Q

What is the result of increased PNS stimulation of the lungs?

A

1) Bronchoconstriction

2) Increased secretions

2
Q

What nerve is responsible for the vast majority of PNS stimulation of the lungs?

A

CN X (vagus)

3
Q

What is the result of SNS input to the lungs?

A

Bronchial dilation

4
Q

What is the result of increased SNS tone on secretions?

A

Thickening of secretions

5
Q

What spinal levels are associated with SNS input to the lungs?

A

T1-T6

6
Q

What is the difference between breathing and respiration?

A
Breathing= ventilation 
Respiration= gas exchange
7
Q

How can the shoulder be used to aid in breathing?

A

Bracing the arms allows for the recruitment of the shoulder musculature

8
Q

What are the effects of abnormally increased SNS input to the lungs?

A

1) Bronchial dilation
2) Pulmonary arteriole vasoconstriction
3) Increased mucous production

9
Q

What division of the ANS is dominant in normal lung function?

A

PNS

*Vagal

10
Q

What is the result of abnormally increased PNS input to the lungs?

A

1) Bronchoconstriction

2) Copious thin secretions

11
Q

What type of ribs are caused by coughing?

A

Locked down

12
Q

What degree of scoliosis will cause respiratory impairment?

A

50 degrees

13
Q

Where do the left and right crus of the diaphragm attach?

A
Left= L1-2 
Right= L1-3
14
Q

What diagnosis is associated with RT1-3?

A

Right upper lobe pneumonia

15
Q

What diagnosis is associated with RT3-4?

A

Right middle lobe pneumonia

16
Q

What diagnosis is associated with RT5-6?

A

Right lower lobe pneumonia

17
Q

What diagnosis is associated with LT1-3?

A

Left upper lobe pneumonia

18
Q

What diagnosis is associated with LT4-6?

A

Left lower lobe pneumonia

19
Q

In a patient with acute asthma, should you address the OA first?

A

NO–this will heighten the PNS and exacerbate the sx.

20
Q

In treating an inflammatory pulmonary disease, what should you address?

A

T10-L1 b/c of adrenal input/ production of “natural anti-inflammatory”
