The document is a concept map about pneumothorax. It outlines the predisposing factors, precipitating factors, classifications, clinical manifestations, assessment/diagnosis, and management of pneumothorax. Predisposing factors include age, genetics, and immunocompromised status. Precipitating factors include smoking, lung disease, chest injuries, and mechanical ventilation. There are several classifications of pneumothorax including spontaneous, open, closed, and tension pneumothorax. Clinical manifestations involve pain, respiratory distress, and decreased breath sounds. Diagnosis involves imaging like CT scans and chest x-rays along with blood gas analysis and thoracentesis. Management consists of inserting a chest tube, drainage system monitoring

PREDISPOSING FACTORS: KRIZLE ADAZA | September 4, 2020
PRECIPITATING FACTORS: Age Smoking Genetics Any chest injury Exposure to second hand Immunocompromised smoke/Environment Lung Disease Previous Pneumothorax Mechanical Ventilation Aspiration of foods or fluids Pleaural is breached, air enters the pleural space
Air or blood enters the
Air enters the pleural space pleural space through rub or but does not leave bleb rupture Positive pressure has entered the pleural space, the lung or a portion of it collapses
The pleural tear act as a ball
The pleaural tear is sealed and valve mechanism
PNEUMOTHORAX
Rapid increase of pressure
The pleaural cavity pressure in chest with compression is < the atmospheric atelectais of unaffected lung pressure Increase intrathoracic pressure and reduction in vital capacity Shift in mediastinum to the opposite side of the chest Closed Pneumothorax and compression of the vena cava with impairment of venous return to the ehart The pleural cavity pressure is = the atmospheric pressure Air filled bleb or blister on The pleural caivty pressure the lung surface ruptures is > the atmmospheric pressure
Open Pneumothorax
Spontanous Pneumothorax Tension Pneumothorax
Air escapes from laceration in the lung itself and enters the plerual space or from wound in the chest wall CLINICAL MANIFESTATIONS: Air filled blebs rupture on Trapping of gases and top of the lungs destruction of lung tissue Pain Minimal Respiratiory distress Fractured and dislocated Dyspnea ribs continously and Central Cyanosis penetrate the pleura Chest Ecpansion Primary Spontanous Secondary Spontanous Breath sounds dimished or absent in both open Pneumothorax Pneumothorax and tension pneumothorax Tracheal alignment is midline or shifted away Hemothorax from the affaected side
