Question | Answer |
---|---|
water is gaseous for {vapor} "cant see it" | humidity |
the process of adding humidity 2 air or medical gas | humidification |
any device that creates water vapor adding gaseous water to dry gas | humidifier |
liquid or solid particles suspended in a gas | aerosol |
any device that produces aerosol particles | nebulizer |
___&___ are responsible for heat & moisture exchange normally | Nose & upper airway |
nose heats & humidifies | inhalation |
nose collects moisture | exhalation |
inspired gas achieves BTPS as it moves into the lungs | inhalation {37*C} |
body temperature; ambient pressure; saturated w/water vapo | BTPS |
5cm~below the Carina. this point is called the ISOTHERMIC SATURATION BOUNDARY ISB | BTPS is achieved ___ |
below this ISB temp & relative humidity remain ____ | constant |
actual content or wt of H2O(mg) that is present in a given volume of gas(L) written mg/L content is often substituted 4 this word | absolute humidity |
amount of water content that a gas is capable of holding at a given temp; as a gas is heated its capable of carrying more water vaopr | humidity capacity AKA potential humidity |
device used to directly measure relative humidity | hygrometer |
when absolute humidity ='s potential humidity then gas is ____ & RH is 100% | fully saturated |
temp 20*C | water vapor 17.3mg/L |
temp 25*C | water vapor 23mg/L |
temp 30 | water vapor 30.4mg/L |
temp 37*C | water vapor 43.9 |
temp 40*C | water vapor 51.1 |
absolute humidity/potential humidity X100=??? | % RH |
