3 steps in the process of ventilation, perfusion, and diffusion
oxygenation:
Is inspiration an active or passive active; stimulated by chemical receptors in the
process? aorta
Is expiration an active or passive passive; depends on the elastic recoil properties of
process? the lungs, requiring little or no muscle work
TRUE or FALSE: clubbing will not FALSE
occur in patients with asthma.
What is lung capacity based off of? Age
Gender
Height
, Where does pulmonary circulation pulmonary artery
begin?
which receives poorly oxygenated blood from the
right ventricle
What affects the rate of gas diffusion the thickness of the alveolar capillary membrane
in the lungs?
What issues cause a thicker alveolar -pulmonary edema
membrane? -pulmonary infiltrates
-pulmonary effusion
What chronic diseases alter the -emphysema
amount of alveolar capillary -pneumothorax
membrane surface? -lobectomy
TRUE or FALSE: you can never give FALSE
too much O2 to a patient with COPD
if you do so then they will not be able to properly
expel CO2
What three things influence the 1. the amount of dissolved O2 in the plasma
capacity of the blood to carry O2? 2. the amount of hemoglobin
3. the ability of the hemoglobin to bind with O2
What does the CNS regulate in terms rate, depth, and rhythm
of respiration?
What does the cerebral cortex voluntary control of respiration
regulate in terms of respiration?
