Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Diseases (COPD) Chronic Airflow Limitation
(CAL)

Emphysema
• Loss of lung elasticity• Hyperinflation of the lung• Formation of Bullae• Small airway collapse and air
trapping

Classifying Emphysema
• Panlobular
• Centrolobular

Clinical Manifestations
• Progressive dyspnea on exertion• Prolonged expiratory phase &
tachypnea• Increased work of breathing• Anorexia, weight loss• Barrel Chest• Flattened diaphragm

Clinical Manifestations (cont)
• Formation of blebs and bullae• Hyperresonance• Polycythemia (pink puffer)• Chronic hypoxia• Pneumothorax• Hypercapnic to hypoxic drive• Chronic respiratory acidosis (end
stage)

Pulmonary Function Tests
• Increased– residual volume– total lung capacity
• Decreased– Forced vital capacity
– FEV1

Chronic Bronchitis
• Excessive production of mucus in the bronchi
• Productive cough– Persists 3 months of the year for 2
consecutive years
![Page 10: Emphysema](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032805/56813323550346895d9a0119/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Pathologic Changes
• Chronic inflammation• Hypertrophy and hyperplasia of
the mucus glands• Increased susceptibility to infection• V/Q changes
![Page 11: Emphysema](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032805/56813323550346895d9a0119/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Presentation
• May have same symptoms as emphysema
• Frequent respiratory infections• Cyanosis• Cor pulmonale• Polycythemia

Asthma
• Not always listed as one of the diseases of COPD/CAL
• Asthma is usually a reversible process
• Involves periodic episodes
![Page 14: Emphysema](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032805/56813323550346895d9a0119/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Asthma Classifications
• Extrinsic (Allergic)– Antigen/antibody response– Childhood
• Intrinsic (Endogenous)– History recurrent RTI– adulthood
![Page 15: Emphysema](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032805/56813323550346895d9a0119/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Pathologic Changes
• Hypersensitivity response• Bronchoconstriction• May become chronic with
irreversible changes
![Page 16: Emphysema](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032805/56813323550346895d9a0119/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Presentation
• Bronchospasm• Increased mucus secretion• Dyspnea• Wheezing• Cough

Consequences of CAL
• ABG’s– Initially normal ABG followed by
decreased PaO2 and O2 saturation
– Increased PaCO2 with an increase in HCO3 to compensate
• Compensated Respiratory Acidosis and Hypoxemia
![Page 19: Emphysema](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032805/56813323550346895d9a0119/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Polycythemia
• Related to decreased PaO2• What is the mechanism?

Pulmonary Function Tests
• What do you expect?

Collaborative Management of CAL
• Medical management– Maximize oxygenation, ventilation
and perfusion
• Surgical management– Bullectomy– Lung volume reduction surgery
![Page 24: Emphysema](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032805/56813323550346895d9a0119/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Drug Therapy• Bronchodilators
– Sympathomimetics– Methylxanthines
• Anticholinergics• Steroids• Mast Cell Stabilizers• Leukotriene Antagonists• Expectorants• Antibiotics
![Page 25: Emphysema](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032805/56813323550346895d9a0119/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Nursing Diagnoses
• Impaired gas exchange• Ineffective airway clearance• Activity intolerance• Anxiety• Altered nutrition: less than body
requirements
![Page 26: Emphysema](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032805/56813323550346895d9a0119/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Nursing Interventions
• Maintain a patent airway• Safely administer oxygen• Use oxygen delivery systems
appropriately• Accurately assess the patient’s
breathing• Use positioning to improve
oxygenation
![Page 27: Emphysema](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032805/56813323550346895d9a0119/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Teach the Patient:
• Abdominal & Pursed lip breathing• Controlled coughing• Conservation of energy• Prevent secondary infection• Insure hydration• Nutrition• Therapeutic
communication/relaxation
