Question
Answer
_____ is the pressure difference between two points in a tube or vessel.   show
🗑
____ is the pressure gradient difference between the barometric pressure (at the mouth) and alveolar pressure.   show
🗑
show Transpulmonary  
🗑
show volume; unit pressure  
🗑
show 0.1 ; 100  
🗑
Define elastance:   show
🗑
show Hookes Law  
🗑
show During liquid gas interface, the liquid molecules are strongly attracted to liquid molecules within the liquid mass.  
🗑
LaPlace's law formula:   show
🗑
___is a phospholipid produced by the Type II pneumocytes and acts to decrease surface tension in the alveoli.   show
🗑
show the study of forces in action (in the lungs this refers to movement of gasses in and out & pressure changes needed for that movement.  
🗑
show the process that exchanges gas between the external environment and the alveoli. It is the mechanism by which oxygen is carried from the atmosphere to the alveoli & by which carbon dioxide is carried from the alveoli to the atmosphere.  
🗑
show Plateau pressure  
🗑
What Causes an Increased Plateau Pressure?   show
🗑
___is the highest pressure that occurs in the lungs during the inspiratory phase of breathing. It represents the amount of pressure needed to overcome airway resistance and chest wall compliance in order to deliver a breath.   show
🗑
Airway resistance defined:   show
🗑
Time constants defined:   show
🗑
Of all the factors affecting flow, which factor plays the most important role relative to its effect on flow?   show
🗑
show 0.5-1.5  
🗑
show Laminar, turbulent, tracheobronchial or transitional  
🗑
Laminar Flow explaned:   show
🗑
Turbulent Flow enplaned:   show
🗑
Tracheobronchial or Transitional Flow explained:   show
🗑
show Tidal volume (VT), Respiratory Rate (F), Time relationship between inhalation and exhalation  
🗑
show 3-4mL/lb or 5-7mL/kg  
🗑
show 12-20 bpm  
🗑
List three phases of the ventilatory cycle.   show
🗑
___ ventilation is the portion of inspired gas that reaches the alevoli and participates in gas exchange.   show
🗑
show Deadspace  
🗑
show Anatomic, alveolar, and physiologic  
🗑
show volume of gas in conducting airways  
🗑
Alevolar deadspace defined:   show
🗑
Physiologic deadspace defined:   show
🗑
show complete absence of spontaneous ventilation  
🗑
Eupena is:   show
🗑
Biot’s (“Bee-ohz”) Breathing   show
🗑
Hyperpnea   show
🗑
show an increased alveolar ventilation (produced by any ventilatory pattern that causes an increase in either ventilation rate or depth of breathing) that causes the PACO2 and the PaCO2 to decrease  
🗑
Tachypnea   show
🗑
show a decreased alveolar ventilation produced by any pattern that causes an increase in the PACO2 and the PaCO2.  
🗑
Cheyne-Stokes Breathing   show
🗑
show Both and increase in depth and rate of breathing causing the PaCO2 to decrease and the PaO2 to increase. (commonly associated with diabetic ketoacidosis)  
🗑
show a condition in which an individual breathes most comfortably sitting up.  
🗑
Dyspnea   show
🗑
is the pressure difference that occurs across the airway wall.   show
🗑
show Transpulmonary  
🗑
show Transthoracic  
🗑
