*decrease* *decreased v/q* *shunting*

Cardio pathologies ___ perfusion resulting in a ___ v/q

*decrease* *increased*

Pulmonary circulation is the flow of ___ blood from the ___ to the ___ and back to the heart.

*deoxygenated* *heart to the lungs*

What organ is used with inspiration?

*diaphragm*

*flail chest* *chest wall*

*Bronchiolitis* is an ___ obstruction in small airways. The main concern is pulmonary impairment d/t ___ ___ inflammation

*inflammation* *smooth muscle*

Which part of breathing requires the most effort? Why?

*inspiration* *need to use diaphragm*

Pulmonary circulation has a ___ pressure than the systemic circulation. Why? higher lower equal

*lower pressure* *shorter distance to travel*

Pt has inhaled a chicken nugget & it is now obstructed in the trachea. Is this an upper or lower obstruction?

*lower*

Does the brain or lungs receive air first?

*lungs*

Pip must remain ___ , otherwise the lung will ___ causing a ___

*negative* *collapse* *pneumothorax*

Which muscles are used with forced expiration?

*rectus abdominus*

Hypercapnia in the alveolar sacs leads to ____ ___

*respiratory acidosis* *excessive CO2 (basic) in the blood*

If a pt starts choking, which bronchi is most likely to become obstructed? Why?

*right bronchi, more vertical, larger (3 lobes)*

What protective reflex is triggered by decreased O2 at the alveoli?

*shunting*

Diverting blood away from a bad alveoli to a good alveoli is called ___ which results in ___ O2/CO2 exchange and overall ___ SpO2

*shunting* *increasedO2/CO2* *increased SpO2*

Chronic asthma can lead to obstruction and ___ ___ which is a medical emergency. Why is this a medical emergency?

*type II pneumocytes/alveoli* *type I is needed for gas exchange ABCs*

Pt has a sinus infection and laryngitis. Are these considered an upper or lower infections?

*upper*

What is the disadvantage of shunting?

*vasoconstriction resulting in pulmonary HTN*

What are the 4 steps of fxn in the pulmonary system? How does this differ from CO2 diffusion?

*ventilation - moving gas* *diffusion - moving gas at a cellular level, O2 onto RBC* * perfusion - moving blood to tissues* * diffusion - from RBC to tissue* *CO2 diffusion occurs in opposite order*

Bronchitis vs. Bronchiolitis

difficulty breathing

Orthopnea

difficulty breathing when lying down

Pulmonary edema leads to ___, leading to ___ ->___->___

hypoxia shunting increased capillary hydrostatic pressure

all of the above

Which structure of the conducting airways contain smooth muscle and are considered the primary reactive airway?

*bronchioles*

Increased v/q indicates ___ ____

*cardio pathology*

What type of pathology is shunting?

*cardio*

Oxygen is transported via ____ or by ___ in plasma

*97% oxyhemoglobin (RBCs)* *3% dissolved*

What is the primary method of CO2 transport? Why?

*Bicarbonate HCO3* *prevents pH changes*

Why does CO2 want to leave the body?

*CO2 is high in tissues, low outside of the body* *gases move from high to low*

Which of the following do the peripheral chemoreceptors (lungs) detect? Select all that apply: CO2 H+ O2

*CO2* *H+* *O2*

What substances do the chemoreceptors in the medulla of brain detect in the blood?

*CO2* *H+* h2o (h2o + co2 = H+)

What occurs after emphysema, chronic bronchitis, & chronic asthma?

*COPD*

Anaphylactic shock would warrant what treatment? Epi pen Cut hole in the trachea Apply O2 mask All of the above
