40
Q

Neurovascular bundle in placed where in comparison to the ribs

A

inferiorly (in costal groove)

41
Q

Expand thoracic cavity for

A

inspiration

42
Q

internal intercostals pulls ribs inward to help with

A

expiration

43
Q

Diaphragm originates at _______ around rib ______ inner surface

A

xiphoid
7-12

44
Q

Diaphragm inserts at

A

L1-L3

45
Q

What nerve innervates the Diaphragm

A

Phrenic nerve

46
Q

Diaphragm is a _____ shape muscle, when its contracted (expanding) it

A

dome
flattens

47
Q

Diaphragm is important for

A

physical exertion and speech/singing

48
Q

Right side of the costophrenic angle is naturally higher because of the

A

liver

49
Q

blunted costophrenic angle =

A

fluid

50
Q

Pleural layers of the lung

A

visceral pleura
interpleural space
parietal pleura

51
Q

Inhalation diaphragm

A

contracts, moves down

52
Q

Exhalation diaphragm

A

relaxes, moves up

53
Q

Intra alveoli pressure =

A

0 mmHg

54
Q

Barometric pressure =

A

0 mmHg

55
Q

Intrapleural pressure =

A

-4 - -10 mmHg

56
Q

increasing intrathoracic pressure will _______ intrathoracic volume

A

decrease

57
Q

Thoracic volume ________ as the diaphragm flattens, external intercostals pull ribs ______ and _____

A

increases
up and out

58
Q

the net negative will cause air to be pulled _____ to the alveoli to equal out the pressure

A

in

59
Q

as volume increases, intra-alveolar pressure will

A

decrease (which gives net negative compared to barometric pressure)

60
Q

During expiration inspiratory muscles are ______ and ______ of lung and chest wall

A

relaxed
recoil

61
Q

As chest wall expands and lung/alveoli expands pressure will decrease causing air to

A

come in

62
Q

Alveoli is a

A

gas exchanging unit

63
Q

pores of kohn allow for

A

passage of air between the alveoli to share to air

64
Q

Two types of cell types in the alveoli

A

type 1 - squamous cells, provides structure
type 2 - secretes surfactant

65
Q

what is surfactant

A

lipoprotein that coats the inner lining of the alveoli to prevent them from collapsing on themselves

66
Q

who doesn’t have surfactant

A

premies

67
Q

What immune cell is in the alveoli?

A

alveolar macrophages

68
Q

When alveoli are damaged there’s a

A

decrease in surfactant (closes alveoli) and they are restructured (inflammation and scar tissue)
