Pulmonary Anderson Flashcards
pneumothorax
loss of vacuum b/w pleura (visceral and parietal)…visceral adheres to lung and parietal to thoracic cage
bronchial artery
blood from aorta to lung tissues
bronchial vein
blood from lung tissues to azygos veins and some pulmonary veins
pulmonary artery
deoxygenated blood from right ventricle to alveoli
pulmonary vein
oxygenated blood from alveoli to left atrium
what CN parasympathetically constricts bronchioles
CN 10
what nerve has sensory of lung
CN 10
what dilates the lungs
sympathetic chain ganglia
anterior mediastinum contains
thymus
middle mediastinum contains
heart, pericardium
superior mediastinum contains
aortic arch, brachiocephalic veins
posterior mediastinum contains
esophagus, descending aorta, azygos veins, thoracic duct, sympathetic trunk
how do sinuses drain
sphenoid to ethmoid to maxillary to nasal cavity…frontal drains to maxillary to nasal cavity
CN innervation of larynx for vocalization
CN 10
tidal volume
volume inspired or expired with each normal breath
inspiratory reserve volume
volume that can be inspired over and above the tidal volume, used during exercise
expiratory reserve volume
volume that can be expired after the expiration of a tidal volume
residual volume
volume that remains in the lungs after a maximal expiration
anatomic dead space
volume of conducting airways, normally 150 ml
physiological dead space
functional measurement, defined as volume of the lungs that does not participate in gas exchange, approximately equal to anatomic dead space in normal lungs
inspiratory capacity
sum of tidal volume and IRV
functional residual capacity
sum of ERV and residual volume, volume remaining in the lungs after a tidal volume is expired, includes residual so it cannot be measured by spirometry
vital capacity
sum of the tidal volume plus IRV and ERV, volume that is expired after after a maximal inspiration
forced vital capacity
volume of air that can be forcibly expired after a maximal inspiration
