Q

Describe the High pressure, Low flow circulation

A

-blood leaves the heart through the descending aorta to supply the lung tissues
-return from the lungs throught the pulmonary veins and enter the left atria
- the mixing of the deoxygenated blood in the left atria is one of the reasons that you never have 100% saturation

39
Q

Describe the Low pressure, high flow circulation.

Why is the pressure low?

A

-take the deoxygenated blood to the alveolar capillaries when oxygen is added and CO2 is exchanged

because it is spread thin across the lungs to serve around 6 million alveoli

40
Q

Pulmonary edema occurs when?

A

when there is a problem with the LV

LV is weak and cannot pump blood to the aorta which causes blood to back up into the atria, pulmonary veins and pulmonary artery

41
Q

with a Swan-Ganz catheter (>20mmHg) to measure the increased pulmonary artery wedge pressure

higher

43
Q

At the top of the lung, ventilation is (higher/lower)

Higher

44
Q

If the blood flow is not moving between the alveoli and capillaries, what has happened?

A

the alveolar pressure is GREATER than the capillary pressure

45
Q

During exercise, what happens in terms of the lungs?

A

-blood flow to the lungs increases drastically
- # of capillaries increases
- capillaries distend
- small increase in pulmonary arterial pressure

46
Q

What is the most significant forces driving the absorption of fluid into the capillaries?

A

plasma colloid osmotic pressure

47
Q

What is the plasma colloid osmotic pressure? Need the number

A

-28mmHg

48
Q

What is the mean filtration pressure and where is it going?

+1 mmHg coming into the lungs but it taken up by the lymph

49
Q

What is restrictive lung disorder?

A

when you cant get enough air INTO the lungs

limited INSPIRATION

50
Q

Pulmonary fibrosis is restrictive/obstructive?

A

restricted

thick, scarred lungs make it difficult to max inspiration and gas exchange

51
Q

What is an obstructive lung disorder?

A

when you cant get all of the air OUT

expiration is limited

52
Q

Asthma is restrictive/obstructive?

A

obstructive because air is getting trapped and cannot be fully EXHALED due to collapsed bronchioles

53
Q

COPD is restrictive/obstructive

A

obstructive, because air is getting trapped and cannot be fully EXHALED due to collapsed bronchioles

54
Q

Describe small bronchiole disease

A

air gets trapped in and cannot be fully exhaled due to small bronchioles collapsing

55
Q

Be able to draw the Flow-Volume Loop

A

Be able to draw this curve

56
Q

The top of the lung has a (high/low) V/Q ratio

A

HIGH

57
Q

the bottom of the lung has a (low/high) V/Q ratio

58
Q

What is partial pressure?

A

62
Q

At sea level, what is the partial pressure for Carbon dioxide?

A

1mmHg

63

78
Q

Is diabetes metabolic acidosis/alkalosis?

79
Q

Is diarhhea metabolic acidosis/alkalosis?

A

acidosis

80
Q

Is vomiting metabolic acidosis/alkalosis?

A

alkalosis

81
Q

Is hyperventilation respiratory acidosis/alkalosis?

A

82
Q

The ____ and _____ of the brainstem regulate respiration

A

medulla and pons

83
Q

What is the dorsal respiratory group responsible for?

A

causes inspiration

84
Q

What is the ventral respiratory group is responsible for?

A

causes expiration

utilized when the respiratory drive exceeds normal breathing at rest

85
Q

What is the pneumotaxic center responsible for?

A

controls the “switch-off” point of the inspiratory drive

limit inspiration, may increase the respiratory rate to compensate

86
Q

What is the inspiratory ramp signal?

A

a steady ramp signal for 2 seconds that enable inspiration and ceases abruptly for 3 seconds to stop excitation of teh diaphragm and allow elastic recoil of the lungs (expiration)

-allows for a nice steady increase in lung volume

87
Q

When the lungs become overstretched during inspiration, what happens? at what point does this happen?

A

the inspiratory ramp “switches off”

not activated until the Tidal Volume is 3x normal

A

Oxygen

carotid and aortic bodies

89

A

peripheral chemoreceptors

CO2 and H+

90
Q

Where is it the easiest to collapse the alveoli? (top/middle/bottom)

A
