Lab Final Flashcards
compliance
ability to stretch, related to inspiration
elasticity
ability to return from stretch, related to expiration
fibrotic lung disease
build-up of connective tissue in lungs
difficulty inhaling
emphysema
reduction in elastin fibers
difficulty exhaling
eupnea
normal breathing at rest
hyperpnea
increased ventilation rate accompanying metabolic increase
hyperventilation
increased ventilation rate without metabolic increase
hypoventilation
decreased ventilation, accumulate co2
dyspnea
difficulty breathing (asthma)
apnea
absence of breathing
spirometry
method for assessing lung function
forced expiratory volume
percent of vital capacity exhaled in given amount of time
FEV 1.0
66-83%
FEV 2.0
75-94%
FEV 3.0
78-97%
maximum voluntary ventilation (MVV)
maximum breathing capacity, measures volume and rate (L/min)
spirometer syringe
used for calibration
spirometer transducer
what is blown into
ml/min urine when hydrated
16
ml/min urine when dehydrated
0.3
urine per day
400 ml
antidiuretic hormone
(vasopressin) increase water reabsorption
aldosterone
increase SODIUM reabsorption, increase osmolarity (helps maintain body water)
atrial natriuretic peptide
from heart, reduce body water and salt, increased excretion, decrease blood pressure
glycosuria
glucose in urine
proteinuria
protein in urine
