Q

Active breathing

25
Muscles of inspiration
26
Muscles of expiration
27
What is the respiratory rate for an average adult?
12-18 breaths per min
28
Quadrants of the right lung
Superior, middle, inferior
29
Quadrants of the left lung
Superior, inferior
30
Inspiration& diaphragm
Diaphragm contracts (goes down)
31
Expiration & diaphragm
Diaphragm relaxes (goes up)
32
Pleural lining
The thin lining surrounding the lungs that is meant for protection and connection
33
Thorax
Area of the body between the neck and abdomen
34
What muscle is the diaphragm made of?
Internal skeletal muscle
35
Where is the diaphragm and what does it separate?
It extends across the bottom of the thoracic cavity. It separates the thoracic cavity from the abdominal cavity
36
How many holes are in the diaphragm?
3
37
What are the names of the holes in the diaphragm?
Vena cava, esophagus, aorta
38
What do the abdominal and back muscles aid us in?
Breathing under high demand
39
Asthma
A chronic condition characterized by the construction of bronchioles often in reaction to a trigger
40
Bronchitis
Inflammation of the lining of the bronchioles
41
Emphysema
Deterioration of the alveoli, causing lungs to lose their elasticity
42
Pneumonia
Condition in which the alveoli become filled with fluid, preventing the exchange of gases
43
Lung cancer
irregular and uncontrolled growth of tumors in the lung tissue
44
Cystic fibrosis
A genetic defect that causes excessive mucus production that clogs the airways
45
TB
A bacterial infection of the lung
46
Black lung
Man-made occupational lung diseases that are contracted by prolonged breathing of coal mine dust
47
COPD
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease- a group of diseases that cause airflow blockage and breathing related problems (emphysema and chronic bronchitis)
48
BPD
Bronco-pulmonary Dysplasia- chronic lung disease in infants- common with premature newborns who need lung support (the branches of the lungs are putting strain on the heart)
49
Laryngitis
Small fibers and particles deposited into the nose, pharynx, and larynx absorbed by the upper respiratory tract resulting in swelling (edema) of the voice box
50
Interstitial Disease
Small fibers and particles deposited into the terminal bronchioles (in the lungs)
51
Respiratory therapist
Provides inhalation treatments, ventilation, oxygenation, all things lung health
52
How do the respiratory therapist and SLP work together?
Together they facilitate adequate ventilation or oxygenation and establish a route for verbal communication (we need the respiratory system to be okay before we can work on it as an SLP)
53
Successful collaboration on breathing and swallowing
SLP's and respiratory therapists work together to help patients with conditions such as pneumonia and tracheostomies because if our lungs are no okay they will forget about eating and speaking
54
What experience does the RT have and what does the SLP have?
RT: cardiopulmonary & SLP: neurological
55
What produces speech?
The lungs expelling air (air flow)
56
What determines the power of the vocal sounds?
The contractions of the diaphragm
57
Conditions with poor breath support to sustain speech
Hypotonic Cerebral palsy, ALS, Dysarthria
58
What do adults with COPD, asthma, bronchitis, and emphysema often develop?
Speech and swallowing disorders
