27
Q

when the diaphram contracts it __________interthoracic pressure-which in turn __________ the volume of the lungs. a vaccum is thus created causing air to ______ the lungs. this is called______

A

Decreases
increases
enter
inspiration

28
Q

relaxation of the diaphragm _______interthoracic pressure. this is how air is _________from the lungs. this is normal exhalation.

A

increases
expelled

29
Q

Normal inspiration

A

-Diaphragm contracts
-interthoracic pressure decreases
-creates a vaccum
air enters the lungs

30
Q

Normal exhalation

A

-diaphragm relaxes
-interthoracic pressure increases
-air is expelled from the lungs

31
Q

paradoxical breathing

A

-occurs with elevation and expansion of the rib cage

32
Q

in paradoxical breathing the abdomen _________ protrude.

A

does not

33
Q

paradoxical breathing is most likely done/created for _________reasons

A

aesthetic

34
Q

paradoxical breathing may indicate__________

A

pulmonary disorder like asthma or pulmonary distress.

35
Q

pulmonary disorders may present with

A

parasthesia of the diaphram

36
Q

Paradoxical breathing is

A

FORCED

37
Q

paradoxical breathing will
over work the

A

scalene and intercostal muscles by increasing their contribution to the respiration process

38
Q

Muscles with an inferior insertion assist with

A

forced inhalation

39
Q

muscles with an superior insertion help with

A

forced exhalation

40
Q

At the posterior articulation, the rib ______/______ on the axis passing through the joints.
This relationship changes dependant on the shape of the thoracic vertebrae

A

Glides/pivots (roll)

46
Q

in the superior thoracic, the axis is directed more _______ thus the elevation of the ribs increases the__________ of the thoracic cage

A

lateral
anterior diameter

47
Q

in the inferior thoracic the axis is directed more _______, thus elevation of the ribs increases the ________of the thoracic cage
