adequate breathing is characterized by? Adequate respiratory rate and tidal volume
(Vt) is the amount of air the pt. breaths in and out with ____ regular breath 1
adults normal rate is 8-24 per min.
elderly pt have ______ respiratory rates higher
elderly normal rate is 20-22 per min
children normal rate is 15-30 per min
infants normal rate is 25-50 per min
How do you characterize inadequate breathing? Give at least 6 examples too slow, fast, irregular pattern, diminished or no sound, unequal chest expansion, pale, use of accessory muscles
How much of the hearts mass is located to the left of the mid-line of the body 2/3rds
Double-walled sac that encloses the heart, gives support and prevents friction is called pericardium
how many chambers does the heart have? 4
name the upper chambers in the heart atria
what chamber receives blood from the veins? atria
R-atrium receives oxygen_________ blood from the body depleted
left atrium receives oxygen_______blood from the lungs rich
lower chambers are called_______ ventricles
what does the R- ventricle do? pumps O2 depleted blood to the pulmonary arteries where it is then transferred to the lungs to be oxygenated
What does the L- ventricle do? Pumps O2 rich blood to the aorta then to the body cells
name the valves of the heart tricuspid valve pulmonary valve mirtal valve aka bicuspid valve aortic valve
what does the myocardium do contracts and ejects blood from the heart
where does the electrical impulse in the heart originate from? S.A node Sinoatrial

Name some of the functions of the circulatory system perfusion of cells removal of waste reservoir to house blood, buffering acid-base balance, delivers immune cells to fight infection promotes clotting
this valve sits at the base of aortic artery aortic valve
this valve is between the L atrium and the L ventricle Mitral valve or bicuspid valve
This valve is located in the R ventricle at the base of the pulmonary artery pulmonary valve
this valve is between the R atrium and the R ventricle tricuspid valve
_________ is the force extroverted by the blood on the interior walls of the arteries blood pressure
_________ is the pressure against the walls of the arteries when the L ventricle contracts systolic blood pressure
__________ is the pressure exerted against the walls of the arteries when the L ventricle is at rest. diastolic blood pressure
_________ is force exerted on the on the inside of the vessel walls as a result of the b.p and volume hydrostatic pressure
leaking fluid in to the tissue is called edema
another word for SHOCK is hypo-fusion
An inadequate elimination of carbon dioxide and other wastes that result from inadequate circulation of blood is called what? hypo-fusion aka shock
What are the final bi products of glucose metabolism? water and carbon dioxide
