Q

tracheobronchial tree change

A

decrease passageway diameter
decrease cartilage - rings –> irregular cartilage plates –> elastic fibres
increase in smooth muscle
change in epithelium - pseudo stratified columnar –> simple ciliated cuboidal epithelium

Q

alveoli two type epithelium
pnuemocytes

A

type 1 simple squamous - gas exchange
type 2 simple cuboidal - secrete alveolar fluid and surfactant (like detergent)

17
Q

dust cells alveoli

A

alveolar macrophages
remove fine dust and debris

18
Q

respiratory membrane

A

3 layers 0.5/1 micrometers~
alveolar epithelium,
fused alveola and capillary basement membrane
capillary endothelium

19
Q

diffusion coefficient

A

how easily a gas can diffuse out of a liquid
relative number

20
Q

oxygen exchange in body

A

external: alveoli to blood
internal: blood to tissues

21
Q

co2 exchange in body

A

external: blood to alveoli
internal: tissues to blood

22
Q

active breathing
muscles inhalation

A

diaphragm
external intercostal muscles
scalene muscle
pectoralis minor
sternocleidomastoid

23
Q

active breathing
muscles exhalation

A

relax inspiratory muscles
elastic recoil of lungs, surface tension
internal intercostal
abs

24
Q

inspiratory capacity

A

the amount of air a person can inspire maximally after normal expiration
tidal volume + inspiratory reserve volume

25
functional residual capacity
amount of air remaining in the lungs at the end of a normal expiration expiratory reserve volume + residual volume
26
total lung capacity graph
inspiratory reserve volume + expiratory reserve volume + tidal volume + residual volume
27
respiratory rate
number of breaths taken per minute
28
minute ventilation
total amount of air moved into and out of the respiratory system each minute (tidal volume x respiratory rate)
29
anatomic dead space *
space formed by nasal cavity, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi, bronchioles and terminal bronchioles
30
alveolar ventilation*
volume of air available for gas exchange per minute
31
forced vital capacity (FVC)
max volume of air that can be forcefully expired as fast as possible after a deep breath in
32
forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV_1sec)
volume of air expired in the first second of the test
33
forced expiratory volume 1% (FEV_1%)
FEV_1sec expressed as a percentage of the FVC
34
dynamic lung test
lung volume in relation to time dependent on rate of flow of air usu determined during repetitive breathing diagnose obstructive lung disease
35
static lung test
independent of rate of air flow determine during one max inspiration/expiration 5 static volume: tidal, inspiratory reserve v, expiatory reserve v, inspiratory and vital capacity
36
obstructive (chart /)
FVC normal FEV1sec low lung volume normal, air way narrow asthma, bronchitis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder
37
Restrictive (chart---)
FVC low FEV1sec low FEV1% normal restricted airway overall lung volume decrease pulmonary fibrosis, pneumonia, emphysema
38
exercise ventilation adaption
slight increase vital capacity slight decrease residual volume max exercise, tidal volume and minute ventilation increases
