| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| a virtual space between individual alveoli | interstitium |
| from inhalation of silica | silicosis |
| The chest film will reveal diffuse rounded opacities, Contraction of the lungs may occur, Upper lung zones are primarily affected | coal miner's lung |
| black lung | coal miner's lung |
| occupational lung disease caused by the inhalation of dust | pneumoconiosis |
| Most commonly associated with mining, insulation, shipbuilding, cement mixing and sandblasting related occupations | silicosis |
| Higher rate of pulmonary tuberculosis in ____ patients | silicosis |
| Hilar lymph nodes calcify forming “eggshell” calcifications on chest films | silicosis |
| may lead to pleural disease characterized by plaques, effusion and fibrosis | asbestosis |
| Mesothelioma, Bronchogenic Carcinoma are malignancies caused by | asbestosis |
| “Pleural Plaques” are seen on chest films | asbestosis |
| diagnosis is based largely on the history of exposure and latency period. 20-30 year exposure history | asbestosis |
| Allergic pulmonary condition caused by inhalation of organic materials | Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis |
| Known causative agents include bacteria, molds, human and animal proteins and resins | Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis |
| Abrupt onset of fever, cough & dyspnea within 4-8 hours of exposureInfiltrates in the mid-to-lower lung distributionResolution within 24 hours, after removal from exposureOften mistaken for community-acquired pneumonia, treated with antibiotics | Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis |
| Characterized as lung injury caused by the inhalation of nitrogen dioxide gas | Silo-Filler’s Disease |
| Approximately ___ of patients admitted to the burn unit have pulmonary injury due to smoke inhalation | 1/3 |
| Carbon monoxide and cyanide poisoning impairs oxygenation causing tissue hypoxia | smoke inhalation |
| Ensuing airway edema and mucosal sloughing occurs | smoke inhalation |
| Routine use of corticosteroids and antibiotics has not been proven to be effective in treatment of | smoke inhalation |
| Topical administration of epinephrine may be used to reduce airway edema | smoke inhalation |
| The death rate among patients experiencing severe burn and inhalational injuries can be >__ | 50% |
| _____ cannot differentiate carboxyhemoglobin from oxyhemoglobin. | pulse oximetry |
| CO has a ____ higher affinity for hemoglobin than does oxygen | 250 X |
| ____ deposits in the alveoli and the interstitium results in irriversible fibrosis | Fibrin |
| Loss of functional alveolar-capillary units,Impaired gas exchange that leads to hypoxemia and hypercapnia, Impaired lung compliance (stiff lungs)Progresses into Restrictive Lung Disease: smaller lung volumes and capacities (TLC, Tidal Volumes) | interstitial lung disease |
| Patchy “Ground Glass” appearance, Reticular (network) pattern, Honeycombing (thick-walled cystic spaces) in the lung periphery | interstitial lung disease |
| A nodular inflammatory lesion that may contain epithelial cells, phagocytes or macrophages | granuloma |
| A form of coagulation necrosis | caseating |
| A systemic disease of unknown origin characterized by granulomatous inflammation of the lung | sarcoidosis |
| Systemic disorder involving multiple organ systems,Highest incidence in black women, Onset in the 3rd decade of life | sarcoidosis |
| Elevated ESR, Leukopenia, Elevated ACE levels (40-80% prevalence) | sarcoidosis |
| Requires tissue biopsy of a lymph node showing non-caseating granulomas | sarcoidosis |
| Long-term corticosteroid therapy, ACE levels will tend to drop | treatment for sarcoidosis |
| A condition characterized by the presence of vasculitis and granulomatous lesions affecting the respiratory tract and kidneys | Wegener’s Granulomatosis |
| Small vessel vasculitis, Granuloma formation inflammation, Necrosis | triad of symptoms for Wegener’s Granulomatosis |
| Nasal septum perforation, crusting and ulceration may present, Deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary emboli are common, “Saddle Nose” deformity is a late stage finding | Wegener’s Granulomatosis |
| Idiopathic condition involving alveolar (lung) hemorrhage and rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis | Goodpasture's syndrome |
| Most prevalent in men within the 3rd and 4th decade of life, Pathology is linked to glomerular antibodies | Goodpasture's syndrome |
| Immunosuppressive Therapy is treatment for | Goodpasture's syndrome |
