72
Q

Ventilation Functions

A

Oxygenation of the blood; accomplished by bringing new air into the alveoli during the inhalation phase

elimination of Carbon Dioxide from the blood; accomplished by the diffusion of CO2 from the blood into the alveoli and the extrusion of the CO2 by exhalation

73
Q

Acid

A

A Molecule that can donate free H+ Ions to a solution to lower its pH.

74
Q

Carbonic Acid is formed by

Q

Carbonic acid dissociates into

A

H+ ion and Bicarbonate Ion HCO3-

77
Q

Bicarbonate Ion serves as what in the blood

A

A Buffer, helping to stabilize the pH of plasma despite the continuous influx of H+ from the molecules of Lactic Acid, Fatty Acids, Ketone Bodies, and other metabolic Products

78
Q

Hypoventlation

A

79
Q

Hypoventilation is also known as

A

Respiratory Acidosis

80
Q

Hyperventilation

A

causes an abnormal decrease in carbonic acid and a corresponding rise in blood pH.

81
Q

Hyperventilation is also known as

A

Respiratory Alkalosis

82
Q

Increased muscle metabolism during exercise results in

A

an increase in CO2 production

83
Q

Spirometry

A

A technique used for measuring lung volumes and capacities

84
Q

Total Lung Capacity

A

Total volume of gas in the lungs after a maximum (froced) inhalation

85
Q

Vital Capacity

A

The maximum volume of gas that can be exhaled after a maximum inhalation

86
Q

Tidal Volume

A

The volume of gas inspired or expired during each normal unforced ventilation cycle

87
Q

Inspiratory Capacity

A

The maximum volume of gas that can be inhaled after a normal unforced exhalation

88
Q

Inspiratory Reserve Volume

A

The maximum volume of gas that can be forcefully inhaled after a normal (Tidal) inhalation

89
Q

A

The Volume of gas remaining in the lungs after a normal (unforced) exhalation

90
Q

Residual Volume

A

The volume of gas remaining in the lungs after a maximum (forced) exhalation

91
Q

Boyle’s Law

A

the pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to its volume

Q

In normal unforced ventilation, the thoracic volume is regulated by action of the

A

Diaphragm and external intercostal muscles

93
Q

During inhalation, the diaphragm is

A

Contracted

94
Q

During exhalation, the diaprhagm is

A

relaxed

Q

Restrictive Disorders

A

damage to the lung tissue results in an abnormal vital capacity test. If the disease is purely restrictive (pulmonary fibrosis) the airways may be clear, resulting in a normal FEV test. The VC is reduced, but it can be quickly exhaled.
