Little Bit Of Everything Flashcards
Secondary muscles of inspiration
Internal and external intercostals, SCM, and scalenes
Intensity of exercise can be regulated by
HR, MET level, and RPE
Primary muscle of inspiration
Diaphragm
Coronary arteries
Smaller vessels that carry oxygenated blood to the myocardium
Cardiac conduction system includes
Sinoatrial (SA) node and atrioventricular (AV) node
What is the normal pacemaker of the heart?
SA node
The reflexes by which BP is maintained are known as:
Baroreflex
Baroreceptors are mechanoreceptors that detect changes in pressure
Baroreceptor reflex
Venous return
The amount of blood that returns to the right atrium each minute
Cardiac output (CO)
The amount of blood pumped from the L or R ventricle per minute. Male 4-5 L/min, women slightly less. Increasing up to 25 L/min during exercise
Stroke volume (SV)
The volume of blood ejected by each contraction of the L ventricle. Ranges 60-80 ml
Calculating BMI:
Weight (kg) / height (m2)
OR
Weight (lb) / height (in2) x 703
Contraction of ___________ And ___________ muscles elevate the ribs
External and internal intercostals
Upward movement of the upper ribs increases the
Anterior-posterio (A-P) diameter of the chest
Elevation of the lower ribs increase the _______
Transverse diameter
During quiet breathing exhalation results from
Passive recoil of the lungs and rib cage
During forceful breathing the __________, ____________, __________, and ________ depress the lower ribs and compress the abdominal contents pushing up the diaphragm and assisting with exhalation
RA, external and internal oblique, and transverse abdominis
Upper respiratory tract:
Nasal cavity, pharynx, and larynx
Lower respiratory tract:
Larynx to alveoli
Trachea begins / ends at
Larynx ( base of the neck ) ending at carina ( level of 4th thoracic vertebra and stern all angle )
Trachea consists of
Horse shoe shaped rings of cartilage that support the anterior and lateral walls
Brochopulmonary segments in the R and L lobes
10-R, 8-L
R lung has ____ lobes, L lung has ______ lobes
3-R, 2-L
Lingua of L upper lobe is analogous to R middle lobe
Under abnormal circumstances the pleural space may contain ____________, _______________, or __________________ which compress the lung and cause respiratory distress
Air (pneumothorax)
Blood (hemothorax) or
Increased amounts of serous fluid
