A 74-year-old retired shipyard laborer with a 45-pack-year smoking history and previous work in sandblasting and fiberglass operations presents with increasing shortness of breath and peripheral edema. On physical examination he is a thin, cyanotic man in moderate pulmonary distress. His chest shows an increased anteroposterior diameter, and the breath sounds are faint with a prolonged expiration. The liver edge is 3 cm below the right costal margin. There is no digital clubbing, but marked peripheral edema is present. Arte- rial blood gas analysis reveals a partial oxygen pressure of 43 mm Hg, a partial carbon dioxide pressure of 22 mm Hg, and a pH of 7.51. Which set of laboratory parameters is most likely to be found?
一名74岁的退休船厂工人,有45包/年的吸烟史,以前从事喷砂和玻璃纤维作业,出现呼吸急促和周围水肿。体格检查显示,他瘦弱,面色发紫,有中度肺窘迫。他的胸片显示前后径增大,呼吸音微弱,呼气延长。肝缘在右肋缘下3 cm处。没有杵状指,但有明显的外周水肿。动脉血气分析显示氧分压为43 mmhg,二氧化碳分压为22 mmhg, pH为7.51。哪一组实验室参数最有可能被发现?
(A) A
(B) B
(C) C
(D) D
(E) E
答案解析:
前后径增大、呼气延长提示患者患有慢性阻塞性肺疾病(COPD)。FEV1、用力肺活量(FVC)和FEV1∶FVC比值的降低是气道阻塞的标志。肺总量(TLC)增加是由于肺过度充气,继发于呼气流速受限。
正确答案:B
