Resource summary
Question 1
Question
At the apex of the lung
Answer
Increase in RV
Increase in FRC
Complaince is increased
VC is decreased
all of the above are correct
Question 2
Question
Airflow will go the area of highest compliance First so it will go to the apex
Answer
True
False
Question 3
Question
Relative ventilation is highest at the base of the upright lung due to the base having higher compliance at FRC than the apex
Answer
True
False
Question 4
Question
Work of breathing involves elastic (35%) and viscous resistance (65%)
Answer
True
False
Question 5
Question
Regarding Work of breathing Pressure volume curves
Answer
Restrictive disease elastic work increases
Obstructive disease - viscous work increases
In patients with increased lung compliance (emphysema) slow deep breaths would minimize the work of breathing
all of the above are correct
None of the above are correct
