Usually progressive, associated with enhanced chronic
inflammatory response in airways and lungs to noxious
particles/gases

Airway fibrosis, luminal plugs, airway inflammation,
increased airway resistance, small airway dz.

Decreased elastic recoil of alveoli.

What are risk factors for COPD? - Answer>> Smoking
(increasing w/number of pack years)
Second hand smoke
Environmental pollution (endotoxins, coal dust, mineral
dust)

,What is seen on phys exam in COPD? - Answer>> May be
normal in early states

As severity progresses: lung hyperinflation, decreased
breath sounds, wheezes at bases, distant heart tones (b/c
of hyperinflation, so S1/S2 sounds off in distance),
accessory muscle use, pursed lip breathing, increased
expiratory phase, neck vein distention.

How is COPD diagnosed? - Answer>> Spirometry is gold
standard (pre and post bronchodilator).
Irreversible airflow limitation is hallmark.

How is COPD treated? - Answer>> Bronchodilators: beta
agonists (long/short), anticholinergics (long/short), or
combo.

What is the MOA of beta agonists? - Answer>>
Stimulates beta-2-adrenergic receptors, increasing cyclic
AMP, resulting in relaxing airways.

What is the MOA of anticholinergics? - Answer>> Block
the effect of acetylcholine on muscarinic type 3
receptors, resulting in bronchodilation.

Why are long-acting beta agonists prescribed for COPD? -
Answer>> They are for moderate airflow limitation.

They relieve symptoms, increase exercise tolerance,
reduce number of exacerbations, improve QOL.

What is emphysema? - Answer>> Characterized by
obstruction to airflow caused by abnormal airspace
enlargement distal to terminal bronchioles.

Chronic inflammation/remodeling, trapping air, hindering

mediators infiltrating airways).

Answer>> Chest pain
Chest tightness
Chest discomfort
