Conditions Caused By Pulmonary Disease Or Injury

Front 1

Increased carbon dioxide in arterial blood, __, is caused by drug depression of the r__ center, em_, due to physiologic dead space

Back 1

hypercapnea
respiratory
emphysema

Front 2

Reduced oxygenation of arterial blood leads to __, which is caused by __ to __ shunts in RDS or at__.

Back 2

right-to-left
atelectasis

Front 3

This condition results from being grossly obese, lateral bending and rotation of spine, arthritis of spine, depression of the sternum, and causes compromised ventilation and decreased tidal volume

Back 3

Chest wall restriction

Front 4

Results from a fracture of the ribs/sternum, and causes compromised ventilation.

Back 4

Flail chest

Front 5

Caused by a rupture of pleura or chest wall or spontaneous rupture of pleura blebs in which air or gas in pleural space to collapse the lung partially or completely.

Back 5

Pneumothorax

Front 6

Pathology includes transudative or exudative fluid in the pleural space collapsing the lung partially or completely. Causes include fluid from blood or lymphatic vessels from CHF, hypoproteinemia, trauma that damages blood vessels.

Back 6

Pleural effusion

Front 7

"Pus in the pleural space" caused by bacterial pneumonia, surgical complications, tumor obstruction.

Back 7

Empyema

Front 8

Collapse of lung tissue caused by external pressure from tumor, fluid, or air in pleural space; abdominal distension; bronchi obstruction; inhalation of concentrated oxygen or anesthetics

Back 8

Atelectasis

Front 9

Persistent abnormal dilation of bronchi caused by obstruction of airway, atelectasis, infection, cystic fibrosis, tuberculosis, weakness of bronchial wall

Back 9

Bronchiectasis

Front 10

Inflammatory obstruction of bronchioles caused by chronic bronchitis, infection, inhalation of toxic gases

Back 10

Bronchiolitis

Front 11

Fibrotic process occludes airways and scars lungs caused by same stuff as bronchiolitis; commonly seen after lung transplantation

Back 11

Bronchiolitis obliterans

Front 12

Fibrous or connective tissue in lung caused by scar tissue following ARDS, tuberculosis, or inhalation of dust or asbestos

Back 12

Fibrosis

Front 13

Inflammation of airways, alveolar and capillary damage, pulmonary edema caused by inhalation of smoke, ammonia, hydrogen chloride, sulfur dioxide, chlorine, phosgene, and nitrogen dioxide; prolonged levels of high concentration of oxygen

Back 13

Toxic gas exposure

Front 14

Fibrous tissue or nodules in lungs caused by silicosis (inhalation of silica), anthracosis (inhalation of coal dust), asbestosis (inhalation of asbestos)

Back 14

Pneumoconiosis

Front 15

Lung inflammation or hypersensitivity pneumonitis caused by inhalation of allergens: grains, silica, bird droppings, feathers, cork dust, animal pelts, molds, mushroom compost

Back 15

Allergic alveolitis

Front 16

Excess water in lungs caused by:
- Heart disease increases pulmonary capillary hydrostatic pressure, so fluid moves into interstitium
- ARDS or inhalation of toxic gases injures capillaries and increases permeability
- blockage of lymphatic vessels by congestive heart failure (CHF), edema, or tumors

Back 16

Pulmonary edema

Front 17

What is the most common type of lip cancer?

Where does it usually develop?

Back 17

squamous cell carcinoma

outer part of the lip along the vermilion border

Front 18

What is the most common type of laryngeal cancer?

Where does it usually develop?

What symptom is the most significant symptom for laryngeal cancer?

Back 18

squamous cell carcinoma

carcinoma of the glottis is more common than that of the epiglottis, aryepiglottic folds, arytenoids, and false cords.

Progressive hoarseness
