Accessory Inspiratory Muscles (4)
Sternocleidomastoid
Scalenes
Pectoralis Minor
Serratus Anterior
Accessory Expiratory Muscles (5)
Internal intercostal muscles
Internal Obliques
External Obliques
Rectus abdominis
Transversus Thoracis
Primary Inspiratory Muscles (2)
Diaphragm
External Intercostals
Tidal Volume
air moved in or out during resting breathing
Inspiratory Reserve Volume (IRV)
air breathed in above the normal tidal volume
Expiratory Reserve Volume (ERV)
air voluntarily expelled after tidal volume exhalation
Residual volume
air left in lungs after maximal exhalation
Minimal volume
air that would remain in lungs after collapse
Inspiratory capacity
TV+IRV = maximum amount of air that you can force into the lungs
Vital Capacity
ERV+TV+IRV = maximum amount of air we can exchange in one cycle of breathing
Functional Residual capacity (FRC)
ERV+ residual volume = amt of air left behind in lung after a resting breath
Total lung capacity
vital capacity+residual volume
Respiratory minute volume
volume of air moved per minute
breaths per minute x tidal volume
What are the two collections of neurons in the Medulla Oblongata and what do they do? - Level 1: Respiratory rhythmicity centers
1) Dorsal respiratory group (DRG) - the inspiratory center -> innervates the primary inspiratory muscles, therefore, modifies regular resting breathing rate

* must activate to activate primary inhalation muscles*
2) Ventral respiratory group (VRG) - controls accessory breathing muscles when necessary
What is hypercapnia? What is it most commonly caused by?
increased arterial PCO2

commonly caused by hypoventilation
What is hypocapnia? What is it most commonly caused by?
decreased arterial PCO2

most commonly caused by hyperventilation
Heart Sounds - S1 - what is happening during this sound?
Known as lubb
start of ventricular contraction and closure of AV valves
Heart sounds - S2- what is happening during this sound?
Known as dupp
closure of semilunar valves
What is cardiac output (CO)?
heart rate x stroke volume - amount of blood put out into the system in 1 minute

best overall indicator of peripheral blood flow
Define stroke volume
volume ejected from ventricle in one beat

= EDV - ESV
List 3 influences on EDV (end diastolic volume)
1) venous return -> the greater the venous return the greater the EDV

2) Filling time (duration of ventricular diastole) -> the slower the heart beat, the greater the filling time, the greater the EDV

3)Preload (amt of myocardial stretching) -> the more filling, the more stretching, the greater the EDV - increases SV because the ventricular muscle cells approach optimal length to generate more power
List 2 influences on ESV (end systolic volume)
1) contractility (amt of force produced during a contraction at a given preload) -> the greater the contractility, the lower the ESV, the greater the SV

2) Afterload (tension necessary for ventricular ejection) -> increased by any factor that restricts arterial blood flow, the greater the afterload, the greater the ESV, the lower the SV
The total peripheral resistance depends on which three factors?
1) vascular resistance - lgst component
2) viscosity
3) turbulence
What is net filtration pressure? What does a positive or negative answer mean?
Net filtration = CHP - BCOP
positive at beginning of capillary bed = filtration
negative by end of capillary bend = reabsorption
What is the term for lung collapse? (when the lung loses the adhesion to the thorax wall)
atelectasis or pneumothorax
What is the term for thickening or toughening of artery walls?
ateriosclerosis
What is the most common form of arteriosclerosis and what happens?
Atherosclerosis - formation of lipid deposits in tunica media, associated with tunica intima damage
Define Coronary Artery Disease (CAD)
areas of partial or complete blockage of coronary circulation - produces reduced blood flow to an area, this is known as coronary ischemia
What are vasodilators?
local chemicals that increase blood flow during autoregulation (local regulation of blood flow)
