23
Q

Parts of diaphragm,

A

Central tendon (attached to fibrous pericardium), left and right muscular domes, hiatuses and crura (L1-3/4)

24
Q

Covering of superior surface of diaphragm

A

Parietal pleura

25
Q

Attachments of diaphragm

A

26
Q

Hiatuses of diaphragm

A

IVC - T8
Oesophagus -T10
Aorta - T12

27
Q

Innervation of diaphragm

A

Phrenic nerve (C3-5) and lower intercostal nerves (sensory supply to peripheral diaphragm)

28
Q

Upper respiratory tract

A

Nasal cavity, pharynx and larynx

29
Q

Function of larynx

A

Produces sound from expired air and protects inlet to respiratory system

30
Q

Structure of larynx

A

Superiorly attached to hyoid bine and inferiorly continuous with trachea at C6. Contains epiglottis, cricoid cartilage and thyroid cartilage (laryngeal prominence)

31
Q

Innervation of larynx

A

Branches of vagus nerve

32
Q

Lower respiratory tract

A

Trachea and bronchi

33
Q

innervation of LRT

A

Motor - sympathetic fibres via pulmonary flexes and parasympathetic fibres via vagus nerve
Sensory - sympathetic and parasympathetic to spinal cord

34
Q

Arterial/venous supply of LRT

A

Bronchial arteries and veins

35
Q

Trachea

A

Runs from C6 to T4 where it bifurcates at the carina. Features 16-20 hyaline cartilage rings and completed posteriorly by trachealis muscle. Lies anterior to oesophagus. Common carotids and vagus lie lateral to trachea.

36
Q

Right bronchi

A

Superior lobar bronchus (eparterial) and main right bronchus (hyparterial)

37
Q

Lung hilum

A

Area where the root enters and leaves lung. Found on mediastinal surface.

38
Q

Root of lung.

A

Bronchus (most posterior), pulmonary artery (most superior), inferior pulmonary vein and superior pulmonary vein (most anterior) and inferior pulmonary vein (most inferior)

39
Q

Right lung

A

Contains 3 lobes (superior, middle and inferior), 2 fissures (transverse and oblique)

40
Q

Left lung

A

Contains 2 loves (superior and inferior), 1 tissue (oblique), a cardiac notch and cardiac impression and the linguila

41
Q

Linguila

A

Process of the inferior lobe of the left lung

42
Q

Base of lung

A

Bottom of lung

43
Q

Apex of lung

A

Top of lung, extends above 1st rib and clavicle. Covered by cervical pleura.

44
Q

Surfaces of the lung

A
