True
False
A patient is presenting with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. The patient has a chronic productive cough with dyspnea on excretion. Arterial blood gases show a low oxygen level and high carbon dioxide level in the blood. On assessment, the patient has cyanosis in the lips and edema in the abdomen and legs. Based on your nursing knowledge and the patient's symptoms, you suspect the patient suffers from what type of COPD?
Emphysema
Pneumonia
Chronic bronchitis
Pneumothorax
A patient with emphysema may present with all of the following symptoms EXCEPT?
Barrel chest
Hyperinflation of the lungs
Hypoventilation
Hypercapnia
The term" blue bloaters" is used to describe patients with
Pulmonary hypertension
Left-sided heart failure
Chronic Bronchitis
Emphysema
An alarm beeps notifying you that one of your patient's oxygen saturation is reading 89%. You arrive to the patient's room, and see the patient comfortably resting in bed watching television. The patient is already on 2 L of oxygen via nasal cannula. The patient is admitted for COPD exacerbation. Your next nursing action would be
Continue to monitor the patient
Increase the patient's oxygen level to 3 L
Notify the doctor for further orders
Turn off the alarm settings
You are providing teaching to a patient with chronic COPD on how to perform diaphragmatic breathing. This technique helps do the following:
Increase the breathing rate to prevent hypoxemia
Decrease the use of the abdominal muscles
Encourages the use of accessory muscles to help with breathing
Strengthen the diaphragm
Which of the following statements are incorrect about discharge teaching that you would provide to a patient with COPD? Select-all-that-apply:
€It is best to eat three large meals a day that are relatively low in calories.”
€Avoid going outside during extremely hot or cold days.”
€It is important to receive the Pneumovax vaccine annually.”
€Smoking cessation can help improve your symptoms.”

Patients with chronic bronchitis have the ability to fully exhale but have limited airflow
Emphysema and chronic bronchitis are irreversible.
An incentive spirometer is used to diagnose both chronic bronchitis and emphysema.
Patients with chronic bronchitis are sometimes referred to as “blue bloaters, while patients with emphysema are sometimes referred to as “pink puffers”.
True or False: Patients with emphysema experience hypoventilation as a compensatory mechanism to help increase oxygen levels and decrease carbon dioxide levels in the body.
True
False
Which of the following is most commonly found in a patient with emphysema
