Frage 1
Frage
Intercostal muscles are the most important muscles of respiration
Frage 2
Frage
Muller's maneuver measures maximum inspiratory pressure (MIP) developed against a block of the trachea at RV
Frage 3
Frage
Valsalva maneuver measures Expiratory muscle strength - measures maximum expiratory pressure (MEP) at RV
Frage 4
Frage
Cough - which statement is wrong
Antworten
-
Sensory reflex loop - RARs (rapidly adapting receptors) detect irritants and stimulate trigeminal nerve -> brain stem -> motor neurons ->respiratory muscle contractions
-
Sequence - deep inhalation -> forced expiration on closed glottis -> open glottis forced espiration
-
3 most common cause of chronic cough (> 8 weeks) post nasal drip from rhinosinusitis, asthma and GERD
-
Reaches a speed of 28,000 cm/sec, eject about 40,000 microdroplets which may contain >200,000 virus particles
Frage 5
Frage
Airflow and respiratory pressures are measured in cm of H2O because the pressure changes in the lung are so small that it is hard to see a 1 or 2 mmHg change
Frage 6
Frage
Regarding pressures all of the following are true except
Antworten
-
P(alveolar) = P(barometric) at end inspiration and end expiration
-
P(alveolar) = P(Barometric) here is no air flow and glottis is closed
-
When P(alveolar) > P(barometric) the direction of airflow is - out of lungs (expiration)
-
PL = PA-Ppl
Frage 7
Frage
During Respiration the following is the sequence except
Antworten
-
Inspiratory muscles contract -> thoracic cavity expands
-
Pleural pressure becomes more negative (-5 to -8 cm of H2O)
-
Transpulmonary pressure decreases
-
lungs inflate and alveolar pressure becomes subatmospheric --> air flows into the lungs until alveolar pressure equals atmospheric pressure
