Note from Professor

  • Module 10 Quiz

back 21

Good evening,

A few quiz reminders:

Please read carefully. Double check yourself when you see the word "NOT" and read all the choices before you answer.

Remember the difference between a symptom and a disease. A symptom is something the patient feels (2.2). A disease is the condition causing the symptoms.

A few Quiz 10 clarifications:

Hyperventilation is broken down in your text by hyper (over)/ventil (breathing)/ation (process). This was not one of the answers.

An obstructive lung disorder "caused by a blockage" makes it difficult for someone to exhale. A restrictive lung disorder "limits air into the lungs" because the lungs are restricted from expanding. This makes it difficult to fully expand the lungs while inhaling.

A PE is a pulmonary embolism. This is a "blockage of the pulmonary blood supply" caused by an embolus. Remember from Module 9, an embolism is a "mass of matter in the blood" (9.1). A pleural effusion is when fluid builds up between the tissue in the lungs and chest cavity (pleural space). According to your text, fluid is pouring into the pleura (10.3).

My best to you,

Mrs. Cutliffe
