Resp II Flashcards
V/Q
apex zone 1 - high V/Q
zone 2 - Pa greater than PA greater than Pv
base zone 3 - low V/Q
both ventilation and perfusion greater at base of lung than apex
exercise and V/Q
apical vasodilation - decreased V/Q
ideal V/Q
1
apex = 3 base = 0.6
TB infection
thrive high O2
apex of lung
V/Q = 0
shunt - airway obstruction
V/Q = infinite
blood flow obstruction
CO2 transport in blood
HCO3 - 90%
carbamino Hb - HbCO2 - 5%
-bound to Hb at N terminus of globin - favor taut
dissolved CO2 - 5%
CO2 bound to Hb
to N terminus of globin
favor taut
-O2 unloading
lung CO2 and O2
in lung
- O2 of Hb - prevent dissociation H+ from Hb
- equilbrium shift to CO2 formation
- CO2 released in lungs
haldane effect
bohr effect
peripheral tissue
-elevated H+ - shift curve right - unload O2
chloride shift
into RBC
exchange for HCO3
high Cl in RBC in venous blood
high altitude
low PaO2 - ventilation - low PaCO2
-resp alkalosis
increased EPO production
increased 2,3 BPG production - Hb release more O2
acetazolamide - augment bicarb excretion from kidney
chronic hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction - right ventricle hypertrophy
rhinosinusitis
MCC - viral URI
may lead to secondary bacterial infection
-strep pneumo, h. flu, m. catarrhalis
epistaxis
nose vleed
anterior nostril - kiesselbach plexus
life-threatening - posterior segment - sphenopalatine a - branch of maxillary artery
DVT
virchow triad
- stasis
- hypercoag
- endo injury
