32
Q

What is the relation of carina to ascending and descending aorta

A

carina (split of right and left bronchus) is posterior to ascending aorta and anteromedial to descending aorta

33
Q

Which side does aspirations tend to occur more and why

A

right side because mainstem bronchus is more wide,shorter, and more vertical than the left

34
Q

where do things aspirate when you’re supine vs standing

A

supine - upper right lobe, posterior

standing - basal segment of right lower lobe (preferentially)

35
Q

What does RALS mean

A

refers to relation of pulmonary artery to bronchus
in right lung, pulmonary artery is right of bronchus
in left lung, pulmary artery is superior to bronchus

36
Q

where does the trachea bifurcate

A

T4

42
Q

where can pain from diaphragm radiate

A

shoulder (C5) and trapezius ridge (C 3,4)

43
Q

lung volume that can’t be measured by spirometry

A

any measurement that includes RESIDUAL VOLUME

44
Q

air that can be inhaled after normal exhalation

A

inspiratory capacity

45
Q

air that can still be breathed in after normal inspiration

A

inspiratory reserve volume

46
Q

air that can be breathed out after normal expieration

A

expiratory reserve volume

47
Q

how to calculate inspiratory capacity

A

IRV + TV

48
Q

how to calculate vital capacity

A

TV + IRV + ERV….volume of air that can be exhaled after MAXIMAL respiration

49
Q

how to calculate volume of physiologic dead space

A
(Taco) x (Peco - Paco)/Paco
Vt X ([Peco-Paco)/Paco)
50
Q

How to calculate FRC (functional residual capacity(

A

volume of air left in lungs after normal expiration

51
Q

chest tube placement at 5th intercostal space at mid axilarry line pierces what muscle

A

serratus anterior

52
Q

how do high altitudes affect blood pH, PaO2, PaCO2, and plasma HCO3 when you’re there for more than 2 days

A

high altitude = less PaO2 = trigger hyperventilation = less PaCO2 (respiratory alkalosis) = 2 days later compensation for respiratory alk by lowering HCO3

53
Q

normal pO2 room air/trachea
normal pO2 expiratory in alveoli
normal pCO2 expiratory in alveoli

A

breathed in air has pO2 160 which will decrease to arteries during expiration will increase PVR due to less radial 150 mmhg in trachea…as it gets to alveoli it will equilibrate to about 104 mmhg…meanwhile blood being brought into alveoli for gas exchange will bring about pCO2 of 40 mmhg

if there is a perfusion defect, PE for example, tracheal pO2 and alveolar pO2 would equilibrate at 145 and pCO2 would be low

54
Q

when is PVR the lowest

A

fucntional residual capacity (volume after normal expiration)
at max inspiration and max expiration, high lung volumes will stretch due to expanding alveoli and extra alveolar

55
Q

how does interstitial lung disease affect lung volume, elastic recoil, and radial traction on airways

A

decreases lung volume due to fibrosis
fibrotic tissue will increase elastic recoil because fibrotic tissue will have INCREASED radial traction on airways
this will decrease FVC which will increase FEV1/FVC ratio

56
Q

patient prior hx of TB that was treated in the past develops hemoptysis with no fevers night sweats or weight loss…imaging shows old cavities filled with new round mass

A

aspergillus colonization

57
Q

what nerve to stimulate in OSA with loud snoring/gasping rspirations

A

hypoglossal….this will move tongue forards and increase anteroposterior diameter of airway reducing number of apneic events by holding airway open

58
Q

SOB with normal PaO2, nml Sa02, lowered O2 conent

A

anemia

59
Q

nml PaO2, nml Sa02 and increased O2 content

A

polycythemiaa

60
Q

decreased PaO2, decreased Sao2, decreased O2 content

A

high altitiude

61
Q

SOB with nml PaO2, SaO2, and oxygen content

A

cyanide poising

62
Q

major virulence factor causing epiglottitis in Hflu

A
polysaccaride capsule (PRP, polyribosylribitol phosphate)
Hib vaccine is composed of PRP conjugated to tetanus toxoid)
63
Q

piriform recess in larynx houses what nerve

A
internal laryngeal nerve (branch of superior laryngeal nerve CNX)....carries only sensory fibers
if damged (i.e. foreign body)...lose cough reflex
64
Q

which cardiac anomaly is associated with increased risk of circle of willis abnormalities, intracerebral hemorrhage, and AVMs?

A

coarctation of aorta

65
Q

what pattern of breathing is favored (decreased work o fbreathing) for diseases with increased elastic resistance vs obstructive disease

A

elastic resistance - quick shallow breaths, work o fbreathing goes down as RR goes up
obstructive - deep long breaths…work of breath goes up the faster you breathe

66
Q

how long do you have to be vegetarian to become vitb12 deficiency and get anemia

A

years!!!!!!!!!!!!

if you get a lil hoe who’s only been vegetarian for a few months, she mostly likely got IDA from her period yo

67
