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 |
