An allergy to shellfish is a likely allergy to ______?

Diverticulosis forms in the _____?

The movement of gases across the alveolar capillary membrane from areas of high concentration to areas of lower concentration

Movement of gases into and out of the lung

Monitors the pattern of breathing and prevent overexpansion of tissues

Monitors levels of carbon dioxide, oxygen, and pH of the blood

When the interior of the tubercle becomes soft and cheese like as a result of decreased perfusion is called _____?

When tissue dies and turns into a liquid or semiliquid state

The collapse of a lung or portion of the lung

_____ develops when a blood borne substance lodges in the branch of a pulmonary artery and obstructs flow.

A common source of Pulmonary embolism is ____-?

Clients at risk for DVT and PE are treated with?

A life threatening condition characterized by a rapid shift of fluid from plasma into the pulmonary interstitial tissue and the alveoli is called ___?

Blood tinged sputum is called ____

The condition characterized by intermittent airway obstruction in response to a variety of stimuli

Caused by substances outside the body that precipitate the asthma response such as pollen, house dust, or food additives

Emphysema devolps slowly over a period of years with early onset symptoms such as?

Chronic dilation of the bronchi that may be caused by disorders such as pulmonary TB, chronic upper repiratory tract infections, cystic fibrosis.

Percussion and postural drainage are used to aid in the removal of secretions for ___?
