Airway Resistance
Give this one a try later!
Ability for air to travel
,Pulmonary System Abnormalities altering gas exchange.

Structural Abnormalities:
↓ Movement - Broken Ribs
↓ Inflation - Pneumothorax
↑ Fluid - Blood/Lymph/Pus
Airway Inflammation/Obstruction:
- Allergic Reaction
- Food/Object Obstruction
Alveoli-Capillary Disorder:
- Stiff Alveoli = ↓ Gas Exchange
- Pulmonary Edema/Fibrosis
Atelectasis:
Alveolar Collapse
Drugs Types to treat Respiratory Disease

Eupnea: Normal
Tachypnea: Fast/Shallow, >24min
Bradypnea: Slow, <10/min
Apnea: Absence
Kussmal: ↑rate, ↑depth
Biot's: shallow w/ periods of apnea
Cheyne-Stokes: Irregular alternating rapid/shallow
respiration followed by slower respiration or apnea
Hypoventilation

Not enough O2. Hypoxemia --> Hypoxia (O2 Deficiency)
Hypoxemia (Low O2/High CO2) Triggers Respiration
What can increase airway resistance?
