- Alan has been smoking for the past 20 years and has been experiencing some shortness of breath and a cough. His physician, Dr. Anthony, sees him. The physician orders a lung capacity test and a chest X-ray. Explain COPD and emphysema.arrow_forwardDon Paladio had been a pharmacist in New York City. He retired to Florida and spent the better part of everyday swimming in the Gulf. He was healthy and strong. Gradually, however, his years of smoking began to compromise his lung's capacity. Soon, he could not swim at all. He enjoyed the beach from under his umbrella. Eventually, the trips to the beach were not possible. The diagnosis was pulmonary emphysema and COPD. Oxygen was needed, and his activities were diminished to cooking dinner for his wife and himself. Don was embarrassed about the oxygen tank and would no longer go out in public. He died when he was 85. 1.Discuss the impact of both diseases in Don's life 2.What, if anything, could have been done to make his suffering less difficult? 3.Identify characteristics of such long-term chronic illnesses that are particularly difficult. ***INCLUDE CITATIONS IN MLA 9TH EDITION PERDUE OWL***arrow_forwardThis patient’s dysphonia is due to laryngospasm, which should resolve within 8 to 10 days.

What is Dimitri’s problem?arrow_forwardBrian recently started working as a paramedic, and yesterday was his first day off. Because it was a bright and sunny day, he decided to go for a quick run along the river on the East Village pathway. As he was nearing Chinatown, he noticed an elderly lady having difficulty breathing. People started to gather around her to see if she needed any help. Brian's heart started to beat faster, and he started to sprint toward the lady. When he arrived, he checked her vital signs and asked someone to call 911. His pupils were dilated to obtain as much visual information as he could gather from the lady in distress.

- Mr. Wallace, a 65-year-old male with a history of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), is experiencing a COPD exacerbation. 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.arrow_forwardMr. 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?arrow_forwardStan 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?arrow_forward
