What is the defining characteristic of interstitial pulmonary fibrosis?

is it increased or decreased?
RV/TLC ratio

Increased

TLC decreases more than RV
What is the reason for the FEV1/FVC ratio to be increased in restrictive lung diseases?
Fibrosis holds airway open = lower airway resistance = prevention of dynamic compression

COPD = Shallow

RLD = Steep
What is the best test to diagnose restrictive lung disease?

Is it increased or decreased?
DLCO

Decreased by >80%

COPD
Late-inspiratory velcro crackles =?
Interstital fibrotic restrictive lung disease
If a chest x-ray shows "ground glass" infiltrates, what dz should you suspect?

What gross appearance should you expect of the lungs?
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis


Honeycomb appearance
In restrictive lung disease:

Is the FEV1/FVC increased or decreased?

Is the RV/TLC increased or decreased?
Increased or normal


Increased or normal
True or False

Clubbing only occurs in a L->R shunt?
False

ONLY in a right -> left shunt
What is the criteria for the development of cyanosis?
When > 5 grams of deoxygenated Hb are present in systemic capillaries
What is the cause of central cyanosis?

What is the cause of peripheral cyanosis?
Low ARTERIAL O2 saturation

Low CAPILLARY O2 saturation
True or False

All types of shock can cause cyanosis?
False

Septic shock – is a high cardiac output state w/ vasodilation
If a pulmonary emboli were to occur, at what level of the pulmonary tree would bronchopulmonary arterial anastomoses occur?
Terminal Bronchioles
True or False

Normally the pulmonary circulation has HIGH resistance?
False

It has LOW resistnace
What is the initiating insult in obstructive shock?
Sudden increase in RV afterload
Does PAWP increase or decrease in obstructive shock?
Remains normal b/c decreased LV filling is accompanied by decreased LV distensibility
Will a left MCA stroke cause the eyes to look towards the right or the left?
Eyes look towards the left ("away from the lesion") b/c it involves the frontal eye fields

Arm & Leg clumsiness/weakness
What are 3 possible causes of a coexisting UMN and LMN exam finding?
ALS

Cervical radiculopathy w/ myelopathy

B12 deficiency
