Lung Disease
• Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)– Chronic Bronchitis
– Emphysema
• Asthma
• Tuberculosis

Lung Disease
• Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)– Chronic Bronchitis
– Emphysema
![Page 4: Clinical Correlation: Lung Disease](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062520/56816612550346895dd95b6d/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
COPD: Definition
• Chronic airflow limitation; not fully reversible
• Two major diseases:• Chronic bronchitis• Emphysema
• Overlapping symptoms
• Distinct entities or disease progression
![Page 5: Clinical Correlation: Lung Disease](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062520/56816612550346895dd95b6d/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Chronic Bronchitis Signs and Symptoms
• Onset phase: years• Chronic cough, copious sputum
– >3 months– 2 consecutive years
• “Blue bloaters”: sedentary, overweight, cyanotic, edematous, breathless
• Severity based on spirometry
![Page 6: Clinical Correlation: Lung Disease](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062520/56816612550346895dd95b6d/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Interpreting Spirometry - definitions
FVC (forced vital capacity)
The maximum volume of air which can be exhaled or inspired
FEV1 (forced expired volume in one second)
Volume expired in the first second of maximal expiration after a maximal inspiration and is a useful measure of how quickly lungs can be emptied , normal if >80%
PEFR (peak flow)
Measured in L/min by peak flow meter and L/sec on pulmonary function testing
FEV1/FVC Ratio of the volume in one second to total volumeCOPD if <0.7

Emphysema: Signs and Symptoms
• Severe exertional dyspnea, minimal cough
• Prolonged expiratory phase• “Barrel-chested”, weight loss• “Pink puffers”: pursing of lips,
non cyanotic
![Page 9: Clinical Correlation: Lung Disease](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062520/56816612550346895dd95b6d/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

COPD: Lab Tests
• Spirometry– ↓ maximum expiratory flow
rate – not reversible
• Chest x-ray:• Chronic bronchitis: prominent
vascular markings• Emphysema: over distention of
lungs, flattening of diaphragm, emphysematous bullae
![Page 11: Clinical Correlation: Lung Disease](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062520/56816612550346895dd95b6d/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
COPD: Medical Management
• No cure, but can improve quality of life• Early management• Smoking cessation, ↓ exposure to pollutants• Regular exercise, good nutrition, prevention
of respiratory infections, adequate hydration• Oxygen therapy when SpO2 ≤ 88• Beta agonists, anticholinergics, inhaled
corticosteroids, ±theophylline
![Page 12: Clinical Correlation: Lung Disease](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062520/56816612550346895dd95b6d/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
COPD: Dental Management
• Encourage quitting smoking• Reschedule appointment if:
• Short of breath worse than baseline• Productive cough worse than baseline• Acute upper respiratory infection• Oxygen saturation <91% (by pulse oximeter)
![Page 13: Clinical Correlation: Lung Disease](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062520/56816612550346895dd95b6d/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
COPD: Dental Management of Stable Patient
• Treat in upright chair position• Use inhalers prior to treatment• Use pulse oximetry• Use low-flow oxygen when O2 sat <95% unless
baseline is lower• May use low-dose oral diazepam• Supplemental steroids may be required

Asthma: Signs and Symptoms
• Predominant symptoms – Cough– Breathlessness– Wheezing– Chest tightness– Flushing
• Increased heart rate and prolonged expiration
• May be self-limiting, but severe episodes may require medical assistance

Lung Disease
• Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)
• Asthma
• Tuberculosis

TB: Definition
• Pulmonary and systemic disease• Most common cause: M. tuberculosis• Spread by respiratory droplet
![Page 30: Clinical Correlation: Lung Disease](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062520/56816612550346895dd95b6d/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
TB: Signs and symptoms
• Most patients with 1°infection: no symptoms• Progressive Primary Infection or Re-activation
– Cough (scanty, mucoid sputum; later purulent)– Systemic symptoms: malaise, unexplained weight
loss, night sweats, fever– Extrapulmonary manifestations: lymphadenopathy,
back pain, GI or renal disturbances, heart failure, neurologic deficits
![Page 31: Clinical Correlation: Lung Disease](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062520/56816612550346895dd95b6d/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
TB: Lab Tests
• Positive tuberculin (Mantoux) skin test (does not mean infection is clinically active)
• X-ray findings• progressive primary TB: patchy infiltrates, cavitation,
hilar lymphadenopathy• healed primary TB: calcified peripheral nodule,
calcified lymph node• Sputum smear positive for acid fast organisms• Confirm with culture and/or molecular tests

TB: Medical Management
• Drugs chosen based on health of patient, likelihood of resistant strain
• Patients become non-infectious in 3-6 months• Prophylactic drug treatment for certain close
contacts (young, HIV infected, diabetic)
![Page 34: Clinical Correlation: Lung Disease](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062520/56816612550346895dd95b6d/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
TB: Dental Management
• New, active TB: treat only urgently and in a hospital isolation room
• After 2-3 weeks of treatment: treat normally• History of TB: treat normally if no active disease• Positive TB test: treat normally if no active disease• Clinical signs suggestive of TB: do not treat
![Page 35: Clinical Correlation: Lung Disease](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062520/56816612550346895dd95b6d/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
