QUIZ Flashcards
is a gradual and progressive process and at birth the lngs have only reached the basic functioning to support extrauterine life.
Fetal Lung developmemt
the alveoli develop in increasing number until what age?
8 years
a full term infant has estimated how many alveoli?
50 million alveoli to 250 million
Day 26-52
embryonal(trachea,major bronchi)
day 52 to week 16
pseudoglandular(remaining conducting airway
week 17- week 26
canalicular( vascular bed, framework of respiratory acini
week 26- week 36
saccular( increased complexity of saccules
week 36 to term
alveolar
includes primitive lng development and is generally regarded to encompass the first 2 months of gestation
embryonal phase
lung begins to emerge as a bud from the pharynx
26 days after conception
left and right pulmonary artery and veins start to develop
week 5
during the embryonal phase, the respiratory epithelium develops from an area of the endoderm reffered as
foregut bud
this also develops during embryonal stage of lung development
diaphragm
complete development of the diaphragm
week 7 of gestation
the respiratory epithelium begins to grow during?
embryonic phase(day 1 - 26)
the lobar bronchi form two branching from the left bud and three from the right.
31 days
this will develop into the pulmonary interstitium, smooth muscle , blood vessels and cartilage
mesenchyme
when will the diaphragm form from five different elements within mesoderm
starting 31 days and ending about 7 weeks
failure of the diaphragm to completely close during this phas results in
congenital diaphragmatic hernia occuring in 2000 to 4000 births
this sis named after the distinct glandular appearance of the developing lung
Pseudoglandular phase
pseudoglandular phase extends to week?
16 of gestationstation
the most distal structure
terminal bronchioles
this wee the airway has branched to about 4 generations
week 7
