Asthma
100
May cause blurred vision and DO NOT TAKE WITH CNS depressants (synergistic effect)
What is Antihistamines?
100
The movement of air in and out of the lungs
What is Ventilation?
100
blood flow through the pulmonary arteries to the capillaries surrounding the alveoli to the pulmonary veins.
What is perfusion?
100
Patients with a decrease in all measured lung volumes have this.
What is restrictive disease?
100
(Restrictive) disease of alveolar tissue distruction without fibrosis. Alveolar sacs lose elasticity and collapse during expalation, trapping air within the lung.
What is emphysema?
200
Patients with seasonal allergic rhinitus who do not respond to antihistamines and sympathomimetic agents may be given this.
What is corticosteroids?
200
Transport of air containing oxygen to the alveolar sacs, exchange of oxygen for carbon dioxide across alveolar membranes?
What is Inhalation?
200
Have few adverse effects and maximum effect may not be present for up to 2 weeks.
What is Aerosol steroids?
200
Reflex innitiated by irritation of the airway.
What is a cough?
200
Will help reduce secretion viscosity.
What is drinking large amounts of fluids?
300
Beclomethasone, budesonide, fluticasone, flunisoline
What is aerosol steroids?
300
Expelling stale air containing carbonmonoxide.
What is exhalation?
300
Oxygen passes across alveolar membrane to the blood in the capillaries and carbon dioxide passes from blood into alveolar sacs.
What is diffusion?
300
One of the first symptoms of respiratory disease is:
What is the presence of a cough?
300
May be used to treat cough.
What is an expectorant or antitussive (cough suppresent)?
400
Use corticosteroids only for short periods to _________ __________ __________.
What is minimize adrenal suppression?
400
Accomplished by contraction and relaxation of the diaphragmatic and intercostal muscles
What is ventilation of the lungs?
400
These must be equal to maintain homeostasis.
What are ventilation and perfusion?
400
Most common chronic disease in children, chronic airway disease, inflammatory disease of the bronchi and bronchides.
What is Asthma?
400
* corticosteriods *cromolyn *long acting beta 2 agonists *leukotrieine modifiers *xanthines
What are long term asthma control medications?
500
Have few adverse effects and maximum effect may not be present for up to 2 weeks.
What is aerosol steroids?
500
muscles between the ribs
What is intercostal muscles?
500
Patients who have difficulty with expirationa and usually have normal lung capacity (TLC) have this.
What is obstructive disease?
500
(Obstructive) chronic irritation causes inflammation and edema with excessive mucous production leading to airway obstruction is called.
What is Chroninic bronchitis?
500
Long term astham control medications are
What is *corticosteroids *cromolyn *long acting beta 2 agonists *leukotrieine modifiers *xanthines?
