Question 2

MATCHING
The clinical scenarios associated with respiratory disease result from the pathophysiologic mechanisms caused (or activated) by the anatomic alterations of the lungs associated with the disorder. Using the "Yes" or "No" items, match the major anatomic alterations of the lungs that cause the clinical scenario associated with Atelectasis.
-Excessive Bronchial Secretions Clinical Scenario

Accepted Answer

Excessive bronchial secretions are not typically associated with atelectasis, which is primarily characterized by the collapse of lung tissue.

Question 3

MATCHING
The clinical scenarios associated with respiratory disease result from the pathophysiologic mechanisms caused (or activated) by the anatomic alterations of the lungs associated with the disorder. Using the "Yes" or "No" items, match the major anatomic alterations of the lungs that cause the clinical scenario associated with Atelectasis.
-Atelectasis Clinical Scenario

Accepted Answer

Atelectasis results from the collapse or closure of a portion of the lung that prevents proper ventilation and oxygenation. This can occur due to various reasons, including obstruction of the airways, compression of the lung tissue, or decreased surfactant production. Therefore, any clinical scenario that is associated with impaired lung function, such as hypoxemia, dyspnea, or decreased breath sounds, could be caused by atelectasis.

Question 5

Next to the pulmonary function studies listed, match the findings listed below that typically develop in patients who have postoperative atlectasis. Items may be used once, more than once, or not at all.
-RV

Accepted Answer

Residual Volume (RV) typically decreases in postoperative atelectasis due to the collapse of alveoli, which reduces the volume of air remaining in the lungs after a normal exhalation.

Question 6

MATCHING
The clinical scenarios associated with respiratory disease result from the pathophysiologic mechanisms caused (or activated) by the anatomic alterations of the lungs associated with the disorder. Using the "Yes" or "No" items, match the major anatomic alterations of the lungs that cause the clinical scenario associated with Atelectasis.
-Alveolar Consolidation Clinical Scenario

Accepted Answer

Atelectasis is characterized by the collapse of lung tissue, not alveolar consolidation. Alveolar consolidation is more commonly associated with pneumonia.

Question 7

MATCHING
The clinical scenarios associated with respiratory disease result from the pathophysiologic mechanisms caused (or activated) by the anatomic alterations of the lungs associated with the disorder. Using the "Yes" or "No" items, match the major anatomic alterations of the lungs that cause the clinical scenario associated with Atelectasis.
-Bronchospasm Clinical Scenario

Accepted Answer

Bronchospasm is not typically associated with atelectasis. Atelectasis involves the collapse of lung tissue, whereas bronchospasm involves the constriction of airways.

Question 8

Next to the pulmonary function studies listed, match the findings listed below that typically develop in patients who have postoperative atlectasis. Items may be used once, more than once, or not at all.
-TLC

Accepted Answer

Postoperative atelectasis typically leads to a decrease in Total Lung Capacity (TLC) due to the collapse of lung tissue and reduced lung volume.

Question 10

Next to the pulmonary function studies listed, match the findings listed below that typically develop in patients who have postoperative atlectasis. Items may be used once, more than once, or not at all.
-ERV

Accepted Answer

In postoperative atelectasis, the expiratory reserve volume (ERV) typically decreases due to the collapse of alveoli and reduced lung volume.

Question 14

Next to the pulmonary function studies listed, match the findings listed below that typically develop in patients who have postoperative atlectasis. Items may be used once, more than once, or not at all.
-FVC

Accepted Answer

Postoperative atelectasis is typically associated with a decrease in FVC.

Question 15

Next to the pulmonary function studies listed, match the findings listed below that typically develop in patients who have postoperative atlectasis. Items may be used once, more than once, or not at all.
-IC

Accepted Answer

In postoperative atelectasis, the inspiratory capacity (IC) typically decreases due to reduced lung volume and impaired lung expansion.

Question 16

Next to the pulmonary function studies listed, match the findings listed below that typically develop in patients who have postoperative atlectasis. Items may be used once, more than once, or not at all.
-FRC

Accepted Answer

Functional Residual Capacity (FRC) typically decreases in patients with postoperative atelectasis due to the collapse of alveoli, which reduces lung volume.

Using the "Yes" or "No" items, match the major anatomic alterations of the lungs that cause the clinical scenario associated with Atelectasis.
-Increased Alveolar-Capillary Membrane Thickness Clinical Scenario
