pathophysio
-
dysfunction
both cells undergo hyperplasia -> continue secrete large amount of sputum & ciliated cells do not move upward -> stick tgt & cause obstruction
ca lung -> arises from epithelial lining of major bronchi -> develop from a small mucosal lesion and follow several patterns to grow
3 patterns
from intraluminal masses that invade the bronchial tissue & infiltrate the peribronchial connective tissue (bld vessels) -> causes hemoptysis
-
form large, bulky masses that extend into the adjacent lung tissue
management
-
Radiotherapy
-
either pre-op (shrink the tumor)/ post-op (control node- positive patient, preventing cancer from migrating to other organs through lymph node)
-
Palliative treatment for symptom control (eg severe cough, hemoptysis, pain, spinal cord compression [cord com] -> low back pain)
Positioning: supine, abducted arms, customized cast
Side effects: skin reaction/ infection/ wound, fatigue, anorexia
chemotherapy
- disruption of angiogenesis (growth of bld vessles) -> to suppress tumor growth; deal with vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) & platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)
Tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKIs) oral med: Sorafenib, Beracizumab, Ramucirumab
Platinum containing anti-cancer drug (IV): Cisplatin, carboplatin (with pint NS)
Side effects; fatigue, diarrhoea, anorexia, NV, bone marrow suppession
