RESPIRATORY DISORDER
ASTHMA
DESCRIPTION
asthma is a condition whereby the person's airway becomes inflamed, the airways narrow and produce mucus which makes it hard or difficult to breath due to a certain stimuli.
CAUSES
Allergens e.g. dust mites, animal dander, pollen, molds, cigarette smoke, chemical pollutants, and cold air
-
-
Medications like aspirin, beta-blockers or NSAIDs
-
Other factors like dietary insufficiencies in vitamins C and E, and omega-3 fatty acids
PATHOPHYSIOLOGY
-
-
-
-
-
-
wheezing, cough, shortness of breath, and tightness in the chest occurs.
SYMPTOMS
-
persistent cough, mostly at night.
-
-
-
-
-
-
TREATMENT
-
-
Albuterol (short acting), salmeterol (long acting)
-
NURSING MANAGEMENT
NURSING INTERVENTION
monitor rate, rhythm, depth and effort of respiration to determine the need for intervention and evaluate effectiveness of interventions

LUNG ABSCESS
DESCRIPTION
LUNG ABSCESS is defined as necrosis of the pulmonary tissue and formation of cavities containing necrotic debris or fluid caused by microbial infection.
SYMPTOMS
-
-
fever, chills and night sweats
-
-
-
-
-
PATHOPHYSIOLOGY
producing exudates WBC, mostly neutrophils also migrate to the alveoli and fill normally air containing spaces
-
-
-
defence mechanism of the lungs loss it effectiveness and allow organisms to penetrate sterile lower respiratory tract.
decrease in alveolar oxygen tension, alveolar exudates tends to consolidate so difficult to expectorate.
-

-
-
-
NURSING MANAGEMENT
NURSING INTERVENTION
-
check the patients vital signs most importantly respiration status in order to check signs of hypoxia.
to improve nutritious status give the patient shakes instead of large meals, as well as balanced diet.
-
-
-
-
-
-
NURSING DIAGNOSIS
-
-
-
-
-
acute pain related to congestion, possible lung infraction
-
TUBERCULOSIS
NURSING MANAGEMENT
NURSING INTERVENTION
Ask the patient about a previous history of TB, chronic illness,
or any immunosuppressive medications
-
-
. Advise these patients to restrict visitors and
avoid travel on public transportation and trips to public places.
-
EXPECTED OUTCOME
patient complying to treatment well since he/she has knowledge about the disease through health education by a health care worker.
-
-
-
-
NURSING DIAGNOSIS
-
risk for noncompliance related to lack of knowledge of disease
process, lack of motivation, long-term nature of treatment, and lack of resources.
-
-
DEFINITION
TB is an infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. It usually involves the lungs, but any organ
can be infected.
-
SYMPTOMS
-
-
-
-
TB normally becomes active in 2-3 weeks and, it may start with a dry cough.
-
-
PATHOPHYSIOLOGY
-
-
A process of evaporation leaves small droplet nuclei, these droplet nuclei are then transmitted via inhalation to another person
-
entry of the micro organism through droplets produced by breathing, singing, talking. since TB is an airborne it spread from one person to another person through droplet.
CLASSIFICATION OF TB
Latent TB infection (LTBI) occurs in a person who does not
have active TB disease, this individuals are asymptomatic and cannot be transmitted.
active TB also known as TB disease, it is a contagious disease
-
extra pulmonary TB- is the TB that involves other parts of the body like bone but is found outside the lungs.
