  Side A   Side B
1
foreign bodies are much more likely to enter the....
 
Right mainstem
2
contraction of smooth muscles causes
 
shortening & narrowing of airway
3
alveoli are dependent on this to maintain patency
 
airway pressure
4
returns oxygenated blood to left heart via
 
pulmonary circulation
5
supplies oxygen to the lung parenchyma & returns deoxygenated blood to the left heart via...
 
bronchial circulation
6
respiratory centers in the brainstem produce
 
automatic breathing activity regulated by input from chemoreceptors can be overriden by...
7
volutary control of respiration
 
from cerebral cortex also know as Central Pattern Generator
8
AS Ppa & Ppv incresase 3 things occur
 
1. recruitment or opening of previously unperfused vessels 2.distention or widening of previously...
9
pulmonary vascular bed in healthy individuals
 
HIGH flow, low pressure
10
pulmonary vessels respond to acute hypoxia by
 
constricting diverts blood away from hypoxic alveoli
11
Halogenated inhalation agents inhibit
 
HPV -- in dose dependent manner
12
Estimation of anatomic dead space
 
Body weight in pounds
13
represents a fixed volume
 
anatomic deadspace (as TV decreases--> anatomic dead space will make up a larger portion...
14
Most effective way to increase alveolar ventilation
 
Increase depth of breathing as opposed to increase breathing rate
15
results in pulmonary HOTN and failur to perfuse to the uppermost part of the lung (zone 1)
 
LOW cardiac output
16
sudden changes in ETCO2 during ventilation indicate
 
changing alveolar dead space secondary to abrupt variations in CO (PE, posture during MV)
17
Resting values for alveolar ventilation/ perfusion
 
4L/min = alveolar ventilation 5L/min= pulmonary blood flow --> 0.8 L/min
18
V/Q ratio of ZERO
 
unventilated alveoli
19
PO2 & PCO2 values are same as mixed venous blood
 
SHUNT UNIT trapped air in alveoli equilibrates w/ mixed venous blood
20
V/Q ration of INFINITY
 
UNPERFUSED ALVEOLI
21
PO2 & PCO2 are same as inspired gas
 
DEADSPACE UNIT no gas exchange occurs to alter composition
