21
Q

What are central chemoreceptors sensitive to that will cause breathing?

A

pH, specifically H+ ions that cross the BBB

22
Q

What is the normal partial pressures of O2, CO2, in gas exchange at the alveolar-capillary membrane?

A
  • O2 = 104 mmHg

- CO2 = 40 mmHg

23
Q

What are the factors that cause a right shift in the oxyhemoglobin saturation curve?

A
  1. increased CO2
  2. Increased DPG 2,3
  3. Increased exercise
  4. Decreased pH
  5. Increased altitude
  6. increased temperature
24
Q

how readily the elastic forces accept a volume of inspired air

A

Lung compliance

C = change in volume/ change in pressure

25
Q

ability to respond directly to force and return to its original resting position or shape after the external force no longer exists

A

elastance

E = change in pressure/ change in volume

26
Q

This respiratory pattern is characterized by periods of respiration during which the VT starts shallow and gets progressively deeper, and then gets progressively shallower. This shallow-deep-shallow pattern is followed by periods of significant apnea that can last up to 30s or longer, then the cycle starts over. each cycle can take anywhere btwn 30 and 2 minutes or longer.

A

Cheyne-Stokes respirations

Seen in:

  1. strokes
  2. TBI
  3. Brain tumor
  4. carbon monoxide poisoning
  5. metabolic encephalopathy
27
Q

A type of labored or hyperventilation characterized by a consistently deep and rapid respiratory pattern

A

Kussmaul’s respirations

Seen in:
a severe metabolic acidosis such as diabetic ketoacidosis

28
Q

Respiratory pattern that has a prolonged inspiration phase followed by a prolonged expiratory phase

A

Apneustic respirations
- long expiratory phase commonly believed to be apneic phases

Seen in:
damage sustained to the upper pons

29
Q

abnormally prolonged and deep breathing

A

hyperventilation

30
Q

reduction in the amount of air entering the pulmonary alveoli which causes an increase in arterial CO2 level

A

hypoventilation

31
Q

Which portion of the electrocardiogram (ECG) represents a small deflection sometimes seen just after the T wave, representing the final phase of ventricular repolarization?

A

U wave

32
Q

Name the five traditionally designated auscultatory areas and their corresponding intercostal space

A
  1. Aortic valve area – 2nd R intercostal space
  2. Pulmonic area – 2nd L intercostal space
  3. Second pulmonic area – 3rd L intercostal space
  4. Tricuspid area – 4th L intercostal space
  5. Mitral area – 5th L intercostal space, midclavicular line
33
Q

What are the parts of the EKG and what do they represent?

A

P - Spread of a stimulus through Atria (Atrial depolarization)
PR interval - time from initial stimulus of atria to initial stimulus of ventricles (.12-.2s)
QRS - the spread of a stimulant through the ventricles (Ventricular depolarization)
ST seg and T - the return of stimulated ventricular muscle to a resting state (Ventricular repolarization)
U - small deflection sometimes after T
QT interval - the time elapsed from the onset of ventricular depolarization until the completion of ventricular depolarization, with the interval varying with the cardiac rate

34
Q

irregular breaths varying in depth and interrupted by intervals of apnea but lacking repetitive pattern, associated with increased intracranial pressure

A

Biot respirations

35
Q

a narrowing or constriction that prevents the valve from opening fully and may be caused by scars or abnormal deposits on the leaflets; causes obstruction to blood flow and the chamber behind the narrow valve must produce extra work to sustain cardiac output

A

stenosis

36
Q

occurs when the valve does not close properly and causes blood to flow back into the heart chamber; the heart gradually dilates in response to the increased volume work

A

Insufficiency (regurgitation)

37
Q

Name this part of the cardiac cycle: Ventricular contraction causes the AV valves to close from contraction of papillary muscles; All valves closed

A

Isovolumetric contraction

- S1 happens here

38
Q

Name this part of the cardiac cycle: intraventricular pressure falls sufficiently causing semilunar valves to close; all valves are closed

A

Isovolumetric relaxation

  • S2 happens here
  • dicrotic notch happens here (associated with a small back flow of blood into the ventricles resulting in aortic and pulm a. pressure tracings)
39
Q

List the events of conduction through the heart

A
  1. SA node generates impulse
  2. Impulses pause (.1s) at the AV node
  3. AV bundle connects the atria to the ventricle
  4. Bundle branches conduct the impulses through the inter ventricular septum
  5. Purkinje fibers depolarize the contractile cells of both ventricles
40
Q

What are the steps of oxygen transport?

A
  1. inspired oxygen and quality of ambient air
  2. Airways
  3. Lungs and chest wall
  4. diffusion
  5. Myocardial function
  6. perfusion
  7. peripheral circulation
  8. tissue extraction and use of oxygen
  9. Return of partially desaturated blood and CO2 to the lungs
