MAJOR SYMPTOMS OF
PULMONARY DISEASE
DEFINITION
Difficult, laboured, uncomfortable
breathing. Subjective feeling which may
DYSPNEA be associated with mild anxiety or
extreme fear
DYSPNEA
RESTRICTION
VENTILATION
IMPAIRMENT
IMPAIRMENT OF
OXYGEN TRANSFER
DIFFUSION
SHUNTING
PERFUSION ANEMIA
INADEQUATE
CARDIAC OUTPUT
SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS
Depend on the causa
UPPER AIRWAY OBSTRUCTIONS ARE CHARACTERIZED BY
STRIKING INSPIRATORY STRIDOR, INSPIRATORY WHEEZING
LARYNGEAL OR
TRACHEAL
OBSTRUCTION
HOW TO DIAGNOSE?
SHORT HISTORY TAKING
PHYSICAL EXAMINATION
CONSCIOUSNESS
EFFORT OF BREATHING : torakoabdominal or
abdominotorakal
VITAL SIGN :
BLOOD PRESSURE, RESPIRATORY RATE, HEART RATE
GENERAL EXAMINATION
Cyanosis,,cuping hidung, pursed lip breathing,
retraction, cold
SPECIFIC EXAMINATION
decrease vesicular, stridor, wheezing
IS SHORTNESS OF BREATH REALLY
HAVE TO BE WORRIED?
YES OR NO
NO :
1. trigger point.
Trigger points in the muscles of the throat, neck,
chest, and back may also interfere with the nervous
systems control of respiration.
2. Bad breathing habit
Shallow breathing
YES
HAS ANOTHER SYMPTOMS RATHER THAN SOB ALONE
ONSET of BREATHLESSNESS
SUDDEN
ONSET
Accumulation of PE GRADUAL
Partial/complete airway occlusion ONSET OVER
due to growth of lung cancer MONTHS OR YEARS
COPD
Lung fibrosis
Non-respiratory causes
(anemia, hyperthyroidism)
MANAGEMENT STRATEGIES
Oxygen
Opiates
Anxiolytics
Reduce the sense of effort and
improve respiratory muscle function
Hyperinflation as a primary mechanism of dyspnea : breathing
techniques and changing breathing paterns for reducing dyspnea.
The patient should be allowed to get the most convenient position
until she/he experiences the least shortness of breath
NISV
Pursed lip breathing
Help the patient to maintain a slow, rhythmic and deep pattern of breathing
Alter the central perception of dyspnea
When acute dyspnea persists despite optimal treatment, care
focuses on the symptom rather than the disease.
Breathing-relaxation training
Counseling and support
Distraction with music
Acupunture /acupressure
Chest wall vibration
Neuro-electrical muscle stimulation
COMPLICATION
RESPIRATORY
FAILURE
