Air Trapping PFT Results? (TMC Practice Question) | Respiratory Therapy Zone

What would the PFT results look like if a patient has air trapping? This video breaks down a sample TMC Practice Question on this topic. 🟦 TMC Test Bank (All Practice Questions) 👉 http://bit.ly/2IGeqSu​​​​ 🟦 Daily TMC Practice Questions (via Email) 👉 http://bit.ly/2NnXh3C​ ➡️ Question: You are assessing a patient with chronic asthma. She has an SVC of 3,500 mL and an FVC of 2,500 mL. Which of the following best explains this difference? A. Increased compliance during a forced expiration B. Poor instruction by the previous respiratory therapist C. Muscle fatigue during a forced expiration D. Air trapping during a forced expiration ➡️ Rationale Explanation: The first thing that should stand out in the question is that the patient has asthma, which is an obstructive disease. And we know that air trapping is a commonality in obstructive diseases. If a patient has a significant difference between their slow vital capacity and forced vital capacity, this also indicates that air is trapped in the lungs when the patient exhales forcefully. Because the airways are obstructed or constricted, as with bronchospasm in asthma, all of the air can be expelled if the patient exhales slowly, it just takes longer. This explains why the values are lower with the FVC as compared to the SVC. ————— 📗 BEST STUDY GUIDES FOR YOU ▪ TMC Test Bank 👉 http://bit.ly/2IGeqSu ▪ Hacking the TMC Exam 👉 http://bit.ly/2XBc8do ▪ TMC Exam Bundle (Save $) 👉 https://bit.ly/34pqEsV ▪ Daily TMC Practice Questions 👉 http://bit.ly/2NnXh3C 💙MORE FROM RTZ ▪ Free TMC Practice Exam 👉 http://bit.ly/2XlwASL ▪ Free RRT Cheat Sheet 👉 http://bit.ly/2IbmOKB ▪ Resources for RT's 👉 http://bit.ly/2WVV5qo ▪ Testimonials 👉 http://bit.ly/2x7b5Gl 🌐FOLLOW US ▪ Instagram 👉 http://bit.ly/2FhF0jV ▪ Twitter 👉 http://bit.ly/2ZsS6T1 ▪ Facebook 👉 http://bit.ly/2MSEejt ▪ Pinterest 👉 http://bit.ly/2ZwVLPw 🚑MEDICAL DISCLAIMER Medicine and Respiratory Therapy are continuously changing practices.
