4 Asthma Risk factors for sudden death History of severe exacerbations
Use of greater than 2 canisters of albuterol per month Prior intubation Current use of oral steroids or recent withdrawal from oral steroids Prior ICU admit Comorbid illness such as COPD or cardiovascular disease Greater or equal to 2 hospitalizations in the past year Illicit drug use Greater or equal to 3 ED visits in the past year Psychiatric disease Hospitalization or ED visit in the last month Low socioeconomic status Poor perception of airflow obstruction or its severity

5 Asthma Rarely need ABG. New onset will need chest x-ray. Treatment:
Acute versus chronic. More than two episodes a week, start low dose inhaled corticosteroids. Daily symptoms require long-acting inhaled beta-2 agonist, in addition to corticosteroids. Leukotriene modifiers, cromolyn, and theophylline are considered second or third line agents.

6 stage symptoms PEFor FEV1 daily treatment Mild intermittent Greater than two episodes per week, during the day or greater than two episodes at night a month Greater than 80% No daily treatment Mild persistent Less than one episode per day or greater than two episodes per month at night Low dose inhaled corticosteroids may use additional third line treatment Moderate persistent Daily or more than one nightly episode per week 60 to 80% Low to medium dose inhaled corticosteroids plus long-acting beta-2 agonist may at third line treatment Severe persistent Continual during the day frequent at night Less than 60% High-dose inhaled corticosteroid plus long-acting beta-2 agonist oral corticosteroids is needed

7 Asthma Intubation for respiratory collapse.
Ventilator setting should be set for a prolonged expiratory times. Admission= FEV1 or peak flow ≤ 50% of predicted after three hours of therapy. May be discharged = FEV1 or peak flows ≥ 70% of predicted. Stable for 30 minutes after last treatment.

8 Asthma At discharge patients should have refill of beta-2 agonists and 3 to 10 days of oral corticosteroids. Plus or minus inhaled corticosteroids.

9 Asthma Initial management:
02 to keep sats greater than or equal to 92%. Inhaled beta-2 agonists. Anti-cholinergics (ipratropium) Systemic corticosteroids, if no immediate response

10

11 Acute bronchitis Acute means it has lasted < three weeks.
90% of bronchitis is viral, influenza A or B, Para-influenza, RSV, rhino virus, coronavirus, or metapneumonia virus. Mycoplasma, Chlamydia and pertussis are becoming more common causes.

12 Acute bronchitis Fever suggests influenza.
Severe paroxysmal cough with post—tussive vomiting suggests pertussis. Diagnosis is clinical. If you think it may be pneumonia, cxr. Treatment: guaifenesin is useful to mobilize secretions, antitussives can be used for reduction of symptoms.

13 Chronic bronchitis Presence of cough and sputum production on most days over at least a three-month period for more than two consecutive years in a patient without other explanations for cough. *Almost all are smokers. Treatment includes smoking cessation.

14

15 croup Obstruction of upper airway due to infection. Spasmodic croup is noninfectious. Parainfluenza one is the most common cause. RSV, flu, adenovirus are other causes. ‘steeple sign’ Six to 36 months. Barking cough hoarseness inspiratory stridor. May have hypoxia, cyanosis and severe distress. Treatment is inhaled mist, corticosteroids, inhaled epinephrine in severe cases. epiglotitis Cellulitis of epiglottis, HIB . ‘Thumb sign’ Sniffing position, stridor and drooling are signs of impending respiratory obstruction. Visualization of airway in adults Kid stuff

16 bronciolitis Nonspecific inflammatory disorder. Variety of causes. Peak 2-6 months: fever, wheezing, chest retractions and tachypnea. Tiny tots may have apnea. Clinical diagnosis. Steroids are of no benefit. Treatment includes warm humidified oxygen, racemic epinephrine. Admit if toxic appearance. Obvious evidence of respiratory distress, pneumonia, or poor social circumstances. pertusis ‘whooping cough’, small gram-negative coccobacillus. Three stages: catarrhal stage, paroxysmal stage can last for months, convalescent stage can last for months. Adults often misdiagnosed with bronchitis. Clinical diagnosis cough for two weeks, inspiratory whoop, post -tussive vomiting, exposure or outbreak.

17 COPD Emphysema – pink puffer Alveolar wall destruction
Chronic bronchitis – blue bloater Alveolar wall destruction Mostly caused by smoking (a– 1antitrypsin deficiency) Less CO2 retention and hypoxemia than blue bloaters Better prognosis than blue bloater Chronic cough Mostly caused by smoking Signs of right sided heart failure Most die in2-4 years Oxygen treatment

18 COPD FEV1 drops below 50% of predicted, exertional dyspnea and cough, minor hemoptysis, tachypnea and pulsus paradoxus. Clubbing of fingers, barrel chest, and pursed lip exhalation. ABG’s are helpful with exacerbations. Chest x-rays are necessary.

19 COPD

20 Acute COPD ABG All ill pts, PaO2<50mmHg, PaCO2>70mmHg, Ph<7.3= life threatening CXR r/o pneumonia or pneumothorax EKG R heart hypertropy, consider PE, CHF, MI O2 Monitor for worsening hypercapnia Beta 2 agonist First line is albuterol anticholenergic Ipratropium if not responding to albuterol methylxanthines Contriversial, side effects: vomiting, arrhythmias, hypotension, and sz corticosteroids Oral = iv antibiotics Fever or purulent sputum, cover S. pneumonae, H influenza, M catarrhalis

21 Red neck pet carrier

22 Angioedema ACE inhibitor induced angioedema
Creates angioedema by blocking the conversion of bradykinin and substance P to inactive metabolites. 60% within one week of starting med, but has been known to occur at any time during treatment. Less than 1% of those treated with ACE–I have angioedema. No urticaria, not related to ACE cough.

23 Angioedema ACE inhibitor induced angioedema
Treatment is airway management and stopping offending medication. Steroids and antihistamines may not work due to pathophys ; epinephrine should be tried but, may not work. *FFP is effective and naloxone can be used for hypotension.

24 Angioedema Several other causes; the one on the test will probably be C1-esterase inhibitor. FFP has C1-INH in it.

25 Anaphylaxis The first and most important therapy in anaphylaxis is epinephrine. There are no absolute contraindications to epinephrine in the setting of anaphylaxis. Airway: Immediate intubation if evidence of impending airway obstruction from angioedema. IM Epinephrine: 0.3 to 0.5 mL of the 1:1,000, preferably in the anterior or lateral thigh; can repeat every 3 to 5 minutes as needed. Treat hypotension with rapid infusion of 1-2 liters IV.

26 Anaphylaxis IV Epinephrine: put 0.1 mL of 1:1,000 dilution into 10 cc of normal saline, give 1-2 mL per minute, titrated to response Oxygen: give 100 percent oxygen Albuterol: Treat bronchospasm with mg in 3 mL saline via nebulizer

27 Anaphylaxis Antihistamine (H1 blocker): Give all patients diphenhydramine mg IV; can give IM if symptoms are less severe Antihistamine (H2 blocker): Give all patients ranitidine (zantac) 50 mg IV or famotidine (pepcid)20 mg IV Corticosteroid: Consider giving methylprednisolone 125 mg IV or dexamethaone 20 mg IV

29 Pulmonary embolism No single clinical finding is sensitive or specific for PE. PIOPED= 97% have either dyspnea, tachypnea or chest pain. The most common symptoms: dyspnea (73 percent), pleuritic pain (66 percent), cough (37 percent) and hemoptysis (13 percent). The most common signs : tachypnea (70 percent), rales (51 percent), tachycardia (30 percent), a fourth heart sound (24 percent). Fever, usually with a temperature <102ºF (38.9ºC), occurred in 14 percent of patients with pulmonary embolism and no other apparent source for an elevated temperature .

30 Pulmonary embolism In patients with massive PE, these physical findings may be accompanied by acute right ventricular failure, manifested by increased jugular venous pressure, a right-sided S3, and a parasternal lift. Most do not have leg sx. Hampton hump on xray, Westermark sign Saddle embolism on CT S1Q3T3

31 Pulmonary embolism

32 Pulmonary embolism Westermark sign – vasoconstriction seen distal to a pulmonary embolus (PE). While the chest x-ray is abnormal in the majority of PE cases, the Westermark sign is seen in only 2% of patients.

33 Pulmonary embolism

34 Pulmonary embolism– ‘Classic findings’
T3 Q3

35 Pulmonary embolism– ‘Classic findings’
S1Q3T3 are neither pathognomonic, sensitive or specific S1 T3 Q3

36 Pulmonary embolism What an EKG is more likely to show in PE:
***most common is non specific ST segment and T wave abnormalities*** Might see: Right heart strain – RBBB T wave inversion in V1-V4

37 Pulmonary embolism

38 Pulmonary Embolism – risk factors
Immobilization, surgery within the last three months, stroke, history of venous thromboembolism, malignancy, preexisting respiratory disease, chronic heart disease. Additional risk factors identified in women include : Obesity, Heavy cigarette smoking, Hypertension

39 Pulmonary Embolism Mortality without treatment is 30%, with treatment is 2-8% Treatment : heparin or Enoxaparin: 1 mg/kg per dose administered subcutaneously twice daily. Alternatively, 1.5 mg/kg administered subcutaneously once daily. (Marty told us that on Tuesday!) Trans to Coumadin.

40 Pulmonary Embolism IVC for those who can’t have anticoags.
Thrombolytics no mortality benefit over heparin but is recommended in unstable patients. Embolectomy for those with contraindications to thrombolytics.

42 Thoracic Costrochondritis – diffuse inflammation of costrochondral and costrosternal joints Tender but no swelling or reddness Women over 40 and associated with fibromyalgia Non steroidals, muscle relaxants, antidepressants, PT Self limiting

43 Thoracic Cystic fibrosis – autosomal recessive
Chronic cough Recurrent pulmonary infections Pancreatic insufficiency Chloride transporter in exocrine glands, thick mucous and difficulty clearing.

44 Thoracic Cystic fibrosis – chronic cough, pneumonias (P. aeruginosa, S. aureus, H. influenza,) persistant changes on CXR, airway abnormality, clubbing, sinusitis, nasal polyps. Non respiratory - meconium ileus, distal gi obst., pancreatic insufficiency, biliary cirrhosis, failure to thrive, male infertility, osteoporosis.

45 Thoracic Cystic fibrosis – 7% diagnosed as adults. 50% in the first 6 mo. Dx’d with sweat chloride test. Tx – appropriate abx. Tobramycin covers pseudamonas (plus) Ticarcillin, piperacillin (or) Ceftazidime, cefepime (or) imipenem/cilastatin, meropenem b agonist helpful for bronchospasm. Always double coverage

46 Thoracic Pleural effusion –most common causes: CHF, pneumonia, CA, PE
Short of breath, dullness to percussion, decreased breath sounds 150ml to blunt costrophrenic angle Lights criteria: protein ratio greater than 0.5, LDH ratio greater than 0.6, LDH greater than two thirds the upper limits of the laboratory's normal serum LDH

47 Thoracic Chronic medistinitis is diffuse fibrosis of the soft tissues of the mediastinum. This is sometimes the consequence of histoplasmosis, tuberculosis or radiation therapy. Causes constriction and superior vena cava syndrome or pulmonary edema from compression of pulmonary veins. Treatment = steroids or surgical decompression of affected vessels.

48 Thoracic Acute mediastinitis Causes: cardiovascular surgery, perforation of the esophagus or from contiguous spread of odontogenic or retropharyngeal infections. Most cases of result from complications of cardiovascular or endoscopic surgical procedures. Treatment usually involves aggressive intravenous antibiotic therapy and hydration. Abscesses will need surgical drainage.

49 Thoracic Pneumomediastinum causes:
Boerhaave syndrome- full thickness tear of the esophagus. (what is the name of an intimal tear of the esphagus?) What causes Boerhaaves’? What is the cause of non-Boerhaaves’ full thickness tear? (85-90% of full thickness tears?) Abx, surgical repair, iv hydration, npo iatrogenic

50 Thoracic Clinical presentation, epigastric chest or back pain after vomiting. May present in shock or sepsis. Distal tears worse than proximal. most common, left posterolateral wall of the lower third of the esophagus, 2-3 cm before the stomach. You will see mediastial air on chest XR. You may hear Hammond crunch, air which has tracted to the pericardium on auscultation. Diagnosis and treatment for Boerhaaves? water soluble contrast ct, tx broad spectrum abx, tx shock, npo, iv fluids Dx –

53 Thoracic Meanwhile, back at…
Mallory-Weiss syndrome, may present with violent vomiting/retching with hematemisis Or Just melena; without h/o violent vomiting/retching. Associated with alcoholism and eating disorders.

54 Thoracic Diagnosed with scope, not mediastinal air on CXR.
Bleeding usually stops on its own, or if the pt is sick enough and doesn’t have any coagulants and comes in late and the bleeding can’t be stopped…

55

56 Thoracic Esophageal FB vs Tracheal FB

57

58 Thoracic Inhalation injury – main cause of death in burn patients.
Steam inhalation burns may happen past the vocal cords. Clinical presentation – SOB, carbonaceous sputum, singed nasal hair, hoarseness and wheeze. Primary CXR may not show pulmonary edema. Bronchoscopy may be needed to show extent of injuries. Tx – humidified O2 intubate as necessary…

59 Thoracic What is ‘necessary’?
Carbonaceous sputum, hoarse voice, full thickness face or perioral burns, circumferential neck burns, altered mental status (the patients, not yours), hypoxia, supraglottic edema. Ask yourself ‘if I don’t tube now, will I be able to later?’ or ‘what is going to be the progress of this patient?’

61 Thoracic Environmental lung disease - pneumoconiosis
Asbestosis Silicosis Coal workers pneumoconiosis Exposure to coal dust, asbestos, talc, aluminum powder. Fibrotic lung disease presents with restrictive lung disease and fine crackles. No specific tx. Should have vaccines, stop smoking and home O2 if necessary. Buddy Ebsen Buddy ebsen, jack haley jr Jack Haley
