Q

Newton’s First Law of Motion

A

An object at rest or moving at constant speed in a straight line will continue in that state until a net external force acts upon it. This is the law of inertia.

Q

Newton’s Second Law of Motion

A

-Force is equal to mass times acceleration
F=m x a
-If multiple forces exist, the direction and acceleration are proportional to the sum of all the forces. These are called VECTORS.

Q

How does gravity affect the blood flow in lungs?

A

In standing position, distribution of pulmonary blood flow is UNeven due to gravity. lowest at apex and highest at the base of lung (will get more blood and oxygen )
-Supine blood flow is nearly uniform throughout the lung

26
Q

Weight equals

A

m X g

m=mass
g= acceleration due to gravity

27
Q

SI unit of mass is

A

kg

28
Q

1 slug= ______kg

A

=14.62 kg

29
Q

1 lb= ____ N

A

4.45 N

30
Q

pressure=

A

force/area

measured in pascal

31
Q

pressure is

A

force per unit area

32
Q

Bourdon gauges

A

measure pressure in gas cylinders
P total =P gauge + P atmosphere

used in anesthesia to measure pressure in gas cylinders

33
Q

True zero pressure

A

Zero reference point may be a complete vaccum

34
Q

Zero alveolar pressure means

A

at atmospheric pressure

35
Q

Manometer is

A

u shaped tube filled with fluid of known density, such as mercury. Remember what mercury density was? :)

36
Q

Calculate the pressure difference between the system and the atmosphere by measuring

A

height distance of the fluid in the U-shaped tube and substituting for the equation:

change in P=pg times change in h

37
Q

Aneroid bellows gauge

A

-does not require presence of a liquid to operate
-relies on the expansion or contraction of bellows as the pressure changes
-gauges sealed with respect to the atmosphere are used to measure changes in the absolute pressure
-gauges open to the atmosphere and sample are used to measure gauge pressure

38
Q

Bourdon Gauge

A
  1. Used on gas cylinders and are considered a type of aneroid gauge.
  2. Has a coiled tube and is used to measure the pressure difference between the pressure exerted by the gas in a cylinder and the atmospheric pressure.
  3. As gas at a pressure above atmospheric pressure enters the coiled tube, the tube slightly uncoils,
39
Q

PSI=

A

pounds per square inch

40
Q

Atmospheric pressure is

A

pressure that is “zero” referenced against a perfect vacuum, so it equals the gauge pressure plus the atmospheric pressure

41
Q

Gauge pressure

A

pressure that is “zero” referenced against ambient air pressure
-equal to absolute pressure minus atmospheric pressure

42
Q

Gauge pressure and total pressure

A
  1. vital that you specify what type of pressure is being utilized and how that pressure was determined
  2. Total pressure (absolute pressure) includes the atmospheric pressure plus the gauge pressure: P total(absolute) = P gauge + P atmosphere
43
Q

Oscillometry

A

method that relies on the measurement of blood pressure oscillations

44
Q
