Question 9
Question
What will happen to air in a pneumothorax during expiration?
Question 10
Question
What will happen to air in a pneumothorax during inspiration?
Question 11
Question
Fill in the blanks to describe a tension pneumothorax.
A tension pneumothorax occurs when the defect in the chest wall acts as a flap [blank_start]valve[blank_end]. During [blank_start]expiration[blank_end], the defect [blank_start]closes[blank_end] and air cannot leave the thorax. During [blank_start]inspiration[blank_end], great pressure caused by the pleural cavity filling with [blank_start]air[blank_end] causes the heart to be shifted to the right. This compresses the heart and lung.
Answer
-
valve
-
closes
-
expiration
-
inspiration
-
air

Answer
-
Pneumothorax
-
Pneumonia
-
Pleural effusion
Question 14
Question
Why is there consolidation of lung tissue in x-rays of chests with pneumonia?
Answer
-
Accumulation of lymphocytes causes fluid buildup
-
Irritants in pleura stimulate serous membranes to produce extra fluid
-
Air in the pleural cavity appears misty grey
-
Accumulation of pus
Question 15
Question
What is pleural effusion?
Answer
-
Irritants in the parietal pleura stimulate serous membranes to produce extra fluid
-
Accumulation of lymphocytes causes fluid buildup
-
Irritants in parietal pleura cause serous membranes to stop producing serous fluid
-
Air in the pleural cavity due to puncture of the parietal pleura
