 DISORDERS OF THE
RESPIRATORY SYSTEM
OBSTRUCTIVE DISEASES - People
with obstructive lung disease
have shortness of breath due to
difficulty exhaling all the air from the
lungs.
1. EMPHYSEMA
 DISORDERS OF THE
RESPIRATORY SYSTEM
OBSTRUCTIVE DISEASES - People
with obstructive lung disease
have shortness of breath due to
difficulty exhaling all the air from the
lungs.
2. ASTHMA
 DISORDERS OF THE
RESPIRATORY SYSTEM
OBSTRUCTIVE DISEASES - People
with obstructive lung disease
have shortness of breath due to
difficulty exhaling all the air from the
lungs.
3. BRONCHITIS
 DISORDERS OF THE
RESPIRATORY SYSTEM
RESTRICTIVE DISEASES -
characterized by reduced lung volumes,
either because of an alteration in lung
parenchyma or because of a disease of
the pleura, chest wall, or neuromuscular
apparatus.
4. CYSTIC FIBROSIS
 DISORDERS OF THE
RESPIRATORY SYSTEM
RESTRICTIVE DISEASES -
characterized by reduced lung volumes,
either because of an alteration in lung
parenchyma or because of a disease of
the pleura, chest wall, or neuromuscular
apparatus.
5. SARCOIDOSIS
 DISORDERS OF THE
RESPIRATORY SYSTEM
RESTRICTIVE DISEASES -
characterized by reduced lung volumes,
either because of an alteration in lung
parenchyma or because of a disease of
the pleura, chest wall, or neuromuscular
apparatus.
6. PLEURAL EFFUSION
 DISORDERS OF THE
RESPIRATORY SYSTEM
INFECTIOUS/ENVIRONMENTAL
DISEASES - diseases caused by living
organisms like viruses and bacteria.
Described as contagious, they can be
passed from person to person through
body secretions, insects or other means.
7. PNEUMONIA
 DISORDERS OF THE
RESPIRATORY SYSTEM
INFECTIOUS/ENVIRONMENTAL
DISEASES - diseases caused by living
organisms like viruses and bacteria.
Described as contagious, they can be
passed from person to person through
body secretions, insects or other means.
8. TUBERCULOSIS
 DISORDERS OF THE
RESPIRATORY SYSTEM
INFECTIOUS/ENVIRONMENTAL
DISEASES - diseases caused by living
organisms like viruses and bacteria.
Described as contagious, they can be
passed from person to person through
body secretions, insects or other means.
9. ASBESTOSIS
 DISORDERS OF THE
RESPIRATORY SYSTEM
VASCULAR DISEASES - Wounds that
won't heal over pressure points, such as
heels or ankles.
Numbness, weakness, or heaviness in
muscles.
Burning or aching pain at rest, commonly
in the toes and at night while lying flat.
10. PULMONARY EDEMA
 DISORDERS OF THE
RESPIRATORY SYSTEM
VASCULAR DISEASES - Wounds that
won't heal over pressure points, such as
heels or ankles.
Numbness, weakness, or heaviness in
muscles.
Burning or aching pain at rest, commonly
in the toes and at night while lying flat.
10. PULMONARY EMBOLISM
 DISORDERS OF THE
RESPIRATORY SYSTEM
VASCULAR DISEASES - Wounds that
won't heal over pressure points, such as
heels or ankles.
Numbness, weakness, or heaviness in
muscles.
Burning or aching pain at rest, commonly
in the toes and at night while lying flat.
