Introduction of CVP Flashcards
What vein is used to bypass a blockage during a CABG?
saphenous vein
What kind of prevention is it if the patient has the impairment and you are directly addressing the impairment?
Primary prevention
What kind of prevention is it when the PT addresses any other additional impairments or diseases?
Secondary prevention
formula for oxygen delivery (DO2)?
DO2 = arterial O2 x cardiac output
formula for oxygen consumption (VO2)?
VO2 = (arterial O2 - venous O2) x cardiac output
formula for oxygen extraction ratio (OER)?
OER = consumption/delivery = VO2/DO2
Oxygen transport is normally based on what?
demand of tissues
At rest, oxygen transport is how much greater than the actual demand?
3-4x
How much of the body’s oxygen is transported through hemoglobin?
98%
What is the primary mechanism for how we transport oxygen throughout the body?
Blood
Why is the balance between intravascular and extravascular fluid volume is important?
imbalance of electrolytes and water can affect the blood’s ability to transport oxygen which can impact organ function
What 3 things impacts delivery of oxygen from outside air to tissues?
1) atmospheric air
2) air quality
3) humidity
What effect does poor quality air have on the lungs?
it increases thickness of membrane in lungs making it more difficult to diffuse oxygen
How does nitrogen impact the lungs?
plays a role in keeping the alveoli open in the lungs
How does humidity impact the lungs?
humidity keeps up the mucus lining in the lungs – lack of humidity leads to erosion of the airways and possible infection from losing the mucus lining
Function of cilia?
catches debri and helps get it out
What does smoking do to cilia?
paralyzes cilia
small airways have more of what kind of muscle?
smooth muscle
large airways are ______ elastic?
less
Muscles of inspiration?
- external intercostals
- diaphragm
Muscles of expiration?
- internal intercostals
- abdominals
Function of the external intercostals during inspiration?
elevate the ribs and therefore increase the volume of the pleural cavities
Function of the diaphragm during inspiration?
depress the inferior wall of the thoracic cavity and, therefore, increase the volume of the pleural cavities
Function of the internal intercostals during expiration?
compress and lower the ribs and therefore decrease the volume of the pleural cavities
