Q

Central Controller

Medullary respiratory center

DRG

VRG

2 parts

Apneaustic area in pons

Pneumotaxic center of pons

A
  • Dorsal respiratory group (DRG): Cells have inherent rhythm that causes inspiratory cycles , controls diaphragm & external intercostals. Active for 2 sec during inspiration & quiet for 3 sec during expiration.
  • Ventral respiratory group (VRG): Increased DRG activity stimulates the VRG which stimulates internal intercostals & abdominal muscle layers during forced expiration.

Apneustic: Stimulates DRG for normal inspiration (2 sec) or longer during forced inspiration (maximum inhalation)

Pneumo:

  • Inhibits apneustic area to allow exhalation;
  • Modifies the pace set by DRG and VRG;
  • Its absence causes increase in depth of respiration and a decrease in respiratory rate.

Physiologic Deadspace definition Deadspace is the ____ that is ____ but not ____ with blood, so there is no ____ exchange and it does not eliminate what?
is the volume of (wasted ) air that does not eliminate CO2. Also called functional dead space. Not all of the alveoli are perfused with blood; air in these alveoli doesn't exchange with the blood and is part of the dead space. Dead space is the volume of lung that is ventilated, but is not perfused with blood, so there is no gas exchange, and it does not eliminate CO2

160
T cells Divided into? One type causes a low level of IgG response Other produces (IL4,5,6,9, and 13) Asthma is cause by a cellular imbalance favoring\>
* T lymphocytes are divided into CD8+ TC (cytotoxic) cells and CD4+ TH (helper) cells. T helper cells are further divided into TH1 and TH2 cells based on the cytokines they produce. * TH1 cells cause a low-level of IgG response. * TH2 cells, which produce IL-4, IL- 5, IL-6, IL-9, and IL-13, guide the immune response toward a humoral response. * Asthma is caused by a cellular imbalance favoring TH2 over TH1 and a humoral response involving strong IgE-mediated reactions rather than low-level IgG responses.
161
COPD definition
COPD, a common preventable and treatable disease, is characterized by persistent airflow limitation that is usually progressive and associated with an enhanced chronic inflammatory response in the airways and the lung to noxious particles or gases. Exacerbations and comorbidities contribute to the overall severity in individual patients.
162
Expiration process (passive)
1. Inspiratory muscle relax (diapragm rises and rib cage decends) 2. Thoracic cavity volume decreases 3. Elastic lungs recoil passively --\> lung volume decreases 4. Pulmonary pressure increases 5. Air flows down its pressure gradient
163
Erythropoeisis
164
How to measure lung volume
* Spirometry * Tidal and Vital capacity * Also helium (FRC)

Vesicular Release of mast cells Perfromed mediators (from the granules) \_\_\_\_\_- has 3 effects \_\_\_\_ has 2 effects Newly formed lipid mediators (eicosanoids) \_\_\_\_ D2 increases cytokine and induces bronchoconstriction \_\_\_\_ (LTC4 and LTD4 and LTE4: central to the pathophysiology of asthma because they induce marked bronchoconstriction mucus hypersections and capillary leakagem vasegenic edemam recruit additional inflammatory cells
* Histamin * Causes localized inflammatory immune response * Increase blood vessel permeability and promotes leakage, leading to airwat EDEMA * Tryptase * Activates receptors on epithelia and endothelial cells, inducing the expression of adhesion molecules that attract eosinophils and basophils * Causing hyperplasia of airway smooth muscle cells and contributing to aiway hyperresponsiveness * Prostaglandins * Leukotriene
166
Immune system in Asthma Antibodies Inflammatory cells: Inflammatory mediators: The antibody class of allergic disease is? Fundamental to?
* (IgM, IgG, IgA, IgD, and IgE) An antibody, or an immunoglobulin (Ig), is a small protein molecule created by the immune system to have a close structural "fit" to the surface of a foreign substance. The foreign substance is an antigen. Five classes of antibodies, namely IgM, IgG, IgA, IgD, and IgE, depending on their particular functions in the immune response * Granulocytes: mast cells, eosinophils Agranulocytes: lymphocytes… * Chemical substances that are secreted by immune cells to induce (or respond to) an ongoing immune response generated against a specific exposure to the body. * IgE fundamental to the allergic response
167
* Inspiration is ____ but _____ during rest is passive. The most important muscle of respiration is the? * The _____ curve is nonlinear and shows \_\_\_\_. The ____ pressure of the lung is attributable to both its ____ tissue and the _____ \_\_\_ of the alveolar linging layer * Properties of ___ affect lung compliance and abnormal ____ production causes? * ____ \_\_\_\_ of the airways during forced expiration results in flow that is ____ independent.
* Inspiration is active, but expiration during rest is passive. The most important muscle of respiration is the diaphragm. * The pressure-volume curve of the lung is nonlinear and shows hysteresis. The recoil pressure of the lung is attributable to both its elastic tissue and the surface tension of the alveolar lining layer. * Properties of surfactant affect lung compliance, and abnormal surfactant production causes IRDS. * Dynamic compression of the airways during a forced expiration results in flow that is “effort independent”.

Airway cross sectional area 2 things, end result
1. Individual airway diameter, decreases with branching 2. Overall or total cross-sectional diameter increases a lot This results in a decreased airflow speed and a decrease in resistnance causing optimal diffusion.

Neurochemical control of ventilation The 3 basic eliments of the respiratory control system:
