| A | B |
|---|
| R system does what | provides ox for cell needs, removes CO2 |
| turbinate bones aka - does what | conchae - change flow of inspired air to moisture and warm |
| pharynx | throat - carries air from nose to larynx and food from mouth to esoph |
| tonsils and adenoids are made of | lymph tissue |
| larynx | voice box, facilitates cough |
| epiglottis | cartilage flap - covers larynx when swallowing |
| glottis | opening between vocal cords |
| lower airway | trachea, bronchi, bronchiloles, lungs, alveoli |
| controls ventilation | medulla oblongate and pons |
| chemoreceptors in medulla resond to | changes in CO2 and pH in cerebrospinal fluid and change rate/depth |
| diffusion | higher concentration to lower concentration |
| increased CO2 is present in body fluids as | carbonic acid |
| lower CO2 causes the pH to | increase |
| oxygen transported 2 ways in body | small amt dissolved in plasma - combine w/RBC |
| R acidosis - drop pH | kidneys retain more HCO3 to increase pH |
| R alkoalosis - high pH | kidneys excrete more HCO3 to lower pH |
| metabolic acidosis - | lungs blow off CO2 to raise Ph |
| metabolic alkalosis - | lungs retain CO2 to lower pH |
| asipiration is more common | R lung |
| compliance | ability to expand |
| CO2 is what | carbon dioxide - metabolic waste |
| most CO2 combines w/water n cells and exits as | bicarbonate ios, which plasma takes 2 kidneys |
| HCO3 is | bicarbonate |
| small portion that stays in the blood is | carbonic acid |
| R distress - BIG RED FLAG | LOC |
| clients w/R disorders can neither | get ox n blood or get CO2 out of blood |
| PFT - pulmonary function studies | measures ability of lungs |
| bronchoscopy | visual of larynx, trachea, bronchi |
| bronchoscopy use to | treat, biospy, sputum, remove stuff, |
| HCO3 - levels in blood | 22-26 |
| pH - levels | 7.35-7.45 |
| PaO2 - ox in arterial blood - levels | 80-100 |
| PaCO2 - CO2 in blood - levels | 35-45 |
