- Joe Ritter, a 74-year-old retired bricklayer, has a 40-pack-year tobacco history and a history of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Today, he presents to the emergency department with reports of shortness of breath and difficulty breathing. He in respiratory distress with retracting respirations of 26 breaths/min, BP is 154/76 mm Hg, pulse is 120 beats/min, and temperature is 37°C. His skin color is pale gray, his chest is barrel-shaped, and he uses accessory muscles to breathe; he appears anxious and is sitting in a tripod position. His nail beds are bluish in color; his oxygen saturation by pulse oximetry is 72%. Chest auscultation reveals wheezes and decreased-to-absent breath sounds in bilateral bases. Hyperresonance is noted upon chest wall percussion. Chest x-ray showed atelectasis bilaterally in the bases. Mr. Ritter coughs with minimal amounts of clear sputum. (Learning Objectives 5 and 8) What is the pathophysiology related to this disease process in the aging…Joe Ritter, a 74-year-old retired bricklayer, has a 40-pack-year tobacco history and a history of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

He is currently on 2 liters of oxygen via nasal cannula and has been prescribed a new medication regimen. You observe that he is having difficulty using his inhaler properly. Options: a) Provide education on proper inhaler technique. b) Increase the oxygen flow rate. c) Switch to a nebulizer treatment. d) Encourage deep breathing exercises.
- A patient is undergoing surgery under general anesthesia. The anesthesiologist is using an inhalational anesthetic agent with vecuronium to augment skeletal muscle relaxation. After the surgical procedure, the anesthesiologist wants to use a drug so the patient can resume breathing on their own and be weaned off the ventilator. Which of the following drugs is the best for quick recovery in this patient? Answers A - E A Atropine B Dantrolene C Neostigmine D Sugammadex E Succinylcholine OMr. Chan is admitted to the emergency unit with shortness of breath. He had similar symptoms approximately 1 year ago with a chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) exacerbation requiring hospitalization. (a) What is obstructive lung disease? How does it affect the oxygen and carbon dioxide content in the arterial blood? (b) Describe how the obstructive lung disease can be diagnosed by the spirometer. (c) Mr. Chan’s lungs show a progressive destruction that is a form of COPD. (i) What is the name of the lung disease describing this form of COPD? (ii) Describe and explain the change in lung compliance, airway resistance and pulmonary ventilation. (d) Give one COPD exacerbation that Mr. Chan may experience. How can it affect pulmonary function?Stan has poorly controlled chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and has suffered from frequent bouts of aspiration pneumonia. During your clinical evaluation at bedside, you notice that Stan is on oxygen and exhibits a rapid breathing rate. He complains of dyspnea, or air hunger, during tidal breathing that worsens upon physical exertion. Stan also complains that his dyspnea worsens during meals. Given Stan's history of frequent aspiration pneumonia, what reason might consider as a primary cause?
