Question | Answer |
---|---|
Function of respiratory system | Pick up oxygen Drop off Co2 |
Divided passageways lined with cilia and membrane | Nose |
Extended out from the nose- become infected commonly | Nasal Cavities |
Hollow areas in skull bones | Frontal, Sphenoid, Ethmoid, Maxillary |
Responsible for sense of smell | Olifactory epithelium cells |
What connects the pharynx to the middle ear | Eustachian tube |
Medical Terminology for wind pipe | Trachea |
Organ of speech-voice box | Larynx |
Sound is produced by air over | vocal cord |
Structure which covers Glottis (opening of windpipe) | Epiglottis |
Esophagus | Food and liquid enters |
Initial two branches of trachea | Bronchi |
What enter and leaves at the hilus of the lung | Primary bronchi and Pulmonary blood vessels |
Parts of the lung | Bronchi, bronchial tree, bronchioles,terminal bronchioles, avioli |
Parts of the Upper Respiratory Tract | Nose, Pharynx, Larynx, Nasal Cavities |
Trace from nose to alveoli | Nose, pharynx, larynx, trachea, primary bronchi, bronchial tubes, bronchioles, terminal bronchoiles, alveoli |
Describe pulmonary and systemic exchange | Blood drop off Co2 and pick up oxygen |
The space between two lungs | Mediastinum |
Inner lining of lung | Visceral pleura |
Sac enclosing lung | Parietal pleura |
Why do Upper Respiratory infection spread so quickly | Moist, warm, and dark |
Describe automatic respiration | Co2 goes up, oxygen goes down stimulates medulla to stimulate the phrenic nerve then causes the diaphram to contract causing respiration |
`Tidal volume | 500 ml -Volume moved into or out of the respiratory tract during a normal respiratory cycle |
Residual volume | 1200 ml- volume remaining in the respiratory tract after maxium expiration |
Vital capacity | 4800 ml- Maximum amount of air exhaled after a maxium inspiration (sum of two or more respiratory volumes)` |
Total Lung Capacity | 6000 ml -Amount of air in the lungs after maximum inspiration |
Conditions which could cause alveoli to become thin, dilated, useless: | COPD including asthma. Barrel chest- chest swells in the form of a barrel. Chronic cyanosis are the symptoms of clubbing |
Condition of swelling of the trachea, wheezing and dyspena, especially with exhalation | Asthma |
Condition of lung and alveoli- infectious, viral or bacterial withe presence of exudate | Pneumonia |
Extremely communicable, caused by tubercule bacillus | Tuberculosis-airborne |
Irregularly fast, slow, shallow deep respiration with 20 sec period of apena; precedes death | Cheyne- Stroke Respiration |
URI, sometimes causing GI upset, always viral | Influenza |
Deviated septum | Not straight Rdown the middle |
Rhinoplasty | Surgery of the nose |
Pertussis | Whopping cough |
Pneumothorax | Air in the thoracic cavity caused by trauma |
Atelectasis | Collasped lung |
Empyema | Pus in the pleura cavity |
Thickening and inflammation of pleural fluid and pleural sac | Pleurisy |
Rales | Rattling in the lungs caused by fluid |
coryza | Medical term for common cold |
Hyperpnea | Deep and fast breathing |
Pharyngitis | Inflammation of the throat |
Strept throat | Infection caused by streptococcus |
Croup | Occurs in infants and children after upper and lower respiratory tract infection- barking cough |
Diptheria | Caused by bacterium Corynebacterium diptheriae-contagious -toxin damaging to tissues of the heart and central nervous system |
