history Example 1 pack per day for 30 year =30 pack year history If I smoked 2 packs per day for 15 years=30 year history A patient with a 20 pack year history or longer will show early- stage COPD with PFT changes. 2 packs per day for 10 years=20 pack year history then 1 pack for 20 years=20 pack year so 20+20=40 pack year history total.

Smoking cessation should be addressed at every appt. Smoking is notable for being bad for your health and contributes to increased respiratory problems and increased mortality.

A.Bradycardia B.Shortness of breath C.Use of accessory muscles D.Sitting in a forward posture E.Barrel chest appearance The client with COPD often has a barrel chest appearance, is short of breath, and may use accessory muscles when breathing. These clients tend to move slowly and are slightly stooped. Usually they sit with a forward-bending posture. With severe dyspnea, they exhibit activity intolerance and activities such as bathing and grooming are avoided. Bradycardia is not anticipated. Normal to tachycardia is expected. Chronic, Intermittent, Reversible Bronchoconstricti on Inflammation & hyperresponsive https://www.wealthmeta.com/blog/rural-vs-urban-living-budgets-and-net-worth ness ASTHMA OVERVIEW Rural v. Urban Asthma Asthma is airway inflammation, followed by bronchospasm. Evidence for the diagnosis of asthma should be confirmed before starting controller treatment, if possible, to avoid inappropriate treatment or missing other important diagnoses and because diagnosis is often more difficult later. Results from clinical examination, including chest auscultation, may be completely normal. First, a clinical diagnosis starts with a history of respiratory symptoms (such as cough, wheeze, difficulty breathing and/or shortness of breath) that typically vary over time and intensity. Symptoms of asthma are often worse at night and in the early morning and may be triggered by factors such as viral infections, allergen exposure, exercise, strong smells, cigarette smoke, exhaust fumes and laughter. Asthma Pathophysiology Review Chronic disease that occurs intermittently Inflammation and airway tissue sensitivity Asthma Asthma is a chronic intermittent disease in which acute airway obstruction is reversible but has the potential to cause severe lower airway obstruction and death. Obstruction occurs by both inflammation and airway tissue sensitivity (Hyperresponsiveness) with bronchoconstriction. Well controlled asthma is fully reversible. Poorly controlled asthma (chronic inflammation) leads to airway damage and altered cellular regulation. Bronchospasm is the narrowing of the bronchial tubes by constriction of the smooth muscle. Small amounts of pollutants/viruses stimulate nerve fibers. This can profoundly limit airflow. Asthma Questions The following questions can be used to elicit features suggestive of asthma in young children and features that help support the diagnosis: Does your child have wheezing? Wheezing is a high-pitched noise that comes from the chest and not the throat. Use of a video questionnaire or asking a parent to record an episode on a smartphone if available can help to confirm the presence of wheeze and differentiate from upper airway abnormalities. Does your child wake up at night because of coughing, wheezing, or difficult breathing, heavy breathing, or breathlessness? Does your child have to stop running, or play less hard, because of coughing, wheezing or difficult breathing, heavy breathing, or shortness of breath? Does your child cough, wheeze or get difficult breathing, heavy breathing, or shortness of breath when laughing, crying, playing with animals, or when exposed to strong smells or smoke? Has your child ever had eczema, or been diagnosed with allergy to foods? Has anyone in your close family had asthma, hay fever, food allergy, eczema, or any other disease with breathing problems? Seasonal Irritants Illness Exercise ASA/NSAIDS https://www.verywellhealth.com/severe-asthma-attack-5206130 GERD ASTHMA TRIGGERS Asthma The symptoms of severe asthma can vary from person to person, but the following signs could indicate a severe asthma attack: Coughing, Nocturia coughing, coughing in the middle of the night Tightness in the chest Shortness of breath Wheezing Difficulty talking Blue lips or fingernails Feeling confused or agitated Symptoms that do not improve with medication ASTHMA Physical Assessment Audible wheeze Tachypnea, Accessory Muscle Use Non-productive cough Hypoxia Altered LOC, Tachycardia Tight chest SOB Chronic Asthma can have barrel chest Concept Application Which assessment findings does A.

Recommended for all including children, pregnancy, older adults High-dose flu vaccines for higher risk populations like seniors >65 yo, Quadrivalent Promote hand hygiene to reduce risk of spreading influenza. Other Precautions: Cover mouth and nose when sneezing or coughing. Flu Treatment Antibiotics are NOT effective to treat viral illnesses. Antivirals such as Oseltamivir (Tamiflu) have been effective in prevention and treatment. They can be given to high-risk adults to prevent infection before they are able to receive the vaccine. These drugs also limit infection duration and prevent viral spread. TO be most effective for treatment, they must be taken within 24-48 hrs. after symptoms begin. Rest and increase fluid intake. Most cases in immunocompetent adults are self- limiting. Concept Application Which action by the assisted A.

COVID-19 The CDC recommends several steps to identify and care for persons with suspected or confirmed COVID-19. Have masks available for patients to don before entering the health care facility Once identified, place a patient in a private room with the door closed for assessment. Limit the number of staff entering the room. All staff entering the room must don a N95 respirator, gown, gloves, face shield or goggles for eye protection Health care personnel entering the room should use standard precautions, contact precautions, droplet precautions, airborne precautions, and eye protection (goggles or a face shield) Have guidelines for the proper use of PPE displayed throughout the health care facility, dependent on area you work https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/apr/28/face-masks-coveted-commodity-coronavirus- pandemic PNA Pneumonia Vaccination can help prevent PNA. Two vaccines currently exist for prevention of PNA (PPSV23 & PCV13). The CDC recommends adults > 65 years be vaccinated with both. First PCV13, followed by PPSV23 12 months later. These recommendations HEALTH also apply to adults between 19-64 years old at high risk.
