Test 2 pulmonary Flashcards
where is a tracheotomy performed
between the 2nd and 3rd or
3rd and 4th ring
emergency airway
cricoidotomy
where is a caricoidotomy preformed
between thyroid and cricoid cartilages
traumatic or prolonged intubation or bronchoscope can lead to what
laryngospasm and or laryngeal edema
the ETT cuff can cause what
erosion and ulceration of the tracheal mucosa
if something is aspirated it is more likely to go down what side of the carina
the right side
muscles used for inspiratory breathing
diaphragm and external intercostals
inspiratory accessory muscles used for breathing
sternocleidomastoid and scalene
expiratory accessory muscles used for breathing
abdominal and internal intercostals
tendency of lungs to return to resting state
elastic recoil
distensibility of lung and chest wall
compliance
diseases that have decreased compliance
atelectasis pneumonia ARDS fibrosis pulmonary edema
disease that have increased compliance
Emphysema
pulmonary emboli
o2 and energy requirement for ventilation
Work of breathing
change in pressure by rate of flow
airway resistance
increased WOB can lead to what
respiratory muscle fatigue
ventilation that reaches alveoli adequate for metabolic demands
alveolar ventilation
defined by high PaCO2
hypercapnia
hypoventilation
defined by low PaCO2
hypocapnia
hyperventilation
a decrease in Va causes PaCO2 to
increase
a increase in Va cause PaCO2 to
decrease
side effects of increased PaCO2
altered mentation/level of consciousness
secondary hypoxemia
side effects of decreased PaCO2
lightheadedness
when hemoglobin molecules bind with oxygen
oxyhemoglobin is formed
oxyhemoglobin is formed in the lungs and is called
oxyhemoglobin association
hemoglobin saturation with oxygen
the process in which oxygen released from hemoglobin, occurs in the body tissue at the cellular level and is called
hemoglobin desaturation
hemoglobins decreased affinity for oxgen or an increase in the ease which which oxyhemoglobin dissociates and oxygen moves into the cells
right shift
hemoglobins increased affinity for oxygen which promotes association in the lungs and inhibits dissociation in the tissues
left shift
which shift is related to acute alkalosis (increased pH)
left shift
increased affinity
