resp lec 2 Flashcards
what are principle/primary vs accessory muscles used for?
- principle/primary: passive inspiration
- accessory: active inspiration
for inspiration to occur, the lungs must expand. This ____ the lung volume, ____ the pressure in the lungs relative to the atmospheric pressure.
increases, decreases
what is the principle muscle of inspiration? which two muscles assist?
- principle: diaphragm
- assist: external intercostals and interchondral internal intercostals
3 parts of diaphragm?
- sternal (xiphoid process)
- costal (ribs)
- lumbar (vertebrae)
where does the diaphragm insert?
central tendon
what innervates the diaphragm?
phrenic nerves (C3-C5)
what does the diaphragm separate?
thoracic and abdominal cavity
Contraction of the diaphragm pulls central tendon ___ward, resulting in expansion of the thorax leading to ____.
down
inhalation
where are the external intercostals located? how many on each side? where do they originate and insert? what is their innervation?
- between ribs
- 11
- origin: inferior superior rib, insert: superior inferior rib
- innervation: intercostal nerves (T1-T11)
are the external intercostals superficial or deep?
superficial
what is the action of the external intercostals? what does it result in?
- expands ribs in transverse direction/superiorly and sternum anteriorly
- inhalation
where do the interchondral part of the internal intercostals originate and insert? what is the innervation?
- origin: inferior ribs
- insert: superior cartilaginous part of rib below
- innervation: T1-T11
what is the action of the interchondral part of the internal intercostals? what does this do to the chest wall?
- lifts ribs (inhalation)
- chest wall stiffens
which muscles are active during forced inhalation? (6)
- pec major
- pec minor
- serratus
- sternocleidomastoid
- quadratus lumborum

- ribs and lumbar vertebrae
- stabilizes lower ribs
origin, insertion, action of: scalene muscles

what group of muscles is used less than what is typical during clavicular breathing?
