NBRC Certified Respiratory Therapist - FAQ Sample Questions

Which of the following is least likely to be a sign or symptom of bronchiectasis?

Correct Answer:
increased fvc


bronchiectasis is a chronic pulmonary condition characterized by the permanent enlargement and destruction of the bronchial tubes. this condition leads to symptoms and signs that are indicative of respiratory system dysfunction. to understand which of the given options is least likely to be a sign or symptom of bronchiectasis, it's crucial to have a basic understanding of common manifestations of the disease and how lung function is typically affected.

firstly, considering the option of "increased fvc" or forced vital capacity, this is unlikely to be associated with bronchiectasis. in bronchiectasis, the lung's airways are damaged and scarred, which typically leads to a decrease in the amount of air that can be forcibly exhaled from the lungs. therefore, both fvc and other related spirometry measurements such as fev1 (forced expiratory volume in one second) and fef25%-75% (forced mid-expiratory flow rate) are generally reduced, not increased. this reduction in lung function is due to the obstruction or collapse of the airways and loss of elasticity in the lung tissue.

the other options listed—including barrel chest, recurrent pulmonary infections, and digital clubbing—are indeed commonly associated with bronchiectasis. a "barrel chest" can develop as a result of the chronic hyperinflation of lungs, which is common in many chronic pulmonary diseases including bronchiectasis. recurrent pulmonary infections occur due to the inability to clear mucus from the bronchi, providing a breeding ground for bacteria and viruses. digital clubbing, a deformity of the fingers and fingernails, is a sign of chronic hypoxia, a condition often seen in patients with significant bronchiectasis due to poor air exchange.

in summary, while recurrent pulmonary infections, digital clubbing, and barrel chest are symptoms or signs often seen in bronchiectasis, an increased fvc is not typical of this condition. instead, decreased fvc and other measures of lung function are characteristic findings, reflecting the impaired pulmonary mechanics associated with bronchiectasis. thus, "increased fvc" is the correct answer as the least likely sign or symptom of bronchiectasis among the options provided.
