ARDS
This type of lung disorder is caused by ARDS
Restrictive
This type of paralysis occurs in GBS
Flaccid
This is the hallmark symptom of myasthenia gravis
Fluctuating muscle weakness
Early ARDS ABG shows this acid-base disorder
Respiratory Alkalosis
This therapy is First-Line for GBS
Intravenous Immunoglobulin or Plasmapheresis
In ARDS, loss of this leads to alveolar collapse
Surfactant
GBS paralysis progresses in this direction
Ascending
Muscle strength in MG improves after this
Rest
Severe ARDS ABG shows this disorder
Respiratory Acidosis
This drug is commonly used to treat MG
Pyridostigmine
This membrane lines the alveoli in ARDS
Hyaline Membrane
This commonly occurs 1-4 weeks before GBS onset
Infection
These antibodies cause MG
Acetylcholine receptor antibodies
MG and GBS both show this PFT Pattern
Restrictive
Severe ARDS patients require this support
Mechanical Ventilation
ARDS Chest X-Ray shows this diffuse pattern
Ground-Glass Opacity
These reflexes are absent in GBS
Deep tendon reflexes
These muscles are affected first in MG
Eye/Face Muscles
This value decreases in neuromuscular respiratory failure
FVC
This ventilation strategy uses 6-8 mL/kg tidal volumes
Low Tidal Volume Ventilation
A PaO2/FiO2 ratio at or below this value defines severe ARDS
100
This percentage of GBS patients develop Ventilatory failure
10 to 30%
This condition occurs when respiratory muscles fail in MG
Myasthenic Crisis
This pressure measurement decreases in respiratory muscles weakness
Maximum Inspiratory Pressure
This FVC value indicates impending ventilatory failure
20 mL/kg
