infection, fat embolism after bone marrow infarction, pulmonary infarction, and surgical
procedures

127

132
Q

Key points: neonates alveoli ______and _______

A

Fewer and smaller

133
Q

Key points: Neonates lung compliance and chest wall?

A

Fewer and smaller alveoli reduce lung compliance

CHEST WALL is very compliant

134
Q

Key points: Because there is _______in lung compliance and _______in chest wall compliance, those two things promote 2 things

A

Chest wall collapse during inspiration

Low residual volume at expiration

135
Q

Key Points : The low residual volume, FRC is __________which limit _______Reserve when there is ______ such as when there is an intubation attempt, therefore, it predisposes neonates to _________and _________

A

Lower; O2 reserve; Apnea; Atelectasis and hypoxemia

Key Points: Cardiac SV is _________ because of ______and noncompliant _______ventricle in neonates and infant.Therefore ______is very sensitive to changes in HR

A

fixed; immature ; left

138
Q

Key points: Why do pediatric are at risk for greater heat loss to environment?

Delayed awakening
Arrhythmias
Respiratory depresswion
Increased PVR.

140
Q

Neonates, infants and children have

A

GREATER ALVEOLAR VENTILATION

REDUCED FRC

141
Q
