8. Obstructive Pulmonary Diseases Noted by impediments to normal movement of air through the conducting passageways of the respiratory tract Examples: Asthma: Increased contractability of smooth muscle surrounding conductive passageways. Common chronic inflammatory disease Bronchitis: Bacterial or environmental inflammation of mucous membranes of bronchi and bronchioles Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD): Persistent and cumulative breakdown of lung tissue. Condition couples the anatomical breakdown of lung tissue (emphysema) with physiological narrowing of asthma/bronchitis. Most commonly associated with smoking. 4 th leading cause of death worldwide Emphysema : Anatomical breakdown of lung tissue Epiglottitis: Bacterial infection of epiglottis, which can lead to a completely closed trachea

9. Restrictive Pulmonary Disease Def: Diseases that prevent lung expansion, reduce lung volume or demand increased work to allow ventilation Examples: Cystic Fibrosis: Genetic mutation that leads to excess mucus production in the lung and scarring/fibroids in the pancreas Mesothelioma: Tumor formation in the pleura, preventing inflation of the lung Pneumonia: Viral or bacterial disease that fills alveoli with fluid, hindering oxygenation Sarcoidosis: Autoimmune or environmentally-triggered disease leading to chronic formation of inflammatory cells (granulomas) in the lungs, reducing lung volume Tuberculosis: Bacterial disease leading to granuloma formation in lungs. Highly communicable.
