23
Q

what is a condition that may result in clavicular breathing?

A

COPD, asthma, neuromuscular diseases

24
Q

muscles of active expiration cause the air to rush out of the thorax in two ways. what are they?

A
  1. ribs move in and down (squish lungs)
  2. abs contract – force guts up to chest (squish lungs)
25
is expiration usually active or passive?
passive
26
principle muscles of expiration? (7)
1. Internal intercostal muscles (interosseus part) 2. Rectus abdominus 3. External oblique muscles 4. Internal oblique muscle 5. Transverse abdominal muscle 6. Transverse thoracic muscle 7. Latissimus dorsi muscle
26
when may muscles of active expiration be used?
when yelling
27
expiration occurs when the pressure in the lungs is ___ than the atmosphere.
greater
28
During normal quiet breathing, most expiration occurs by ___.
elastic recoil
29
which direction do the ribs move during expiration? what about the diaphragm?
- ribs: inferiorly - diaphragm: superiorly
30
function of internal intercostals during active exhalation?
depress ribs
31
in order from deep to superficial, the intercostal muscles are…
transversus thoracic, innermost, internal intercostals
32
where is the interosseus part of the int intercostal muscles? origin? insertion? innervation? action?
- between bones - origin: inner surface of lower rib - insertion: inner surface of rib above - innervation: T1-T11 - action: ribs brought closer/down
33
origin, insertion, action, innervation of: rectus abdominus
- pubic crest - costal cartilages 5-7/xiphoid process - compress abdomen - T7-T11, T12
34
origin, insertion, action, innervation of: external oblique
- 8 lowest ribs - iliac crest - compress abdomen - T7-T11, T12
35
origin, insertion, action, innervation of: transversus abdominus
- iliac crest - aponeurosis - compress abdomen - T1-T11, T12, L1
36
origin, insertion, action, innervation of: internal oblique
- iliac crest - costal cartilages 3-4, aponeurosis - compress abdomen - T7-T11, T12, L1
37
origin, insertion, action, innervation of: transverse thoracis
- internal rib cage - internal costal cartilage - ribs down - T2-T6
38
origin, insertion, action of: latissmus dorsi
- spinous process of lower 6 thoracic vertebrae - humerus - compress thorax for forced expiration, elevates ribs for forced inspiration
39
what are the opposite muscle pairs of the inspiratory and expiratory systems?
- external intercostals + serratus posterior superior for inhalation - internal intercostals + serratus posterior inferior for exhalation
40
are inhalation muscles usually high or low? deep or superficial?
- high - superficial
41
are exhalation muscles usually high or low? deep or superficial?
- low - deep
42
3 parts of abdominal aponeurosis?
1. linea alba 2. linea semilunaris 3. inguinal ligament
43
EMBRYOLOGY: what happens at week 4?
Median laryngotracheal groove appears on floor of foregut (cranial part which becomes pharynx, esophagus, stomach, anterior intestine)
44
EMBRYOLOGY: what does the groove form when it deepens?
diverticulum
45
EMBRYOLOGY: what does the diverticulum form?
laryngotracheal tube
46
EMBRYOLOGY: what does the cranial vs caudal end of the tube become?
- cranial: laryngeal epithelium - caudal: lower resp system
47
EMBRYOLOGY: describe the development of the lung buds on the caudal part of the tube at weeks 16, 24, and age 3
- week 16: major lung elements form - week 24: resp is possible but immature - age 3: alveolar development almost complete
48
EMBRYOLOGY: until what age do new alveoli continue to develop until?
age 8
49
what kind of blood does the pulmonary artery receieve and from where?
- deoxygenated - right heart
50
where does the pulmonary artery bifurcate?
below aortic arch
51
where does the pulmonary artery transport blood?
capillary beds (for oxygen/CO2 exchange)
52
what kind of blood do the pulmonary veins transport and where?
- oxygenated - back to heart
