in a healthy person is the pleural pressure more or less negative at the apices in a sitting position compared to the bases
more negative at the apices
what is a patients pulse pressure if his blood pressure is 140/100 mmhg
40 torr
define the interstitial space
potential space b/w the basement membranes of the alveolus epithelium and capillary epithelium
what is the pressure gradient b/w the mouth and the alveolus during normal tidal breathing in cmh2o
-3 - -5 cm h2o
what makes lung volumes change
synchronized stretching and contracting of all alveoli
in the lung what are the 3 vagal sensory receptors
irritant receptors, bronchopulmonary stretch receptors, t receptors
what are the 2 pathways that are largely responsible for collateral movement of air throughout the lung
pores of kohn and channels of lambert
what is the normal ratio of ciliated cells to goblet cells in the tracheobronchial epithelium
5:1
what measurable pressure provides a close approximation of pleural pressures
esophageal pressures
if isotropic alveolar enlargement or stretching is the primary mode of lung volume change, then alveolar surface area will change to what power of the lung volume
