Summary Introduction
To discuss:
The names, the major cause, and the pathology of chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases.
Introduction:
The primary vital organs of the respiratory system are the lungs. Pulmonary ventilation is also called as breathing. It is the process of air flow into the lungs. It involves inhalation, also known as breathing in and exhalation, also known as breathing out. During inhalation oxygen is taken up by the lungs and transported by the blood to the tissues. The carbon dioxide from the tissues transported through the blood to the lungs for removal. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is an obstructive lung disorder where shortness of breath and breathing problems occurs.

- LF, a 34 year old white male, presented to the emergency room complaining of acute and severe shortnessof breath and intense chest tightness. LF’s speech was choppy and breathing was very rapid and erratic,punctuated by noticeable wheezing. LF’s medical records included the results of pulmonary functiontesting he had undergone six months beforeHis medical records also indicated prior admission for respiratory symptoms and a history of poorly-controlled asthma.LF received high-dose bronchodilator medication through use of a valved holding chamber. This wasfollowed by intravenous glucocorticoids and nebulized bronchodilators every two hours for a twelve-hourperiod, followed by nebulized bronchodilators every four hours for a forty-eight hour period.After discharge from the hospital, LF was provided a take-home flow meter to monitor his lung function.Table 4 shows LF’s PEFR results during a 30-day period.Table 4.

He has been keeping the head of the bed up for most of the day and night to facilitate his breathing which has resulted in lower back pain. Acetaminophen (Tylenol) was not effective in reducing his pain, so the health care provider has prescribed oxycodone/acetaminophen (Percocet) one to two tablets PO every four to six hours as needed for pain. Mr. Asare is on 2 liters of oxygen by nasal cannula. He can receive respiratory treatments of albuterol (Proventil, Ventolin) every six hours as needed. Mr. Asare needs someone to walk beside him when he ambulates because he has an unsteady gait and often needs to stop to catch his breath. CASE STUDY The nurse enters the room and finds Mr. Asare hunched over his bedside table watching television. He says this position helps his breathing. His lung sounds are clear but diminished…arrow_forward
- Mrs. Jones, a 59-year-old white female greeted you at the door with complaints of shortness of breath after cleaning her dusty closet. You are seeing her for a home visit because she was just discharged from the hospital for exacerbation of her chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). She had similar symptoms approximately a week and a half ago from an exacerbation of her COPD. Mrs. Jones past medical history is significant for coronary artery disease, myocardial infarction, COPD, hypertension, peripheral vascular disease, tobacco usage, and obesity. You heard wheezing on expiration when you auscultated her chest. The patient has two metered dose inhalers (MDI) prescribed to her- Proventil inhaler 2 puffs every 4-6 hours and Beclomethasone Dioprionate inhaler two puffs, once daily. Her other medications aside from the MDI's, include hydralazine 50 mg by mouth, 3 times per day, hydrochlorothiazide 25 mg by mouth daily, aspirin 81 mg by mouth daily, clopidogrel 75 mg by mouth daily,…arrow_forwardIntroduction to Corona in general (the definition of Corona, in the introduction we talk about when it began, the symptoms, and how the symptoms affect the individual.arrow_forwardDisorders of the Respiratory System Grid Name of Condition Which specific part of the body is affected?
