"Pink puffers", barrell chest, pursed lip breathers, distant quiet breath sounds, wheezes, pulmonary blebs on radiograph- air trappings can explode next to each other and cause pneumothorax. Asthma assessment: Dyspnea, wheezing, chest tightness, assess precipitating factors, medication history. Compensation with COPD: ABG's are altered. As COPD worsens, the amount of O2 in blood decreased- hypoxemia, and the amount of CO2 in the blood increased-hypercapnia. This caused chronic respi...
