Injury to tendon
sTrain = Tendon
Neuro manifestations of decreased gas exchange x3
1) Altered LOC
2) Dizziness
3) Lightheadedness
4) Headache
5) Restlessness
6) Anxiety
7) Seizures
8) Coma
How is pneumonia diagnosed?
Chest xray
The 2 conditions that fall under the COPD umbrella
1) Chronic bronchitis
2) Emphysema
OA
CV manifestation of impaired gas exchange, name 3.
1) Capillary refill > 3 sec
2) Cool, pale skin
3) Tachycardia
4) Chest pain
Sickle cell anemia:
1) RBC shape
2) inherited how?
3) Lifespan RBC?
1) Crescent
2) autosomal recessive
3) < 90 days
RA
Give 1 example of hospital-acquired pneumonia.
Give 1 example of community-acquired pneumonia.
1) Ventilator-associated pneumonia
2) Someone from the airplane sneezed on you
Injury to ligament
Sprain + ligament = Sprigament
MCV is high = ?
MCV is low = ?
High = macrocytic
Low = microcytic
What happens to gas exchange at high altitudes?
Less oxygen
Less pressure
Impaired diffusion
RICE
Rest, Ice, Compress, Elevate
List risk factors that would cause a patient with pneumonia to go to the hospital.
1) Tachypnea > 30 RR
2) Older than 65
3) COPD, asthma, other lung issues
4) Decr O2
5) Temperature elevated
Pathophysiology of osteoporosis
Decrease in bone mass and density
3 nutrient deficiencies that cause anemia.
1) Iron
2) B12
3) Folate
List 4 vaccines you would get to prevent respiratory illness.
1) RSV
2) Flu
3) COVID-19
4) Pneumonia
Pathophys of pneumonia: what happens to alveoli?
Inflammatory response causes edema, fluid, and exudate to fill the alveoli.
Explain diffusion and gas exchange.
O2 diffuses into capillaries of alveoli because O2 is more concentrated inside alveoli. Gases move from areas of high pressure to low pressure.
What information can you get from a spirometry test?
Pulmonary or lung volume
Airflow time
3 ways to get COPD
1) Smoking
2) Second-hand exposure
3) Alpha 1 antitrypsin deficiency
Name 5 symptoms of anemia.
1) Tachycardia
2) Low BP
3) Brittle hair and nails
4) Stomatitis
5) Cracked lips
6) Pale mucous membranes
7) Pallor
Sickle cell crisis --> Ways to prevent
Stay hydrated!!!
Exercise in moderation
Avoid extremes in temperature
Avoid high altitude
Avoid vasoconstriction
Prevent acidosis
Virchow's Triad plus example of each!
1) Hypercoagulability --> thrombocytosis
2) Venous stasis --> immobility
3) Endothelial injury --> trauma
