what lymphatic ducts drain the lungs?
Right lymphatic duct (The same as the heart)
What are the autonomic levels for the lungs?
Sympathetics? T1?T6; Parasympathetics? CN X, OA, C1, C2
Effect of parasympathetic stimulation on the lungs
contracts bronchiolar smooth muscle, decreases goblet cells, thins mucus secretions/ broncoconstriction vasodilation
Sympathetic Levels Lungs?
T1?T6
Sympathetic Levels Trachea & Bronchi?
T1?T6
Sympathetic Levels Visceral Pleura?
T1?T6
Sympathetic Levels Parietal Pleura?
T1?T11
Sympathetic effects on lungs
relaxation of bronchiolar smooth muscle, increases goblet cells, thickens mucus secretions
When treating a patient with bronchospasm (asthma) which side of the autonomic system should be treated first? Why?”
Treat the parasympathetic side of the autonomic system first to decrease any neurally mediated bronchoconstriction. If the sympathetic side of the system is treated first, the patient may go into acute refractory bronchspasm
Stretch receptors transmit signals via the___. When the lungs are inflated, how does this affect respiration? Vagus Nerve: when the lungs are inflated this signal turns off respiration
T/F: The vagus reflex is sensitive to stretch caused by air or fluid ? causing cessation or slowing of the respiratory signal.
True: it does not differentiate.
The ___ reflex mechanism cannot distinguish between air sacs filled with air and those filled with fluid
Hering?Breuer Reflex
What baroreceptor is sensitive to oxygen?
Carotid Body ? sends its signals to the respiratory center (medulla)
With lung tissue congestion, the respiratory center receives information from the vagus nerve: what happens next?
This limits the excursion of the diaphragm
Diaphragm’s greatest excursion is in what position?
The supine position
Thoracic Diaphragm motion increases the volume of the thorax in __ planes of motion.
3 Planes of Motion
what are Tender Points, Anterior vs Posterior?
Small tense edematous areas of tenderness 2?3mm diameter which do not radiate pain. Anterior Tender Points: Diagnostic Purposes; Posterior Tender Points: Are treated with counterstrain techniques
Chapman points at the 2nd intercostal space suggest problems with?
2nd intercostal space= Thyroid, Myocardium, Esophagus, Bronchus
What are Chapman Reflex Points?
Small nodules of tissue texture change that are 2?3 mm in diameter, that are thought to be reflections of visceral dysfunction (visceral?somatic reflex). Treated by rubbing in a firm rotating motion for 10?30 seconds
