Chapter 22.4, Problem 3AYLO
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’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.

- _________ is the chronic respiratory disorder caused mainly by cigarette.arrow_forwardPROFILE OF PATIENT Mr. Asare is a 75-year-old male admitted with an exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (emphysema) at Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital. 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_forwardDisorders of the Respiratory System Grid Name of Condition Which specific part of the body is affected?
