23
Q

What happens if there is a conduction block in one of the branches of the AV bundle?

A

depolarization will be much slower.

24
Q

What happens if there is a conduction block in the left ventricle?

A

depolarization will occur more slowly in the left ventricle than the right, causing the MEA to deviate to the left.

25
Q

Primary lymphoid tissues

A

bone marrow + thymus

26
Q

Secondary lymphoid organs and tissues

A

lymph nodes, spleen, tonsil, appendix, MALT

27
Q

Dolor

A

signs of inflamed tissue

28
Q

tumor

A

swelling

29

Q

calor

A

warmness

31
Q

histamine does what to blood vessels

A

opens them up

32
Q

Tonsillitis

A

inflammation of the palatine tonsils in the pharynx`

33
Q

Know anatomical terms to designate where lymph nodes are

A

axillary, cervical, inguinal, lumbar

34
Q

innate immunity

A

nonspecific
person is born with it (Macrophages, natural killer cells, neutrophils)

35
Q

adaptive immunity

A

specific
T/B cells

36
Q

Cell-mediated immunity

A

production of T cells that bind and destroy infected cells

37
Q

antibody-mediated-immunity

A

antibody production by B cells

38
Q

When exposed to an infection for the first time,

A

IgM concentration is higher than IgG.

The second time IgG concentration will be higher.

39
Q

How can HIV spread?

A

exchange of body fluids
sharing needles
blood transfusion

40
Q

HIV symptoms

A

flu-like symptoms in 1-2 months,
during asymptomatic period, immune system declines, lack of energy,
AIDS: shortness of breath, severe/persistent diarrhea.

41
Q

HIV diagnosis

A

ELISA

42
Q

HIV Treatment

A

nucleoside reverse transcriptase, protease inhibitors, combination drug treatments

43
Q

After ELISA, if the solution is blue that means

A

the person has the disease

44
Q

How does ELISA work?

A
45
Q

Green tube (AG) contains

A

HIV proteins

46
Q

Violet tube contains

A

serum from HIV negative patient spiked with HIV antibodies

47
Q

Blue tube

A

serum from HIV negative patient

48
Q

Orange tube (SA)

A

second antibodies

49
Q

Brown tube

A

substate

50
Q

How does emphysema affect gas exchange between the lungs and capillaries?

A

Decreased amount of alveoli reduces gas exchange; less compliance

51
Q

Pneumothorax

A

collapse of the entire lung due to air leaking into the pleural space.

52
Q

Atelectasis

A

only a portion of the lung collapses due to alveoli not being able to inflate properly. Can be due to a blockage in air passageways, low airflow, or scarring.

53
Q

Pulmozyme is a ____ that helps to

A

DNAase, chops up leftover debris from bacteria + dead lung cells.

54
Q

Why do cystic fibrosis patients get frequent bacterial infections in the lungs?

A

mucous buildup- traps pathogens from air.

55
Q

Mucus helps pathogens not get to the lungs by

A

bringing it up the trachea, pharynx

56
Q
