CRRAB2 Flashcards
What is the branch after Segmental bronchi?
Terminal brnochiole
At rest, how long is blood in the capillary?
0.75 seconds
how much is in functional residual capacity?
2.5 L
What is total capacity of lungs?
7 L
How do you calculate functional residual capacity?
Helium! C1V1=C2(V1+V2) solve for V2
How do you calculate alveolar ventilation?
Alveolar ventilation = VCO2/PCO2 X K VCO2 is rate at which CO2 is produced. PCO2 is doubled, VA is 1/2
How do you calculate anatomical dead space?
Nitrogen is inhaled then look for steepest part of graph
How do you calculate physiologic dead space?
VD/VT=(PACO2-PExhaledCO2)/PACO2 Volume deadspace/tidal volum = Alveolar CO2 pressure - Exhaled CO2 all over Alveolar CO2
If there is unequal solubility in blood and blood-gas barrier, what kind of limitations does it have getting into blood?
Diffusion limited
How do you calculated diffusion capacity?
=Volume of CO transfered/partial pressure difference of CO.
Meanarterial pressure calculation?
Systolic pressure minus 2/3 difference
Normal atrial pressure is what?
5
Fick equation
Ecstasy stuff. XTC. you know it
rankings or pressure for zone 2 in breathing
Part>Palv>PVenous
How do hypoxic alveoli make capillaris close?
block voltage gated potassium channels and cause depolarization and calcium channels open
Causes of hypoxia
hypoventilation, diffusion limitations, shunt, ventilation:perfusion mismatch
How do you calculate the oxygen in air?
Air pressure-47 X 0.2093 (to take out humidity then the ratio that is oxygen
See if this is the same equation listed above for alveolar ventilation
