Part 2 Flashcards

1
Q

The central nervous system control what

How do the CNS do that

What did the Vegas nerve supply

A

Involuntary involuntary respiration

Through pons in the medulla

Q

What happens to CO2 level in the cerebrospinal spinal fluid becomes too high or the PH drops

A

The central receptors in the brain stem signals the nerve to initiate faster respiratory to “blow off ” excess CO2

Q

When arterial blood oxygen level are below normal what happens to the respiratory center in the aorta in the carotid artery’s What do they signal

A

Signals the nerves nerves to cause the lung 🫁 to inflate more fully making the person breathe 🧘‍♀️ more deeply and faster

Q

When CO2 levels are constantly high What does the body do

What does research so when you give a COPD patient more oxygen what changes in their body

A

The body becomes a custom to high CO2 levels in the respiratory drives is triggered by receptors for low arterial O2 instead of high levels of CO2

Vascular, ventilation, and perfusion changes

16
Q

When the diaphragm contracts what happens

A

It moves downward

The other chest muscle contracts pulling the rib cage up ⬆️ and out expanding the lungs 🫁 and creating an area of negative pressure

17
Q

What happens when the diaphragm relaxes

A

The rib cage move back to its normal position

  • the lungs 🫁 return to resting position
  • causing air to be possibly push out an explanation
18
Q

If damage to the spinal cord occurs above the level where the PHRENIC nerve branches off to control the diaphragm what happens

A

Voluntary respiration ceases

19
Q

If the muscles of the diaphragm and chest (intercostal) Are paralyze what occurs

A

Apnea- absence of breathing

20
Q

The thoracic cage is composed of what

What is the function of the thoracic cage

A

Thoracic vertebrae
the sternum
And the rib

Let’s respiratory muscles function correctly

21
Q

If any bones of the thorax or chest wall or injured or fractured what does it affect

A

Breathing

22
Q

Elasticity of the lungs or how easily the lungs inflate ?

What happens when it decreases?

How do COPD and aging altar this?

A

Compliance

The lungs are more difficult to inflate

Artist compliance because of damage in the Alveoli

23
Q

Weakness of the respiratory muscles, such as occurs with neuromuscular diseases, can also cause what

A

decrease respiratory ability

24
Q

Inwards curvature in collapse

A

Kyphosis

25
Q

Kyphosis of the spine constrictor thoracic Cavity and restricts the cavity at the lung To do what

A

Expand fully

26
Q

Are tiny sac covered with permeable membrane that come into contact with the pulmonary arterioles and Venules

A

Alveoli 🍇

27
Q

Oxygen passes into the ____and CO2 passes from the _____ into the

A

Arterial blood 🩸

Venous blood 🩸

Alveoli 🍇for exhalation 🥱😮‍💨

28
Q

Secreted by cell in the alveoli 🍇

What did it decrease and why?

What does it facilitates

And what does it prevent

And when it to low

A

Surfactant

It decreases surface tension on the Aleveolare wall
(Why) so that diffusion of oxygen and carbon dioxide can take place

  1. alveoli 🍇 cannot properly expand
  2. O2 and carbon dioxide cannot cross the membrane adequately
29
Q

When interstitial Edema occurs in the long what happens to though alveolar membrane

And what happens if the fluid filled the alveoli

A

The alveolar membrane it’s thickened and gases ⛽️ cannot diffuse across the membrane easily

Gases cannot this diffuse across the membrane

30
Q

Edema in the lungs occurs with

A

Infection like- pneumonia

Disorders like- congestive heart failure

31
Q

What percentage attaches to the heme portion of the hemoglobin molecule carried and erythrocytes and forms oxyhemoglobin

A

97%

32
Q

The plasma also transports a portion of each gas

And that percentage it dissolved where

A

3% oxygen is dissolved in the plasma

33
Q

Cellular waste product

A

CO2

34
Q

CO2 cellular waste product combines with water forming what

A

Carbonic acid

35
Q

After of the cellular waste product combines with water formingcarbonic acid what happens next

So after____Is formed it makes what

A

Disassociation. Uncombining

Hydrogen ions and bicarbonate ions

36
Q

What % is transported in the blood 🩸 as bicarbonate ion

A

77% of CO2

37
Q

What % combine w/ hemoglobin and is carried to lung 🫁

A

23%

38
Q

Inside the lung 🫁 process reverse 🔄 so

What happened with the CO2 and
it is exhaled 😮‍💨🥱 or inhaled

A

The bicarbonate ions combine w hydrogen to make carbonic acid which then ➡️dissociate into water 💦 and CO2

The CO2 diffuses across alveolar membrane and is exhaled

39
Q

The movement of air from the external environment to the gas exchange unit of the lung and back to the environment

Done mechanical ventilator

(MOVEMENT OF GASES INTO AND OUT OF THE LUNG 🫁 )

A

Ventilation

40
Q

How is the the lung to acquire oxygen measured

A

By pulse oximetry

41
Q

The amount of CO2 present in exhaled breath

What are the other names for it

A

End-tidal CO2.

Etco2 or Carpnogtaphy
