Primary muscles of expiration
Abdominal muscles
internal intercostal muscles
Origin and insertion of rectus abdominus
origin- symphsis pubis
insertion- lower ribs
Used to determine the strength of the expiratory muscles
Valsalva maneuver
What is the effect of inspiration on venous return to the heart
Increased negative pressure
VC dilates
Less resistance
Increased blood return
What are the two ways that inspiration causes an increase in venous return to the heart
Decreases intrathoracic P
Increases intrabdominal P
Pressure difference across the wall of a blood vessel
Transmural pressure
At end-expiration TAP is a reflection of what; how do you calculate it
intrapleural pressure
reverse the sign
2 contributing factors to lung recoil
recoil of stretched elastic tissue
surface tension phenomena
Two values for the IPP at end expiration
-4 mmHg
-5 cm H2O
What are two conditions that will cause a positive IPP
Active expiration
Positive pressure ventilation
Ultimately responsible for inspiration and expiration
changes in lung volume
Most important contributer to lung recoil during passive expiration
surface tension
In what ways do the abdominal muscles cause expiration
They decrease lung volume by:
transverse
vertical
anterior/posterior
Causes the negative IPP
negative inspiratory pressure is in response to lung recoil secondary to the expansion that occured during inspiration
What happens to IPP and VR during inspiration in negative P breathing
IPP- decreases
VR- increases
What happens to IPP and VR during expiration in negative P breathing
IPP- increases
VR- decreases
What happens to IPP and VR during inspiration in positive P breathing
IPP- increases
VR- decreases
What happens to IPP and VR during expiration in positive P breathing
IPP- decreases
VR- increases
When is a closed tension pneumothorax most likely to occur
During positive pressure ventilation
What happens to the IPP during inspiration with a tension pneumo
IPP decreases
What happens to IPP during expiration with a tension pneumo
IPP becomes more positive
What is the formula for compliance
Change volume/ change Pressure (IPP)
What does hysteresis describe? What is believed to cause this
Dynamic compliance curve
Surface tension
Formula for specific compliance
compliance/ FRC

L/cm H2O/ L
What are 3 specific functions of the muscles of expiration when performing forced exhalation
accelerate exhalation process
increase resp. rate
increase volume of air exhaled
In relation to expiration, how do internal IC and ab muscles differ
Abs decrease transverse, vertical, and AP

IIC only decrease transverse and AP
