Respiratory Review

3. Adventitious lung sounds often heard in pneumonia or pulmonary edema
7. Diagnostic lab test to identify the causative organism in pneumonia or TB
9. Collapse of alveoli leading to decreased gas exchange; diminished breath sounds
11. Inhaled and or systemic; used to treat airway inflammation; asthma, COPD
12. Med class, relaxes airway smooth muscle; used in obstructive lung diseases
15. Blood in pleural space, often following chest trauma or surgery
16. Controlled coughing technique used to clear secretions
17. Reversible airway inflammation and bronchospasm triggered by allergens or exercise
18. Stage of TB where the bacteria are present but inactive
20. Blockage in pulmonary artery typically caused by DVT; sudden dyspnea & chest pain

1. Inhale slowly; used to promote lung expansion & prevent atelectasis postop
2. Air in pleural space causes lung collapse; may occur spontaneously or from trauma
4. Exhale slowly; provides resistance and vibration to loosen secretions
5. Infection that causes alveoli to fill with fluid or pus
6. Fluid buildup between the pleural layers; diminished breath sounds & dyspnea
8. Accumulation of fluid in the alveoli, often related to heart failure
10. High-pitched inspiratory sound indicating upper airway obstruction
12. Procedure to visualize airways & obtain biopsy or secretion samples
13. blood test used to evaluate oxygenation & acid-base balance
14. Chronic, progressive disease with airflow limitation, productive cough, & barrel chest
19. Chronic infection caused by Mycobacterium; night sweats, weight loss, and hemoptysis
