What accelerates onset of dypnea by 15 yrs in alpha 1 protease inhib deficiency?
Cigarette smoking
How is alpha1 protease inhib def inherited?
Autosomal recessive
What diseases develop/associated w/ alpha 1 prot inhib def?
Emypsema, asthma, chronic airway inflammation
When do symptoms occur for pts w/ Alpha 1 prot inhib def?
3rd-4th decade
What’s ratio of protease: anti-protease in lung?
1:1
What organs involved in alpha1 prot inhib def?
Lung, liver, skin (panniculitis)
Which genotype accounts for most of lung disease?
piZZ
What does null refer to in A-1PID?
Complete lack of production of protein, not associated w/ liver disease
Which genotype associated w/ liver probs?
ZZ
What does smoking do to intrapulmonary proteinase inhibitors?
Causes oxidnt inactivation
When is it indicated to do replacement therapy for pts w/ A1 PID?
Only adult pts whose serum concentrations < 0.8 g/dL AND FEV1 b/w 35-65 or annual decline of FEV1 > 100 mL;
-not recommended for liver diz
How are 4 forms of pulmonary alveolar proteinosis in kids inherited?
1. Congenital errors of surfactact
2. Aq’d PAP w/ and w/o anti GMCSF
3. Idiopathic
4. Secondary (infx, malignancy, environmental)
What’s the therapy for symptomatic pulmonary alveolar proteinsosis ?
5. Whole lung lavage
Whates role of GMCSF in PAP ?
6. Help in surtactant metabolism;
7. –along w/ ABCA3:
How dx PAP?
-Lung bx confirms dx; presence of anti-GMCSF in BAL and serum;
HRCT: crazy paving; lung fx: restrictive pattern w/ low DLCO
What are causes of pulm edema? 4
Increased microvascular pressure scecondary to CV diz (DAD)
-high altitude pe.
-Neurogenic
-Lung re-expansion
** others: due to postcapillary pum venous obstruction; altered pulm endothelial cell permability
What are sx of pullm ed0ma?
Tachypnea secondary to hypoxemia and stimulation of J receptors; crackles; bronchodilator responsive rhonchi and wheezes; rtx – due to poor compliance;
-resp failure
How tell diff from cardiogenic vs non cardiogenic pulm edema ?
Cardiogenic: large heart**; inverted pulm blood flow distrib**; peribonchial cuffs; pleural effusion** very common!!;
What’s driving forces that promote fluid influx from cap bed into interstitial spaces?
-increased driving pressure (PAOP > 12 and/or greater than pulm artery diast pressure
-increased permeability
-both
What happens to v/q in pulm edema?
v/q mismatch; also can cz small airway obstruction , wheezing; impaired lympatic draininage
What does pulm edema do to pulm vascular resistance ?
Increases it
What happens to oncotic pressure and its reslationship w / pulm vasc pressure and its ~ to pulm edema?
Low oncotic pressure reduces pulmonary vasc pressure at which pulm edema develops
What does pulm edema do to airway resistance ?
Increases it
What does PEEP do to pulm edema?
Redistributes but doesn’t reduce lung water content in pts w/ pulm edema
What predisposes a patient to pulm emboli/infarction?
Virchow’s triad: stasis, endothelial injury; hypercoaguability
What’s causes of PE in kids?
Central line -2/3 causes; risk factors: immobility, trauma, surgery, infx, malig; CHF; IBD; estrogen, preng
What’s supportive tx for pulm edema?
Reverse hypoxemia; reduce preload (sitting, postivie pressure vent); sedation (decreases preload, afterload); decrease plasma volume (Diureteics)limit salt/water
What genetic diz predisposes kids to PE?
Factor V leiden def; prothrombin gene mutations; antithrombin def; protein s/c def; combined defects increased plasma lipprotin
Child presents w/ tachypnea, cough, crackles, hemopsysis, tacchy; accentuated second heart sound, sudden collapse; what’s dx?
Pulm embolis; hx/o central venous cath
Pt w/ pain, swelling, discoloration of affected limb, superior ena cava syndrome: ?
Sign of DVT
What’s best dx test do get for detecting PE?
Spiral ct/helical ct/ angiograpy or V/Q scan
What dx tests help w/ PE?
D – dimer; cbc w/ leulocytosis; non specific ST segment and T wave changes;
CXR: atelectasis; pleural effusion
What meds are good to give pts to prevent pulm embolism in immobilized pts?
Low molec weight heparin
