Lung Volumes
Which lung volumes decrease with restrictive lung disease?
IRV, ERV, RV
During which cycle of breathing does the diaphram rise?
Exhalation
What are symptoms of left sided HF?
Pulmonary edema, dyspnea, coughing, orthopnea, fatigue
What is a normal WBC count range?
4,500-13,000
What are 2 important indicators of potential problems with respiration?
RPE, and dyspnea
Which lung volume decreases with obstructive disease?
ERV decreases
What is perfusion of the lungs?
The amount of blood flowing through the lungs
What are symptoms of Right sided HF?
Perherphal edema, weight gain, venous stasis, nausea
Normal Hematocrit (Hct)?
36%-46%
signs and symptoms of cardiac distress
Angina, nausea, dyspnea, fatigue, Pallor/cyanosis, syncope, Palpitations, peripheral edema, claudication.
Which lung volume increases with obstructive lungs disease?
RV increases because you are not expelling all of the air you normally would
During upright position where is the gravity independent, middle, and gravity dependent zones?
Apex= independent= dead space
Middle: equal V:Q ratio
Bases: shunt, low V:Q ratio
What type of breathing could occur during HF if metabolic acidosis is a factor?
Kussmaul's respiration
Normal Hemoglobin (Hgb)?
12.0-16.0
What lab value changes with MI and why?
CPK due to muscle damage from heart attach and ischema.
Which 2 volumes = inspiratory capacity?
IRV and TV
What is the pH and PaCO2 during respiratory acidosis? What is a cause?
Low pH, High PaCO2, alveolar hypoventilation
What is the normal EF, and EF during HF?
Normal: 67% +/-8, during HF: 40%-50%
Normal platelet count? Ranges for ADLs only, light exercise, and moderate exercise?
153,000-367,000 Normal
<5,000 bed rest
5,000-20,000: ADLs
20,000-50,000: light exercise only, light resistance
50,000-1500,000: moderate exercise
What is the test and treatment for intermitten claudication?
Pain that begins during walking or exercise and subsides with rest. Cramping, pain in the LE/ calf. treatment: Walking on a treadmill until pain begins, resting until pain subsides and then repeating 2-3 times.
Which vaules= total lung capacity?
IRV + TV + ERV +RV
Which acid-base balance happens during heart failure?
Metabolic acidosis
Which tests are used to determine HF?
Echocardiogram, and arterial blood gases are measured
Lab values for exercise is contraindicated? Platelet, Hct, Hgb, WBC
Platelet count: <5,000
Hct: <20%
Hgb: <8 g/dL
WBC>13,000 (reverse isolation)
WBC<5,000 impaired immunesystem
Which infection infects immunocompromised patients, changes HIV into AIDs, and is caused by a protozoan?
Pneumocystis Carinii Pneumonia
