lateral view
What type of muscles are in the vocal folds and what innervates them?
- Skeletal muscles
- Recurrent laryngeal nerve
What is the formula to calculate Transpulmonary Pressures (PTP)? What other pressure does this formula work for?
- PTP= Aveolar Pressure (PA) - Pleural Pressure (PIP)
- Elastic Pressure (PEL)
What is the formula for Tidal Volume?
What is the formula in minute ventilation?
What are the normal values for each?
- VT= VDS + VA
- Minute Vent= VT x (RR)
- Resp. Rate= 12 bpm
- Tidal Volume= 500 mL; 6 L/min
- Dead Space Volume= 150 mL; 1.8 L/ min
- Aveolar Volume= 350 mL; 4.2 L/ min
What are the normal volumes for:
Tidal Volume
Residual Volume
Expiratory Reserve Volume
Inspiratory Reserve Volume
- TV= 500 mL
- RV= 1.5 L
- ERV= 1.5 L
- IRV= 2.5 L
Which volumes make up the following capacities and their normal values:
Total Lung Capacity
Inspiratory Capacity
Functional Residual Capacity
Working/ Vital Capacity
- TLC= 6 L
- IC= IRV+VT= 3.0 L
- FRC= ERV+RV= 3.0 L
- VC= IRV+VT+ERV= 4.5 L
Abbreviations: A,a,C,P,V
A: alveolar
a: arterial
C: content
P: pressure
V: ventilation
PA>Pv>Pa
- West Perfusion Zone 1
- no blood flow
- In a healthy lung, there should not be a zone 1
Pa>PA>Pv
- West Perfusion Zone 2
- Pulsatile flow; “In between”
- Pulsatile blood flow during higer pressures times of the cardiac cycle and tapers off with a lower pulm blood pressure
- top portions of the lung
Pa>Pv>PA
- West Perfusion Zone 3
- Continuous flow; “always on”
- Normally in the bottom 1/2 of the lung
The effects of the weight of the lung on blood flow at the very base of the lung that sits on the diaphragm
- West Perfusion Zone 4
- A subset of Zone 3; reduces the amount of blood flow in the very bottom portion of the base
- the weight of the lungs compress the easily collapsable pulm vein and arteries
Primary muscle for inpiration and ventilation
Diaphragm
Supportive muscles that aid in inspiration? Expiration?
- Intercostal and scalene muscles
- Intercostal muscles and abdominal muscles (for max expiratory effort)
How many scalene muscles are there and where are the attachment points?
- 3 Scalene Muscles
- 5: Anterior; C3-C6 and attach to Rib 1
- 6: Middle; C3-C7 and attach to Rib 1
- 7: Posterior; C5-C7 and attach to Rib 2
Describe the diaphragm, innervation, and where is it attached?
- Dome-shaped striated skeletal muscle that is thought of as two leaflets or domes
- Phrenic nerve
- Anchored into the L-spine bodies
What are the three openings and their orientation in the body?
- Caval Aperture- most anterior
- Aortic Aperture- most posterior
- Esphogeal Aperture- between the two
Which aperture is most anterior and which is most posterior?
- Caval Aperture is most anterior
- Aortic Aperture is most posterior
What is the largest cartilaginous part of the larynx (voice box)?
- Thyroid Cartilage
During growth and development, _____ segments in the ______ lung fuse together.
4; left
Generation 0-16 is known as the ______.
Generation 0 is the ______.
- Conducting Zone

What are airways with no cartilage?
Bronchioles
Starting from the trachea, list the path of air during inspiration.
Trachea> bronchi> bronchioles> terminal bronchioles> respiratory bronchioles> alveolar ducts> alveolar sacs
Vocal cords are fastened anteriorly at the ______.
Thyroid cartilage
The larynx is innervated by what nerve?
Recurrent laryngeal nerve
Generations 17-23 are known as ?
Transitional and Respiratory Zones
Starting generation point for alveoli to show up
Generation 17
How many generations total do we have?
24; trachea is zero
