Unit 3 Exam Lab 11 Flashcards
Total Lung Capacity formula
TLC=IRV+ERV+TV+RV
Vital Capacity formula
VC=IRV+ERV+TV
Functional Residual Capacity formula
FRC=ERV+RV
Inspiratory Capacity formula
IC=IRV+TV
Tidal volume
Amount of air inhaled per breath during normal breathing
Inspiratory reserve volume
Amount of air that can be inspired above and beyond that can be inhaled during normal breathing
Expiratory reserve volume
Maximal amount of air that can be expired following normal breathing
Residual volume
Amount of air left in the lungs after a maximal expired effort
FEV1 and FEV3 normal values
FEV1: 75-85%
FEV3: >97%
Female and male normal values
Female: 4.6 liters
Male: 6.0 liters
Tidal volume at rest
0.5 liters
What is BTPS
Body temperature, ambient pressure, saturated gas
The composition of room air:
20.93% O2, 0.04% CO2, and 79% N2
Ventilation formula
Ventilation=TVxBR
Respiratory control system stimulus
Change in blood levels of CO2 and O2
Respiratory control system receptors
Chemoreceptors
Respiratory control system afferent pathway
Sensory neurons from chemoreceptors
Respiratory control system integrator
Respiratory center in the medulla
Respiratory control system Somatic Efferent Pathway
Neurons to diaphragm and intercostal muscles
Respiratory control system Autonomic Efferent Pathway
Sympathetic and parasympathetic to bronchiole smooth muscle
Respiratory control system effectors
Bronchiole smooth muscle, diaphragm, intercostal muscles
Respiratory control system response
Change in ventilation/breath rate to bring CO2 and O2 levels back to steady states
What effects does hyperventilation have on O2 and CO2 blood levels?
No change in blood O2 levels
Decrease in blood CO2 levels
What is the effect of hypocapnia on ventilation?
decreases
