Definition & etiology ARDS
(COPD exacerbation, Tracheal aspiration, Pneumothorax, Pulmonary TB,
Status Asthmaticus, Avian Influenza, SARS, Massive pleural effusion,
Pulmonary edema, Aspiration pneumonia)
CHRONIC OBSTRUCTIVE PULMONARY
DISEASE (COPD)
• Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) as an illness characterized by
irreversible, progressive airway obstruction that is associated with inflammatory
pulmonary changes
• COPD exacerbation characterized by a worsening of the patient's respiratory
symptoms beyond the normal day-to-day variation.
• Typically, involves : worsening dyspnea, ↑sputum + change in the character of sputum, & ↑
frequency & severity of cough.
Rosen’s emergency
medicine, 8th ed. p. 956-
64
COPD :
Clinical Presentation
• History
• Assess the severity of exacerbation, determine a cause
• Physical Examination
• Tachypnea, tachycardia, and hypoxia
• Prolonged COPD evidence of right heart failure
• PEFR <200 L/min of airflow obstruction.
Diagnosis
■ Signs and symptoms may vary according to the extent of lung collapse,
degree of intrapleural pressure, and rapidity of onset.
■ On examination: chest bulging on the affected side if one side is involved,
shift of cardiac impulse away from the site of the pneumothorax, decreased
breath sounds on the affected side, grunting, severe respiratory distress and
cyanosis may occur late in the progression of the complication.
■ Differential diagnosis include lung cyst, lobar emphysema, bullae,
diaphragmatic hernia
■ Chest X-ray is crucial in the confi rmation of diagnosis.
SPONTANEOUS
PNEUMOTHORAX
• Under normal conditions, the visceral and parietal
pleurae lie in close apposition, with only a potential
space between them.
• Pneumothorax is defined as the presence of free air in
the intrapleural space.
• A spontaneous pneumothorax occurs in the absence of
any external precipitating factor, either traumatic or
iatrogenic.
• Primary spontaneous pneumothorax occurs in
individuals without clinically apparent lung disease.
Secondary spontaneous pneumothorax arises in the
context of an underlying pulmonary disease process.
Sign and symptoms SPONTANEOUS
PNEUMOTHORAX
• Tachycardia
• Decreased or absent breath sounds with hyper-sonorous to percusion
• Unilateral enlargement of the hemithorax
• Decreased excursion with respirations
• Absent tactile fremitus
• Tension pneumothorax => asphyxia and decreased cardiac output
• Hypotension
• Distention of the jugular veins
Treatment
• Insert needle for urgent decompression, before insertion of an intercostal
• chest drain.
Tuberculosis
Definitions of estimates used to evaluate the algorithms
• Positive predictive value (PPV): the likelihood that a person diagnosed with TB
has true culture-positive TB (also the proportion of all detected cases that are
true culture-positive TB cases)
• Negative predictive value (NPV): the likelihood that a person who is not
diagnosed with TB does not have culture-positive TB (1 – NPV = the probability
that a person not diagnosed with TB actually has culture-positive TB)
• Pretest probability (PTP): the prevalence of culture-positive TB among persons
eligible for a test (for a second test in an algorithm this equals the PPV of the
previous test); the pretest probability increases with each screening step

Clinical Manifestation
• Post-primary TB
• Also referred to as reactive or secondary TB
• X-ray images are limited to the apical or posterior segments of the upper lobe
(due generally to high oxygen pressures in this region)
• The superior segment of the lower lobes is also frequently affected
• The extent of parenchymal involvement varies, from the formation of small
infiltrate to extensive cavity formation
• Lung lesions that experience healing experience fibrosis and then calcification
but the cavity image remains persistent
• Most patients who respond to treatment are characterized by decreased
fever, reduced cough, weight gain and general improvement in weeks
Clinical Manifestation
Early symptoms are usually asymptomatic and non-specific :
• Diurnal fever
• Nocturnal diaphoretic caused by fever
• Weight loss
• Anorexia
• Malaise
• Physical weakness
• Non-productive cough (limited in the morning) progresses to purulent sputum
production and becomes hemoptysis
• Pleuritic chest pain
• Dyspnea
• Sometimes formed a mace (Clubbing finger)
• Hematologic findings: mild anemia, leukocytosis, thrombocytosis, elevated ESR and CRP
Investigation
• Acid-resistant bacterial Microscopy
• Bacterial Culture
• Nucleic acid amplification
• AB resistant test
• CXR
• Serology test

Acute Severe Asthma
Status Asthmaticus
• Exacerbations of asthma feared by patients life-
threatening
• Controller therapy : prevent exacerbations
ICS* and combination inhalers (very effective)

• Pleural effusion implies the presence of an abnormally large
amount of fluid in the pleural space.
• Etiology :
– Tuberculosis
