(131 cards)
1
Q
crackles (inhale crac, but not all at once)
A
nonmusical, discontinuous popping during inspiration
2
Q
hemoptysis
A
hemoptysis - blood from respiratory
3
Q
larnyx
A
watchdog of lungs. protects from foreign substances.
4
Q
parietal pleura
A
parietal pleura - lines thoracic cavity, lateral wall of mediastinum, diaphragm, and inner aspects of ribs.
5
Q
mediastinum
A
mediastinum - all thoracic tissue outside of lungs, ie heart, thymus, aorta and vena cava, esophagus.
6
Q
3 types of alveoli
A
alveoli - 3 types. type 1 and 2 are the epithelium. type 1 is 95% of surves and is a barrier btw air and alveolar surface. type 2 is 5% and produces type 1 cells and surfactant. 3rd type is alveolar macrophages.
7
Q
respiration
A
after capillary exchange, blood enters venous circulation and goes to pulmonary circulation. O2 in blood in capillaries is lower than in the alveoli. O2 then diffuses from alveoli to blood. Co2 the other direction.
8
Q
respiration definition
A
gas exchange btw atmospheric air and blood and blood and cells.
9
Q
inspiration during first
A
third of respiration cycle, expiration during latter 2/3.
10
Q

A
500 mL - may not vary even with severe disease.
11
Q
inspiratory reserve volume USE your reserve - (inspired but reserved by the movie 3000)
A
- 3000 mL. max volume of air that can be inhaled.
12
Q
expiratory reserve volume (she expired at 11 and went to heaven)
A
- 1100 mL - max that can be forceably exhaled.
13
Q
residual volume (cindella was just residual)
A
1200 mL - air remain gin in lungs after max exhalation
14
Q
vital capacity (it is vital to take it all 46)
A
4600 mL - max exhaled from point of max inspiration.
15
Q
inspiratory capacity (my inspiration maxed out at 35)
A
- Inspiratory capacity is the sum of tidal volume plus inspiratory reserve volume.
16
Q

A
2300 mL - air remaining in lungs after normal expiration
17
Q

A
5800 mL - air in lungs after max inspiration.
18
Q
pulmonary is considered low or high pressure?
A
low pressure
19
Q
perfusion is influenced by
A
alveolar pressure.
20
Q
severe hypoxia occurs when shunting exceeds
A
20%
21
Q
PAO2 is
A
this pressure ensure diffusion of O2 access the alveolar.
22
Q
he higher the PaO2, the greater the amount of
A
O2 dissolved. therefore the amount of dissolved O2 is directly proportional to the parietal pressure
23
Q
patterns of perfusion are determined (the pattern of art, gravity and alveoli)
A
artery pressure, gravity and alveolar pressure.
24
Q
oxygen saturation - 150 mm Hg
A
hemoglobin is 100% saturated.
25
VQ (and what are the states)
V/Q - ventilation perfusion ratio. different in different parts of the lungs.
V/Q states are: normal, low, high and silent.
26
oxyhemoglobin dissociation curve (is the curve oxygenated)
shows relationship btw partial pressure of oxygen and % of saturation of oxygen. % of sat. can be affected by CO2, hydrogen ions, temp.
27
oxyhemoglobin dissociation curve - shift to the right (right is less)
increase shifts curve to the right, thus less oxygen is picked up by lungs, but more is related to the tissues, if PaO2 is unchanged.
28
oxyhemoglobin dissociation curve - shift to the left (heme takes oxys then exits left)
a decrease causes a shift to the left, making bond btw oxygen and hemoglobin stronger.
advantage is if PaO2 decrease from 100 to 80, hemoglobin of arterial blood is still saturated at 94%.
29
breathing in and out controlled by
medulla oblongata and pons controls rate and depth of ventilation
30
central chemoreceptors in medulla respond to (chemo cerebro)
chemical changes in cerebrospinal fluid, which results from chemical changes in blood. the receptors respond to change in pH and then tell lungs to change depth and and then rate
31
peripheral chemoreceptors located in
aortic arch and carotid respond first to PaO2, then partial pressure of carbon dioxide and ph.
32
mechanoreceptors in lungs respond to changes in (the lungs are resistant to change)
resistance by altering breathing patterns.
at 50, alveoli lose elasticity. dead space increases.
33
acute lung disease causes
more sever grade of dyspnea than chronic diseases.

age related changes: these are normal. structural changes - stiffening of thoracic, decrease in height, kyphosis, compliance is decreased. increased residual volume. muscle changes - decreased strength of diaphragm and intercostals. tissue changes - decrease in elasticity = decreased vital capacity. reactivity of airway - is increased - more reactive airway, they have a delayed reaction to bronchodilators. gas exchange - depressed cough reflex. immune changes - increase in nuetrophils (caused chronic inflammatory) and decrease in macrophages.
97
V/Q - if dead space, there
is high V/Q mismatch. air is getting in, but what is perfused doesn’t match. low V/Q with pneumonia.

PASTE - provoking factors, associated chest pain, sputum production, tireness/time, exercise tolerance.
103
increase in total lung capacity
COPD. decrease = pulmonary fibrosis, sarcodosis.

105
total lung capacity - number
6000
106
Normal inspiratory pressure is approximately
100 cm H2O. less than 25 cm usually requires mechanical ventilation minute ventilation (MV)

Normal MV is 5-8 liter.
108
RR x tidal volume =
Minute Ventilation 12 X 500 mL – 6,000 mL (6 liters)
109
if volume goes up
rate goes down. if rate goes up, volume goes down
110
3 main components of respiratory assessment -
3 main components of respiratory assessment - airway, oxygenation, and ventilation
111
low oxygen concentration is
< 60 mmHg, or SaO2 < 90%.

decrease O2 = Hypoventilation, hypothermia, sedation, neuromuscular blocking agents, anesthesia, hypothyroidism, inactivity.
114
heart beats faster when O2 level is
low, increased RR.
115
oxygen toxicity
doesn’t usually occur until its over 50% for 24 hours. frequent headaches, anxiety, cyanotic (blue) lips or fingernails, drowsiness, confusion, restlessness, slow, shallow, difficult, or irregular breathing
116

119
how much is shunting? (started shunting at 5, yikes)
5%
120
simple face mask - min and max L and what % (keep it simple at 5 and 30)
Creates an additional reservoir; delivers 30-50%, minimum liter flow is 5L/min and maximum is 10L/min.
121
low flow mask (stay low, don't go above 10 or 60)
Face mask with reservoir/non-rebreather mask: delivers 60% oxygen at 10L/min flow and is the highest concentration of the low-flow systems. keep flaps patent.
122
low flow mask precautions
"close to 100% oxygen" contained therein Must have at least 10L flow ,reservoir bag must be 1/2 to 3/4 inflated
123

10 L minimum
124
positive pressure ventilation - bag valve mask (BVM) Bag-Valve Mask Indications. (bags are the highest)
Connect to oxygen source at 15L/min flow rate. Position patient supine. Perform basic airway maneuvers (head-tilt chin-lift or modified jaw thrust). Suction if necessary. I
125
positive pressure ventilation mask instructions - how often, breath sounds, and what tests?
Adult: one breath every 5-8 seconds . Do not hyperventilate. Assess breath sounds, skin, etc and ABG to determine effectiveness. you’re delivering 21% room air. we expire 17% o2. make sure to hear breath sounds on both sides. they will do a blood gas.
126
pneumothorax
pneumothorax - lung collapse
127
CPAP - don't go above what? And RR needs to be what before we use it?
CPAP - we can open alveoli using CPAP and push fluid. this lowers the amount of O2 needed bc we’ve created more surface area. pt needs to be spontaneously breathing. need to be alert enough to protect airway. need to be able to take mask off. don’t go above 10. the higher the pressure, the less cardiac output. pt should have resp rate of greater than 25/min. should have signs of early respiratory failure.
128
CPAP used for
Congestive heart failure, Pulmonary edema, COPD, Asthma, Pneumonia
Sleep apnea, Hypercapnic respiratory failure
129
CPAP HOB
45%
130
O2 tank
make sure more than half full. replace tanks under 500 psi. under 200 psi is critical. tell pt not to smoke near them.
