2. HEMOPTYSIS
3.
4. Severity
5. Etiology Make sure it is Hemoptysis
DDx:
Hematemesis
Epistaxis
Other nasopharyngeal bleeding
6. Etiology Infectious
Malignancy
Trauma/ FB
Cardiac/pulmonary vascular
DAD
Factitious
Cryptogenic
7. Etiology: Classification by site
8. Incidence & Frequency Varies in different study populations
May reflect incidence of certain disease in that certain population
9. Etiology
10. Etiology
11. Approach to Patient with Hemoptysis History & Physical Examination:
Assess Severity & Urgency
Duration of bleeding
Extent of bleeding
Reliability
Assess the Cardio-Respiratory reserve
Prior Episodes of bleeding
Clues to the cause
12. Clues from the Hx
13. Clues from the Hx
14. Clues from the Hx History of previous or co-existing disease
15. Clues from the P/E H&N
Chest
Heart
Abdomen
Skin
CNS
17. Diagnostics After comprehensive Hx & P/E
Goals:
Identify the cause
Localize the site of bleeding
Assess the general condition of the patient
18. DDx of Hemoptysis + Hematuria GBS
WG
SLE
CA Lung ( Membranous GN)
Renal cell CA ( Lung Mets)
Bleeding diathesis
19. Radiologic studies CXR
Normal in up to 30 %
Abnormality may not reflect the exact site of bleeding
Why?
CT Scan : higher yield
HRCT in certain Dx ( Bronchiactasis) ?82-97%
( compared with 37% in CXR)
20. Chest radiograph and computed tomography (CT) in a patient who has a cavitary, squamous cell carcinoma.
The cavitary lesion cannot be seen on the chest radiograph,
But it is clearly demonstrated by the CT scan .
22. Bronchoscopy
23. Bronchogenic carcinoma visualized through the fiberoptic bronchoscope.
The tumor occludes the left upper lobe and is actively bleeding
24. Other Radiologic studies
25. Management Varies with
the severity of bleeding
The cause of bleeding
General condition /Cardio-resp. Reserve
26. Management of Non-Massive Hemoptysis
27. Management of Massive Hemoptysis
28. Management of Massive Hemoptysis
29. Interventions Iced Saline Lavage
Topical vasopressors
Selective intubation / ventilation
Endobronchial tamponade
Laser photocoagulation
Bronchial artery embolization
Surgery ( Lobectomy / Pneumonectomy)
31. What was the cause of Marys hemoptysis ?
