… DX ? Acute cardiogenic pulmonary edema = acute breathlessness with orthopnea due to cardiac disease that leads to elevation of the hydrostatic pressure in the pulmonary capillaries causing pulmonary edema . Steps of management ? Ask your self 2 Q = .Is there respiratory failure . Is there cardiogenic shock. 1. Seat the patient upright to reduce venous return 2. administer100% O2 by simple mask to achieve O2 saturation above 90% . Assisted ventilation may be needed. insert 2 large pore canula and send blood for invx “ CBC , RFT , LFT , CE , ABG” . Admit to the ccu , ECG monitoring.

How to treat acute severe bronchial asthma? We can manage acute severe asthma by the followings— Urgent hospitalization and send blood for ABG. Nebulized salbutamol Adult: 5 mg 2–4 hourly Children: 0.15–0.3 mg/kg/dose every 20 minutes for 3 times or continuously. Propped up position/ head up position Oxygen High-flow/60%. In children, 4–6 L/min (40–60%) through oxygen hood/ head box Prednisolone 40 mg orally (or hydrocortisone 200 mg IV if patient cannot swallow or vomit). Child dose: Inj. hydrocortisone 3–4 mg/kg/dose 4–6 hourly or, Prednisolone 2 mg/kg/day for 3–5 days or as necessary.
Slide 23-

. IV access, chest X-ray, send blood for urea and electrolytes, theophylline level. If condition does not improve, nebulized ipratropium bromide may be added Administer repeat salbutamol 5mg + ipratropium bromide 0.5 mg nebulizer. If failure to respond, continuous salbutamol nebulizer 5–10 mg/hr. If not respond, consider IV magnesium sulfate 1.2–2 gm over 20 mins, or Aminophylline 5 mg/kg loading dose over 20 mins followed by a continuous infusion at 1 mg/kg/hr. Correct fluid and electrolytes (esp. K+ ) (repeated use of salbutamol may cause hypokalemia). In refractory cases Mechanical ventilation

Causes of exacerbation : Infection of the tracheobronchial tree. Pneumothorax. Air pollution Sputum retention with lobar or segmnetal collapse. Air pollution. Expansion of large bullae. Excessive sedation or opioid analgesia. In one third the cause cant be identified.
Slide 34-

. What organisms are associated with acute exacerbation of COPD? Common organisms: Haemophilus influenzae and Streptococcus pneumoniae. Other less common organisms are = Moraxella catarrhalis, Chlamydia pneumoniae. Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Viral infections ‘’ rhinovirus , influenza , coronavirus , adenovirus‘’
Slide 35-

How can you predict acute infective exacerbation? We can predict acute infective exacerbation by— Increased breathless and cough Increased sputum volume and purulence Fever
Slide 36-

Respiratory failure What are the causes of type I respiratory failure? The causes of type I respiratory failure are: Acute asthma Emphysema Pulmonary edema Pneumonia Lung fibrosis
Slide 37-

Respiratory failure 2 What are the causes of type II respiratory failure? The causes of type II respiratory failure are: Acute severe asthma COPD “chronic bronchitis” Ankylosing spondylitis Kyphoscoliosis. Drug overdose. Neuromusculr diseases “ GBS, myastheni gravis , …”
Slide 38-

Mx of acute COPD Hospitalization Oxygen 24% or 28% (Continuous low concentration oxygen via Venturi mask) Bronchodilators: Nebulized short-acting β2-agonists combined with an anticholinergic agent (e.g. salbutamol with ipratropium). Sulbutamol 5mg every 2_4 hours by nebulizer , ibratropium bromide 500 microgram every 4_6 hours by nebulizer. IV aminophylline if not improved by nebulizer. Corticosteroids: Oral prednisolone—30 mg daily for 10 days. Antibiotics: Amoxicillin or macrolide. Respiratory support: Noninvasive ventilation for severe hypercapneic respiratory failure (pH<7.35) Respiratory stimulant, i.e. doxapram if noninvasive ventilation is not available. If no improvement : INVASIVE MV .
Slide 39-

What are the principles of O2 therapy in respiratory failure? The principles are: In type I, high concentration (i.e.>35%, usually 60%)/high flow (6–8 L/min) In type II, low concentration (24%–28%)/low flow(1–2L/min).
Slide 40-

CONTROLLED O2 ? Why low concentration O2 given in COPD? Or what happens when high flow O2 given? A small percentage of patients with severe chronic COPD and type II respiratory failure develop abnormal tolerance to raised PaCO2. The patient may become dependent on hypoxic drive for respiration High flow oxygen blunts the chemoresponsiveness of the respiratory center in the medulla (part of the brainstem) and thus aggravates respiratory failure (Type 2 respiratory failure). To avoid this, in these patients, lower concentrations of oxygen 24%–28% by Venturi mask should be used to avoid precipitating worsening respiratory depression
Slide 41-

What are the complications of COPD? The complications of COPD are: Pulmonary hypertension Cor pulmonale Respiratory failure Polycythemia Pneumothorax Secondary infection CA lung.

Slide 44-

What is pleural effusion? The accumulation of serous fluid within the pleural space is termed pleural effusion. What is the Light’s criteria? Light’s criteria is for distinguishing pleural transudate from exudate. Plural fluid is likely exudate if one or more of the following criteria are met: Pleural fluid protein : serum protein ratio > 0.5 Pleural fluid LDH : serum LDH ratio > 0.6 Pleural fluid LDH > two-thirds of the upper limit of normal serum LDH

Collagen diseases (rheumatoid arthritis and SLE). Lymphoma Bilateral extensive pulmonary TB. Pulmonary infarction. Malignancy (usually multiple metastases involving both lungs).
Slide 53-

What are the causes of hemothorax (blood stained fluid)? As follows: Chest injury or trauma Bronchial carcinoma Pulmonary infarction Pleural mesothelioma Others – SLE, lymphoma, acute pancreatitis.
Slide 54-

What are causes of empyema? As follows: Bacterial pneumonia Lung abscess (bursting in pleural cavity) Bronchiectasis Tuberculosis Secondary infection after aspiration Rupture of subphrenic abscess or liver abscess Infected hemothorax
Slide 55-

empyema How to diagnose empyema thoracis clinically? As follows: From history: High fever, sometimes hectic, may be associated with chill, rigor and sweating. Fever is persistent or recurrent despite treatment with a suitable antibiotic. Malaise, weight loss. Pleuritic chest pain, breathlessness. Copious purulent sputum if empyema rubtures into a bronchus (bronchopleural fistula). On examination: Toxic, emaciated. Tachypnea. Tachycardia. Features of pleural effusion. Clubbing. To be confirmed—aspiration which shows pus or purulent fluid.

What are causes of chylothorax (milky or whitish fluid due to lymph)? Injury or obstruction of thoracic duct due to any of the following causes: Traumatic (surgery and trauma to the thoracic duct) Neoplastic (bronchial carcinoma and metastasis) Infective (tuberculosis and filariasis) Lymphoma involving thoracic duct.
Slide 58-

What are the causes of recurrent pleural effusion? As follows: Bronchial carcinoma Pleural mesothelioma Lymphoma Collagen disease (SLE) All causes of transudate (CCF, nephrotic syndrome, cirrhosis of liver)
Slide 59-

What are the mechanisms of pleural effusion? Excess pleural fluid accumulation occurs when pleural fluid formation exceeds absorption or normal pleural fluid formation with reduced absorption. Probable mechanisms are: Increased hydrostatic pressure (as in CCF) Reduced plasma colloidal osmotic pressure (as in hypoproteinemia) Involvement of pleura causing increased permeability (as in TB and tumor) Impaired lymphatic drainage of pleural space (as in obstruction of lymphatic system by tumor, TB and radiation) Transdiaphragmatic passage of fluid (in liver disease, ascites and acute pancreatitis).
Slide 60-

Clinical findings : Stony dullness on percussion and reduced or absent breath sound (confirmed by aspiration). What findings will you get by examining the patient with right-sided pleural effusion? Inspection Movement diminished on right side Palpation Trachea and apex beat deviated to left Expansibility reduced on right side Vocal fremitus diminished on right side Percussion Stony dull on right side Auscultation Breath sound diminished or absent on right side Vocal resonance diminished or absent on right side.
Slide 61-

invx What investigations do you suggest? As follows: X-ray chest P/A view Hb%, TC, DC, ESR (high ESR in TB, leukocytosis in pneumonia) Mantoux test (MT) Aspiration of pleural fluid for analysis- Physical appearance (straw colored, serous, hemorrhagic, chylous) Gram-staining, cytology (routine) and exfoliative cytology (malignant cells) Biochemistry (protein and sugar), also a simultaneous blood sugar, protein and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) may be done ADA (high in tuberculosis) Culture and sensitivity (C/S) AFB and mycobacterial C/S
Slide 62-

cont Pleural biopsy by Abram’s or Cope’s needle Other investigation of pleural fluid (according to suspicion of cause): Cholesterol, LDH and rheumatoid factor (in rheumatoid arthritis) Amylase (high in acute pancreatitis, esophageal rupture, malignancy) Trigycerides (in chylothorax) Sputum (if present) for Gram staining, C/S, AFB, mycobacterial C/S and malignant cells (exfoliative cytology) If palpable lymph node: FNAC or biopsy (for lymphoma, metastasis) Other investigations according to suspicion of causes include: ANF, anti-ds DNA (SLE) Liver function tests Urine for protein and serum total protein (nephrotic syndrome) Bronchoscopy and biopsy (if needed in bronchial carcinoma) CT scan in some cases (it helps to clarify pleural abnormalities more readily than chest X-ray and ultrasonogram, and also helps to distinguish between benign and malignant diseases).
Slide 63-

? How to confirm if there is small effusion? (if not detected by chest X-ray PA view.) By doing: X-ray in lateral decubitus position Ultrasonogram (USG) of lower part of the chest Occasionally, CT scan of chest may be needed. Pleural effusion Pleural fluid normally present: 5 to 15 mL At least 500 mL of fluid is necessary to detect clinically At least 300 mL of fluid is necessary to detect radiologically in PA view At least 100 mL of fluid is necessary to detect radiologically in lateral decubitus position Less than 100 mL or small amount of fluid is detected by ultrasonography (even 20 to 25 mL fluid can be detected).
Slide 64-

What are the purposes of aspiration? Diagnostic purposes To detect the cause. Therapeutic purposes To reduce breathlessness How much fluid should be drawn in case of diagnosis and therapeutic purposes? At least 50 mL for diagnostic purpose and not more than 1.5 L on first occasion
Slide 65-

Slide 66-

ppt slide no 66 content not found
Slide 67-

What are the causes of low pH and low glucose in pleural fluid? As follows: Infection (empyema) Tuberculosis Advanced malignancy SLE Rheumatoid arthritis Esophageal rupture.
Slide 68-

What is the role of pleural fluid amylase? Pleural fluid amylase may be higher than serum amylase in acute pancreatitis, bacterial pneumonia, esophageal rupture and malignancy. It is high in adenocarcinoma of lung and may be useful in differentiating it from mesothelioma.
Slide 69-

Pleural fluid analysis.. Increased TAG= chylothorax. Increased cholesterol = RA. Increased ADA , Gamma interferon=T.B. Increaesed RF = RA. Increased ANA= SLE.
Slide 70-

How can you suspect malignant effusion? As follows: Clincally—elderly emaciated or cachexic patient having clubbing with nicotine stain, palpable lymph node, radiation mark on the chest, etc. Pleural fluid is hemorrhagic and there is rapid accumulation after aspiration
Slide 71-

mx. Large pleural effusion causing dyspnea should be drained with not more than 1500 ml at one set. Treatment should be according to cause.For example Parapneumonic pleural effusions : _ uncomplicated : it should improve clinically with the appropriate antibiotics . Doesn’t need drainage. _ complicated parapneumonic pleural effusion and empyema : antibiotics and urgent drainage to avoid organization into fibrous peels ( fibrous encasement of lung ) . If loculated , do intrapleural injection of fibrinolytic agent or thoracoscopy to lyse adhesions and improve drainage.
Slide 72-

Surgery is required : _ for thick parapneumonic pleural effusion tha cant be drained by small bore tube. _ to drain loculated pleural fluid. _ decortication to remove thick , inelastic pleural peels that restrict ventilation. ________________________________________ Uncomplicated = sterile , LDH < 500 , WBC 5000 _ 25,000 /ml PMN , small to moderate size ( < ½ hemithorax ) , free flowing and not loculated , pleural fluid glucose = serum glucose.
Slide 73-

Complicated = Sterile , PH < 7.3 , glucose < 60 mg% , LDH > 1000 , large size (> ½ hemithorax ) , loculation , air fluid level or high PMN count. Empyema = Pus in pleural space or pleural fluid with organism on gram stain or culture . WBC 25,000 _ 100, 000 , glucose < 60 mg % (often very low ) , low PH , thick pleura on CT scan.
Slide 74-

If tuberculosis:Full course antitubercular therapy ( improvement within 6 weeks ) . Prednisolone 20 to 30 mg daily may be given for 4 to 6 weeks, especially in large effusion, will increase absorption and prevent fibrosis. Drainage if empyema.
Slide 75-

How to treat recurrent pleural effusion? Malignant ? Treatment of recurrent pleural effusion is done by pleurodesis in the following way: A plain rubber tube is introduced in the intercostal space, and fluid is removed as far as possible. Introduce the drug, tetracycline (500 mg) or kaolin or talc through the tube, clamp it and keep for 4 to 8 hours (may be overnight). In malignant pleural effusion, bleomycin 30 to 60 mg is introduced. Patients’ posture should be changed 2 hourly to allow the drug to spread in pleural space. After 4 to 8 hours, remove any remaining fluid and take out the drainage tube at the height of inspiration. The patient usually complains of severe chest pain after pleurodesis. In such case, analgesic should be given.
Slide 76-

What will happen if you aspirate more than 1.5 L or rapidly? Re-expansion pulmonary edema. Mechanism Because of effusion, lung is compressed and there is ischemia to lung parenchyma and necrosis of pulmonary vessels. If more fluid is drawn, there is rapid expansion of the lung, as no regeneration of necrotic vessels. As a result, more leakage of fluid causing pulmonary edema

ACS . What is ACS? Why both of them known as collectively? ACS means acute coronary syndrome. Acute coronary syndrome is a term that encompasses both unstable angina and MI (STEMI and NSTEMI). These two are considered collectively as initial emergency management is same done by using ACS triage therapy. It is also a dynamic process, i.e. unstable angina if not treated appropriately in time, may progress to MI
Slide 80-

What is unstable angina? Unstable angina is characterized by new-onset or rapidly worsening angina (crescendo angina), angina on minimal exertion or angina at rest in the absence of myocardial damage. Cardiac enzymes are not raised. What is myocardial infarction (MI)? Acute ischemic necrosis of an area of myocardium is called myocardial infarction. Cardiac enzymes are raised.

CONTRAINDICATION (AHA/ACCF)
Slide 96-

What are the thrombolytic agents? Streptokinase, alteplase,reteplase and tenecteplas
Slide 97-

8. ACE inhibitor can counteract ventricular remodelling and thus – Prevent the onset of heart failure Improve survival Reduce recurrent MI Avoid rehospitalization. Continued in patient with CCF or EF < 40% .
Slide 98-

9. Lipid lowering agents = statins . 10. Full dose of IV heparin until APTT is 2 times the control or LMWH (eg= enoxaparin 1mg/kg S/C every 12 hr) .
Slide 99-

summary 1.All patient with suspected STEMI should have continuous ECG monitoring in an area with full resuscitation facilities 2.Patient should receive immediate aspirin 300 mg PO and clopidogrel 300 mg or 600 mg according to reperfusion strategy , or other P2y12 inhibitors. 3.O2 only given if saturation less than 90% or HF. 4. good Analgesia “ IV morphine 4 mg “ kill the pain before the pain killing the patient. “ don’t give IM voltarine in suspected ACS”. 5. S/L Nitarate , heparin “UFH or LMWH”. 6. Most important step in STEMI management is = REPERFUSUION “ either by PCI or fibrinolysis ”
Slide 100-

Complications What are the immediate complications of MI? Arrhythmia LVF Right ventricular infarction Cardiogenic shock
Slide 101-

Early complications are: Pericarditis Re_ infarction Mechanical complications are: Rupture of chorda tendinae or papillary muscle damage leading to MR Rupture of interventricular septum leading to VSD. Late complications are: Ventricular aneurysm Dressler’s syndrome (pleurisy, pericarditis, and pyrexia-3P) Shoulder hand syndrome.
Slide 102-

Points to be noted Most dangerous complication of MI is ventricular fibrillation. Immediate cause of death after MI is ventricular fibrillation and cardiac arrest/ asystole. Anterior MI is worse, because it causes arrhythmia. Inferior MI causes bradycardia and heart block .? In inferior MI, heart failure is common.

Complication ? What are the complications of atrial fibrillation? Thromboembolism – CVA, acute limb ischemia Heart failure ( tachycardia in induced cardiomyopathy).
Slide 117-

Mx. Treat the underlying cause . ( drug , cardiac, thyroid or pulmonary ). If unstable :_ Electrical DC cardio version (200j ). If stable :_ Rate control :_ B.Blockers Or Rate limiting CCB (verapamil or diltiazem) Or Digoxin or amiodarone if heart failure.
Slide 118-

Rhythm control Rhythm control :_ chemical cardioversion : (amiodarone , propafenone or flecainide ). electrcial cardioversion ± anticoagulant according to the following guidelines :_ If < 48 hours , you can usually cardiovert without anticagulation. If > 48 hours : Do transesophageal echo if negative for thrombous , cardiovert. Or Anticoagulate the patient for 3 weeks before and 4 weeks after cardioversion. If cardioverted start anti arrhythmic ( amiodarone , flecainide or propafenone ) . To prevent recurrence
Slide 119-

Anticoagulants . How can you assess risk of thromboembolism in atrial fibrillation? By using the CHADS score: Congestive heart failure (1 point) Hypertension (1 point) Age ≥ 75 (1 point) Diabetes mellitus (1 point) Stroke or transient ischemic attack (2 points) Score: 0 = aspirin therapy only, 1= warfarin or aspirin, and ≥ 2 = warfarin

Dx ? Acute upper GIT bleeding complicated by hypovolemic shock (requiring immediate fluid resuscitation and gastric decompression) . The long standing history of HCV along the presence of confusion , icterus , asterixis suggest significant liver disease ( liver cirrhosis ) which has been acutely complicated by hepatic encephalopathy . The cause of upper GIT bleeding is = esophageal varices. ( B/C of portal HTN suggested by ascitis , splenomegaly , bicytopenia ). The precipitating factor for encephalopathy is upper GIT bleeding.
