Pulmonary Concept/Patho Map : Concept map for emphysema including renal system and cardiac
Mr. S is a retired 69 year-old country attorney who was on a buying trip with his wife for old, classic cars in the mountains of Colorado when he became extremely short of breath. He went to an emergency room for evaluation. Upon evaluation, his chest had an increased anterioposterior dimension, he was restless and dyspneic. His blood gases were as follows: pH 7.30 02 88; CO2 50. Pulmonary functions test revealed decreased tidal volume and vital capacity, increased total lung capacity and prolonged forced expiratory volume. His chest x-ray revealed a flat, low diaphragm with lung hyperinflation. The physician diagnosed him with Emphysema and started him on oxygen.
