        Help!  

Question
Answer
show Substance that reduces adhesion.  
🗑
show Rheologic property characteristic of solids; it is represented by the storage modules G'.  
🗑
show Medication meant to increase the volume or hydration of AW secretions.  
🗑
show Macromolecular description of pseudoplastic material having both viscosity and elasticity.  
🗑
show Protein with attached oligosaccharide units.  
🗑
Mucin   show
🗑
show Term connoting any medication or drug that has an effect on mucus secretion; may include mucolytic, expectorant, mucospissic, mucoregulatory, or mucokinetic agents.  
🗑
show Medication that increases cough ciliary clearance of respiratory secretions.  
🗑
Mucolytic agent   show
🗑
show Drug that reduces the volume of AW mucus secretion and appears to be especially effective in hyper secretory states, such as brochorrhea, diffuse panbron, chiolitis (DPB), CF, and some forms of asthma.  
🗑
show medication that increases viscosity of secretions and may be effective in therapy of bronchorrhea.  
🗑
show Secretion, from surface goblet cells and submucosal glands, composed of water, proteins, and glycosylated mucins. The glycoprotein portion of the secretion is termed mucin. Mucus (noun) is the secretion; mucous (adjective) is the cell or gland type.  
🗑
show Sugar that is the individual carbohydrate unit of glycoproteins.  
🗑
show Purulent material in the AW. From the greek word from inflammation. When expectorated, phlegm is called sputum.  
🗑
Rheology   show
🗑
show Macromolecular description of the respiratory secretion in true solution, with the physical property of viscosity (usually referred to as the periciliary layer)  
🗑
show Expetorated Phlegm that contains respiratory tract, oropharyngeal, and nasopharyngeal secretions and bacteria and products of inflammation including polymeric DNA and actin.  
🗑
Viscosity   show
🗑
Mucoactive therapy should be considered when?   show
🗑
show Lubricates, waterproofs and protects against osmotic or inflammatory changes.  
🗑
show Entrap microorganisms, inhibiting chronic bacterial infection and biofilm formation.  
🗑
show N-acetylcysteine (NAC) Dornase Alpha Aqueous aerosols: Water, Saline Hyperosmolar (7%) saline  
🗑
show Bronchitis, efficacy not proven for any dose of NAC for an lung disease  
🗑
show CF  
🗑
Indications for Aqueous aerosols: Water, Saline   show
🗑
show AW clearance (Mucokinetics) for therapy of CF  
🗑
Dosages for N-acetylcysteine (NAC)   show
🗑
show SVN: 2.5mg/2.5mL ampoule, 1 ampoule Q day  
🗑
Dosages for Aqueous aerosols: Water, Saline   show
🗑
Dosages for Hyperosmolar (7%) saline   show
🗑
show Mucomyst  
🗑
show Pulmozyne  
🗑
Brand Names for Aqueous aerosols: Water, Saline   show
🗑
show Hyper-Sal  
🗑
The AW secretion consists of?   show
🗑
Drugs that effect Mucociliary clearance?   show
🗑
What do Epithelial ion do in the AW?   show
🗑
CF AW secretions contain how much Mucin?   show
🗑
What does a CF AW consist of?   show
🗑
What are the physical properties of mucus?   show
🗑
What 3 drugs are approved by aerosol to modify AW secretions?   show
🗑
Classic mucolytics   show
🗑
What drug does not improve mucus clearance when given as an aerosol and should not be used as a mucoactive agent?   show
🗑
What antibiotics is NAC (Mucomyst) incompatible with?   show
🗑
show Expectorants or mucokinetic agents.  
🗑
Other agents that modify AW secretions:   show
🗑
show Reduction in the volume of mucus secretion in patients with CB.  
🗑
show Staged breathing with small tidal breaths from expiratory reserve volume, repeated until secretions collect in central AWs.  
🗑
show The PT breathes through a mouth piece that delivers high-flow mini bursts at rates exceeding 200 cycles/min.  
🗑
show large volume variable frequency are pulse delivery system attached to an inflatable vest worn by PT.  
🗑
Pts with long-term problems of secretion management should?   show
🗑
