| THE BODY MUST GENERATE MORE NEGATIVE INTRPLEURAL PRESSURES DURING INSPIRATION THAN WE WOULD EXPECT DUE TO WHAT? |
|
Definition
| OVERCOME THE RESISTANCE TO AIRFLOW |
|
|
Term
| DURING THE FIRST PART OF INSPIRATION IS THERE TURBULENT OR LAMINAR AIRFLOW? |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
| THE SECOND PART OF INSPIRATION IS THERE TURBULENT OR LAMINAR FLOW? |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
| DURING INSPIRATION WHEN IS THERE THE MOST AIRWAY RESISTANCE? |
|
Definition
| IN THE MIDDLE OF INSPIRATION. DIFFERENCE GETS BIGGER, BUT ONCE AIR IS MOVING, IT DOESN;T TAKE THE SAME AMOUNT OF FORCE TO CONTINUE TO KEEP IT MOVING. |
|
|
Term
| DURING EXPIRATION DO WE HAVE TO GENERATE A HIGHER, LESS NEGATIVE, INTRAPLEURAL PRESSURE TO PUSH AIR OUT? |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
| NEGATIVE PRESSURE CNA ACTUALLY FALL ALL THE WAY DOWN TO -50 OR -60CMH20. HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE? |
|
Definition
| BY INHALING AGAINST RESISTANCE. |
|
|
Term
| IF YOU HAVE A PNEUMOTHORAX WHAT HAPPENS TO THE CLOSED SYSTEM? |
|
Definition
| IT IS NO LONGER A CLOSED SYSTEM. AS VOLUME INCREASES, THE PRESSURE REMAINS THE SAME. |
|
|
Term
| WHAT HAPPENS OF INTRAPLEURAL PRESSURE EQUALS ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE? |
|
Definition
| THE VOLUMES AND PRESSURES WILL BE ZERO |
|
|
Term
| WHAT IS THE DIFFERENT BETWEEN VOLUME AND CAPACTITIES? |
|
Definition
| A CAPACITY IS THE SUM OF 2 OR MORE VOLUMES. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| AMOUNT OF AIR BROUGHT INTO AND EXHALED FROM THE LUNGS IN ONE EUPNEIC BREATH. ABOUT 500ML |
|
|
Term
| WHAT IS INSPIRATORY RESERVE VOLUME (IRV)? |
|
Definition
| AMOUNT OF AIR THAT CAN BE BROUGHT INTO THE LUNG FOLLOWING A EUPNEIC INSPIRATION. |
|
|
Term
| WHAT IS EXPIRATORY RESERVE VOLUME (ERV)? |
|
Definition
| AMOUNT OF AIR THAT CAN BE EXHALED FROM THE LUNGS FOLLOWING A NORMAL EUPNEIC EXPIRATION. |
|
|
Term
| WHAT IS THE FORMULA FOR RESIDUAL VOLUME (RV)? |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| AMOUNT OF AIR THAT ALWAYS REMAINS IN LUNGS. CANNOT BE EXHALED NO MATTER HOW HARD YOU TRY. |
|
|
Term
| WHAT IS INSPIRATORY CAPACITY? |
|
Definition
| AMOUNT OF AIR THAT WE CAN FOREFULLY INSPIRE |
|
|
Term
| WHAT IS THE FORMULA FOR IC? |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
| WHAT IS THE FORMULA FOR FRC? |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| AMOUNT OF AIR THAT CAN BE FORCEFULL INHALED AND EXHALED FROM THE LUNGS. |
|
|
Term
| WHAT ARE 2 FORMULAS FOR VITAL CAPACITY? |
|
Definition
| VC= IRV + TV + ERV OR IC + ERV |
|
|
Term
| WHAT ARE THE 2 FORMULAS FOR TOTAL LUNG CAPACITY? |
|
Definition
| TLC = TLC=VC + RV OR TLC= IC + FRC |
|
|
Term
| WHAT THREE MEASUREMENTS ARE WE UNABLE TO MEASURE? |
|
Definition
| ANY VOLUME OR CAPACITY THAT HAS THE COMPONENT OF RESIDUAL VOLUME IN IT, CANNOT BE MEASURED BY SPIROMETRY. SPIROMETRY ONLY MEASURES WHAT CAN BE INHLAED AND EXHALED. UNABLE TO MREASURE RV, FRC, AND TLC. |
|
|
Term
| WHAT TYPE OF METHOD DO WE MEASURE IN THE LUNGS OF WHAT WE CAN'T MEASURE WITH SPIROMETRY. |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
| IF THE PATIENT INHALES MAXIMALLY, WE CLOSE THE ATM CIRCUIT AND OPEN THE HE. CIRCUIT. WILL THE HE DILUTE TLC? |
