Question
Answer
What is Alveolar Dead Space?   show
🗑
show Pulmonary Embolism (blood clot)  
🗑
show Anatomic channel that bypasses the pulmonary capillary bed & empties venous blood into the L Atrium. (Ex: Thebesian, Broncial, Pulmonary, & Pleural veins)  
🗑
show Atelectasis & Alveolar Fluid  
🗑
show Conducting airways. Ideal body weight x 1 = approx dead space.  
🗑
Explain Alveolar Dead space   show
🗑
show Anatomic + Alveolar dead space (Vd/Vt)

🗑
What is normal Specific Compliance?   show
🗑
What is Elastance?   show
🗑
show 5cmH2O/L  
🗑
Low values of elastance indicate:   show
🗑
show The more alveoli in contact w/ other airways, the less likely they are to collapse.  
🗑
show Dipalmityl Lecithin - a phospholipid that dramatically reduces alveolar surface tension; keeps alveoli from collapsing.  
🗑
show Type II pneumocytes  
🗑
