Question
Answer
noninvasive method of monitering SaO2   oximetry  
🗑
Fetal oxygen saturation monitoring   FSpO2  
🗑
Normal oxygen saturation for baby in the womb is between 30% and ___%   70  
🗑
the amount of light absorbed by oxygen-saturated hemoglobin is measured by the sensor to determine saturation levels   oximetry  
🗑
a machine that can measure air volumes   spirometer  
🗑
in spirometry values greater than __% of predicted values are considered normal   80  
🗑
most labs use _____ to measure diffusing capacity because of its great affinity for hemoglobin   carbon monoxide  
🗑
amount of air that can be forcefully expelled from a maximally inflated lung position   FVC  
🗑
volume of air expelled during the first second of FVC   FEV1  
🗑
in restrictive lung disease ______ should be measured   FEV1/FVC ratio  
🗑
maximal rate of air flow through the pulmonary tree during forced expiration   MMEF (maximal midexpiratory flow)  
🗑
MMEF volumes are lower than expected in   obstructive pulmonary disease  
🗑
MMEF volumes are normal in   restrictive pulmonary disease  
🗑
maximal volume of air a patient can breath in and out during 1 minute   MVV (maximal volume ventilation)  
🗑
MVV is less than the predicted value in   both obstructive pulmonary disease and restrictive pulmonary disease  
🗑
volume of air inspired and expired with each normal respiration   TV (tidal volume)  
🗑
maximal volume of air that can be inspired from end of normal inspiration   IRV (inspiratory reserve volume)  
🗑
maximal volume of air that can be exhaled after normal exhalation   ERV (expiratory reserve volume)  
🗑
volume of air remaining in the lungs following forced expiration   RV (residual volume)  
🗑
maximal volume of air that can be inspired after normal expiration   IC (inspiratory capacity)  
🗑
amount of air left in lungs after normal expiration   FRC (functional residual capacity)  
🗑
maximal amount of air that can be expired after maximal inspiration   VC (vital capacity)  
🗑
volume to which lungs can be expanded with greatest inspiratory effort   TLC (total lung capacity)  
🗑
volume of air inhaled and exhaled in a minute   MV (minute volume)  
🗑
Part of VT that does not participate in alveolar gas exhange   dead space  
🗑
Portion of air flow curve most affected by airway obstruction   FEF (forced expiratory flow)  
🗑
flow rate of inspired air during maximum inspiration. indicates large airway disease   PIFR (peak inspiratory flow rate)  
🗑
maximum airflow rate during forced expiration   PEFR (peak expiratory flow rate)  
🗑
typically used to detect the presence of hyperactive airway disease   methacholine or histamine challenge  
🗑
highlighted by perialveolar inflammation followed by fibrosis   interstitial lung disease  
🗑
Patients with COPD can be expected to have increased ______   RV and ERV  
🗑
these patients have reduced lung volumes, inpaired diffusing capacity, and exercise-induced hypoxemia   inhalant pneumonitis (farmer's lung, miner's lung)  
🗑
post-pneumonectomy no changes in ______ would be expected   air flow rates  
🗑
What studies are indicated in any person who snore's excessively; experiences narcolepsy, excessive daytime sleeping, or insomnia   sleep studies  
🗑
includes insomnia, sleep apnea, narcolepsy and RLS   dyssomnia  
🗑
includes sleep walking, sleep talking, sleep terrors, REM disorders   parasomnia  
🗑
the most common type of sleep apnea   obstructive  
🗑
obstructive sleep apnea is caused by relaxation of the   posterior pharyngeal muscles  
🗑
____ sleep apnea is characterized by a simple cessation of breathing   central  
🗑
frequent and irriversible need for sleep during daytime hours   narcolepsy  
🗑
acute sensation of discomfort during periods of inactivity making sleep difficult   restless leg syndrome  
🗑
causes patients to act out their dreams, these patients can vividly recall dreams   REM disorders  
🗑
inability to sleep   insomnia  
🗑
most common form of sleep disorder   insomnia  
🗑
in spirometry ____ impairments are defined by a low FEV1 and a low FEV1/FVC%   obstructive  
🗑
in spirometry _____ impairments are characterized by a proportional decrease in FEV1 and FVC, leading to a preserved FEV1/FVC%   restrictive  
🗑
_____ impairments will have a flattened flow-volume loop   obstructive  
🗑
disease associated with increased elastic recoil   lung fibrosis  
🗑
diseases associated with increased elastic recoil are associated with _____ FRC   decreased  
🗑
disease associated with decreased elastic recoil   emphysema  
🗑
diseases associat with decreased elastic recoil are associated with _____ FRC   increased  
🗑
extrinsic cause of restrictive lung disorder   obesity, pleural effusion  
🗑
Pulse oximetry is not accurate in using to titrate O2 therapy in   advanced COPD  
🗑
pulse oximetry of <___% at rest required for O2 therapy   88  
🗑
low DLCO with restriction can be seen in   interstitial lung disease, pneumonitis  
🗑
low DLCO with obstruction can be seen in   emphysema, cystic fibrosis, bronchiolitis  
🗑
low DLCO with normal spirometry can be seen in   anemia, pulmonary vasculitis, early interstitial lung disease  
🗑
This test records several body functions during sleep   polysomnography  
🗑
