Question
Answer
Vallecula   Depression at the back of the tongue. It is an anatomical landmark for intubation.  
🗑
Glottis   Space between the vocal cords. This is the narrowest point where air goes through in adults.  
🗑
Epiglottis   Flap of skin that protects the trachea from aspiration.  
🗑
Carina   Bottom of trachea where the mainstems split into left and right. The tip of the ET tube should be 2" above to avoid irritation.  
🗑
Divisions of the Pharynx   Nasopharynx (Nose straight back,contains adenoids and eustachian tubes), Oropharynx (Mouth straight back, contains tonsils and vallecula), Laryngopharynx (Bottom of throat, contains voicebox, epiglottis, esophagus)  
🗑
Main functions of the nose   Filter, Humidify, and Warm inspired air  
🗑
Differentiate the Right Bronchi from the Left Bronchi...   Right Bronchi is Wider, Shorter by 5cm, and more vertical with a 25 degree angle. Left Bronchi is narrower, Longer by 5 cm, and more horizontal with a 40-60 degree angle  
🗑
Turbinates   Are located in the nose, there are 3 layers (superior, middle, and inferior) they play a major role in humidification and warming of inspired air.  
🗑
Cell types in the Alveoli   Type 1 ( thin/broad, 95% of cells, Diffusion of gases) Type 2 (cuboidal, 5% of cells, Make and Store pulmonary surfactant) Type 3 (Alveolar macrophages, protect and serve the alveolus)  
🗑
How many Lobes and Segmental Bronchi do the Right and Left lung contain?   Right Lung (3 Lobes, 10 Segmental Bronchi) Left Lung (2 Lobes, 8 Segmental Bronchi)  
🗑
The adult Trachea is how long and how wide?   11-13 cm Long and 1.5-2.5 cm Wide  
🗑
Where is Pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelium found?   In the tracheobronchial tree starting with the trachea going down to the respiratory bronchioles (excludes the Alveolar ducts and sacs)  
🗑
Parts of the tracheobronchial tree   Trachea, Right and Left Mainstem, Lobar Bronchi, Sengmental Bronchi, Subsegmental Bronchi, Bronchioles, Terminal Bronchioles, Respiratory Bronchioles, Alveolar Ducts, Alveolar Sacs.  
🗑
Parts in the conducting zone of the tracheobronchial tree   Trachea,Right and Left Mainstems, Lobar Bronchi, Segmental Bronchi, Subsegmental Bronchi, Bronchioles, Terminal Bronchioles.  
🗑
Parts in the Respiratory Zone of the tracheobronchial tree   Respiratory Bronchioles, Alveolar Ducts, Alveolar Sacs  
🗑
Cartilagenous Airways (In conducting zone)   Hold open airways- trachea, Right and Left Mainstems, Lobar Bronchi, Segmental Bronchi, Subsegmental Bronchi.  
🗑
Noncartilagenous Airways (In conducting zone)   Bronchioles, Terminal Bronchioles.  
🗑
Parts in Respiratory Zone responsible for gas exchange)   Respiratory Bronchioles, Alveolar Ducts, Alveolar Sacs.  
🗑
Functions of the upper airway   act as a conductor of air, humidify and warm the inspired air, Prevent foreign materials from entering tracheobronchial tree, Serve as an important area involved in speech and smell.  
🗑
Pulmonry Lymphatics (Function, Location, and Density)   Function- remove excess fluid that leaks out of pulmonary capillaries.  
🗑
