define tidal volume
residual volume
Tidal volume = volume of a normal breath cycle, 500ml
Residual volume = air in lungs after max expiration, 1.2L
define insp reserve vol
Amount of air a person can inhale forcefully after normal tidal volume inspiration
define functional residual capacity
air present after passive expiration
define anatomical dead space
air in conducting zone
DEFINE FEV1 AND FVC
FEV 1Forced expiratory volume in one second
FVC = Maximum total exhaled volume in one breath
Airway obstruction
FEV is lower than FVC
fev < 80%
Ratio is reduced
airway restriction
both fev1 and fvc reduced equally
ratio normal
Parietal cells release ?
HCL- digestion, cleaves pepsinogen
Intrinsic factor - aids in b12 absorption
ECK cells release
histamine - stimulate hcl secretion
muscus cell role in stomach
lubrication, protection of mucosa
what increases gastric peristaltic waves
gastrin release
what is primary prevention
to prevent the disease from occurring such as vaccines, altering risky behaviour
what is secondary prevention
screening to identify diseases in the earliest stages before the onset of signs and symptoms
mammograms and blood pressure test
what is tertiary prevention
managing disease post diagnosis to slow or stop progression of disease
differences between small and large intestine
small- smaller, no appendices , smooth wall
large- larger, longitudinal muscle is not continuos
sacculated
