Question | Answer |
Lower Respiratory Tract function | Gas exchange |
Lobes r/t Left lung | Left lung has Less lobes(2) |
Respiration | Gas exchange b/w air and blood, Gas exchange b/w blood and cells |
Diffusion | oxygen-carbon dioxide exchange |
Causes r/t Increased airway resistance | Bronchial contraction(asthma), Thickened mucosa(chronic bronchitis), Obstruction, Decreased lung elasticity(emphysema) |
Pulmonary perfusion | Blood flow thru pulmonary circulation |
Tidal volume | Volume of air inhaled/exhaled w/each breath |
Expiratory reserve volume | Max volume exhaled forcibly after normal exhalation |
V/Q imbalances d/t | Inadequate ventilation, Inadequate perfusion, Both |
2 ways O is carried in blood | Dissolved in plasma, Hemoglobin |
PaO normal values | 80-100 mm Hg |
Respiratory function r/t Aging | Reduced surface area, elasticity & vital capacity, Increased dead space |
Major S/Sx r/t Respiratory disease | Dyspnea, Sputum production, Chest pain, Clubbing, Hemoptysis, Cyanosis |
Acute vs. Chronic lung diseases r/t Dyspnea severity | Acute are more severe |
Sudden dyspnea r/t Immobilized Pt's | Pulmonary embolism |
Orthopnea found in Pt's w/ | Heart disease, COPD |
Dyspnea w/expiratory wheeze | COPD |
Wheezing r/t Asthma | Present during inspiration and expiration |
Other disorders that may cause dyspnea | Cardiac disease, Anaphylactic reactions, Severe anemia |
Relief of dyspnea r/t Resting Pt's | High Fowler's(head elevation), Oxygen administration |
Cough d/t | Irritation of mucous membranes in respiratory tracts |
Cough in morning w/sputum | Bronchitis |
Purulent sputum d/t | Bacterial infection |
Frothy, pink sputum d/t | Pulmonary edema |
Hemoptysis | Expectoration of blood |
Late indicator of hypoxia | Cyanosis |
Barrel chest d/t | Emphysema |
PaCO r/t Hyperventilation | Decreased levels |
Hyperventilation r/t Severe acidosis | Kussmaul's respiration |
Alternating episodes of apnea w/periods of deep and shallow breathing | Cheyne-Stokes respiration |
Wheezes d/t | Bronchial wall oscillation, Changes in airway diameter |
Wheezes usually heard during | Expiration |
More conclusive- ABG vs. Pulse oximetry | ABG |
Pt cannot be discharged from recovery area until | Cough reflex & Respiratory status return |
