Oxygenation Flashcards
It is the most important component of air and vital to all existence it is required for cell functioning
Oxygen
It is colorless other less tasteless and combustible gas
Oxygen
Oxygen constitute how many percent of the air we breathe
21
Absence of this can lead to cellular tissue and organism death
Oxygen
Is the process that includes inspiratory and expiratory activities exchange of gases
Oxygenation
It is the movement of oxygen and carbon dioxide involving several body systems
Oxygenation
It is the deficiency of oxygen and arterial blood
Anoxemia
The process of gas exchange between the individual and the environment
Respiration
Facilitates gas exchanges and protects the body from foreign matters particles and pathogens
Structure of the respiratory system
What are the upper respiratory system
Mouth nose pharynx larynx nasal cavity
What are the lower respiratory system
Trachea and lungs with the bronchi bronchial alveoli pulmonary capillary network and plural membrane
What are the two functional anatomy of respiratory system
Conducting zone in respiratory zone
Conducts air to lungs consists of nose pharynx larynx trachea bronchi bronchioles in terminal bronchioles
Conducting zone
It is the main side of gas exchange it consists of respiratory bronchioles alveolar ducts alveolar sacs and alveoli
Respiratory zone
This is where air warmed humidified and filtered hair traps large particles and smaller particles with the nasal turbinate and septum
Nose
It is shared pathway for air and food supplied with lymphoid tissue that traps and destroys pathogens entering with the air
Pharynx
It is a cartilaginous structure identified Adam’s apple externally providing speech maintaining airway and patency and protecting the lower airways from swallowed food and fluid
Larynx
It is lined with mucosal epithelium produce mucus traps pathogens and microscopic particulate matters swept upward toward the larynx and throat by Cilia
Trachea
It is the right and left bronchi
Primary bronchi
It is the main organ of respiration
Lungs
Gas exchange occur or respiratory zone
Lungs
It lines the thorax and the surface of diaphragm
Parietal pleura
Covers external surface of lungs
Visceral pleura
A serous lubricating fluid
Pleural fluid
They are the site of gas exchange allows for gas exchange with capillaries
Alveoli
Adult has how many alveoli
300 million
It is a thin and highly permeable membrane essential to normal gas exchange
Alveoli
Explain the cardiac cycle
What are the process of respiratory system
Pulmonary ventilation
alveolar gas exchange
Perfusion
systemic diffusion
Does the movement of air into and out of the lungs
Ventilation
There are two phases of pulmonary ventilation
Inspiration and expiration
This reflex clear airway open and clear
Coughing reflex
It is excessive mucus production
Pneumonia
What parts of the brain control breathing
Medulla and pons
What are the drugs affecting the respiratory system
Antihistamines
antitussives
drugs for COPD
decongestants
expectorants
It is the pressure in the plural cavity surrounding the lungs it creates suction that holds the visceral pleura and parietal pleura ra together as just expands in contact
Intrapleural pressure
It acts as adhesive in lubricant aids with ease of filling and emptying of lungs
Pleural fluid
It is the abnormal accumulation of fluid in the plural space resulting from excess fluid production or decreased absorption
Plural effusion
It is the volume of air moved into or out of the lungs in one breathe
Tidal volume
How many ml of air is inspired and expired for adults
500
It is the expandability or stretchability of lungs tissue
Lung compliance
Lipoprotein produced by specialized alveolar cell act like detergent reducing the surface tension of alveolar fluid
Surfactant
Without surfactant what will happen with the lungs
Long collapse
It is the diffusion of O2 and CO2 between the Avila and pulmonary capillaries
Alveolar gas exchange
Pressure resulting from any gas in the mixture depending on its concentration
Partial pressure
It has greater solubility and diffuses more quickly allowing it to be exhaled during each expiratory phase
CO2
Gas exchange oxygen moves from the lungs to the bloodstream at the same time carbon dioxide passes from the blood to the lungs
Perfusion
Is the process of transporting nutrients to the cells and surrounding tissue
Perfusion
What system is the pump that does the transportation of of blood
Cardiovascular system
It is the amount of blood your heart pumps each minute
Cardiac output
