Q

Is pleural effusion restrictive or obstructive?

A

Restrictive: total lung volume decreased, so FEV1/FVC most likely won’t be affected.

Q

What happens when arterial PPO2 of less than 50mmHg or conditions of acidosis?

A

Stimulates respiratory centers to increase depth and rate of ventilation. Then the para slows down HR and myocardial contractility. If persistent hypoxia, CNS will be directly stimulated and will increase sympathetic activity.
