This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: 1.11 CBL - Dyspnea, Constriction of arteries to hypoventilated alveoli leading to Uneven distribution of air, methylpred- nisolone IV which is an immunosuppressant and corticosteroid, Tidal volume which can approach Physiological dead space volume, Dennis Asner tests include Chest X ray, high-pitched whistling sound known as wheezing, Increased resistance to air flow resulting in Decreased expiratory flow rates, Mast Cells produces TNF alpha, Histamine binds H1 receptors, Eosinophils which cause production of Leukotrienes C4, D4, E4, Closure of small diameter airways causing Air trapping, Turbulent air flow which produces high-pitched whistling sound, bronchoconstriction leading to Narrowing of airway diameter, smoker of which cigarette smoke, smooth muscle contraction (aka bronchospasm) which causes Airflow obstruction, Airflow obstruction which leads to Closure of small diameter airways, Dennis Asner has family history of allergies, Dennis Asner physical assessment includes wheezing, immunosuppressant and corticosteroid reducing inflammation, Uneven distribution of air causing Ventilation/Perfusion mismatch, Leukotrienes C4, D4, E4 contribute to mucus production
