Across
- 1. Apnea A condition where the upper airways close or breathing repeatedly stops and starts during sleep.
- 4. (Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome) Severe inflammation and increased capillary permeability leading to widespread alveolar damage and fluid in the lungs.
- 5. An infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis that primarily affects the lungs.
- 7. A condition where air leaks into the space between the lung and chest wall, causing the lung to collapse.
- 8. A chronic inflammatory disorder of the airways causing reversible obstruction and bronchoconstriction.
- 9. Inflammation of the bronchi, often characterized by a productive cough lasting months.
- 11. Polyps Soft, painless, noncancerous growths on the lining of the nasal passages or sinuses.
- 12. Fibrosis An autosomal recessive genetic disorder causing thick, sticky mucus buildup in the lungs and digestive tract.
Down
- 2. A condition that damages the elasticity of the alveoli, leading to air trapping and a "barrel-chested" appearance
- 3. An infection that causes inflammation and fluid or pus consolidation in the alveoli.
- 4. Lung inflammation and fibrosis specifically caused by inhaling asbestos fibers.
- 6. (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease) Tuberculosis Sleep Apnea Cystic Fibrosis Pneumonia Pulmonary Embolism Nasal Polyps ARDS (Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome) Emphysema
- 7. Embolism A blood clot that travels to the blood vessels of the lung, obstructing blood flow.
- 10. (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease) A group of progressive lung diseases, primarily emphysema and chronic bronchitis, that cause restricted airflow.
