Overall need review Flashcards
Other Cytokines
perforin and lymphotoxin (cell toxins) gamma interferon (enhance killing power of macrophages) inflammatory factors (mobilize and bring cells to inefction cite)
lung compliance equation
delta Vl/ delta Ptp
during the end expiratory lung volume… relationship of pressures
atmospheric pressure=alveolar pressure
pleural pressure is less than atmopheric pressure
WHY? Lung wants to collapse all the time
more pull=greater negative volume
Pulmonary ventilation (l/min) equation
tidal vol (L/breath) X breathing freq (breath/min)
alveolar ventilation
air that ACTUALLY ventialtes alveoli
alveolar ventilation equation
(tidal vol-dead space vol) X breathing frequency
(l/breath) X (breath/min)
dead space= everywhere but resp. bronchioles and alveoli
Functional Residual Capacity
volume that fresh air MUST mix with in order to inc lung O2 stores and dec lung CO2 stores
ERV+RV
Small FRC
large fluctuations in O2 and CO2
inspiratory restiction
expiratory restriction
Lungs recoil, air…
is compressed
alveolar pressure rises ABOVE ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE
EXPIRATION
best places to look for mixed venous blood
right ventricle, right atrium, pulmonary artery
Dalton’s Law
gas’s pressure is proportional to its conc
carbonic anhydrase
CA
found in RBCs and endothelial cells of pulm caps
drive CO2 + H2O reaction to exhale CO2 (not to completion)
bases
bind H+
by releasing Oh- to make H2O
weak acid
incompletely dissociate
reach eqiulibrium at partial H+ release
depeds on H+ in fluid where they are
