gas exchange
Surface area of alveoli
70 square meters or 40x surface area of entire body
Oxygen and CO2 diffuse where?
Oxygen into the blood.
CO2 into the lungs.
Define Pulmonary ventilation
a technical term for what most of us call breathing
Inspiration (4 steps)
1. Diaphragm contracts and descends making the thoracic cavity longer
2. Contraction of the intercostal muscles pulls the anterior end of each rib up and out.
3. Inspiration elevates the sternum and enlarges the thorax from the front to thr back and from side to side
4. As the size of the thorax increases, the intrapleural (intrathoracic) and intrapulmonic pressures decrease and inspiration occurs.
Volumes of air exchanges in pulmonary ventilation:

___measures volumes of air exchanges in breathing
spirometer
4 volume measurements
1. tidal volume
2. expiratory reserve volume
3. inspiratory reserve volume
4. residual volume
Tidal Volume
volume exhaled after a normal inspiration

=500ml
Expiratory Reserve volume
largest additional voume forcibly expired after expiring the TV
=1000-1200ml for an adult
Inspiratiry Reserve Volume
the amount of air forcibly inspired over and above a normal inspiration
=3000-3300ml
Residual Volume
air that remains in the lings after a forced expiration
=1200ml
Total Volume
5700-6200ml
(RV+ERV+TV+IRV)
Partial minimal volume:
In pneumothorax, not all the RV is removed from the lungs.
Volume that remains PMV and it is 40% of the RV.
Vital Capacity
is the sum of (IRV+TV+ERV) and represents the largest volume of air an individual can move in and out of his lungs.
range 57---6200
Vital Capacity depends on (5x)
1. Size of ones thoracic cavity
2. ones posture and various other factors
3. Volume of blood in lungs-encroaches on alveolar space
4. excess fluid in the pleural or abdominal cavities decreases VC
5. emphysema decreases VC-with em. the alveolar walls become stretched and lose elasticity
Inspiratory Capacity
IC=TV+IRV
Functional Residual Capacity
amount of air left in lungs after normal expiration

volume of air that reaches the alveoli
"dead air"
air in other passages that is not involved in exchange

Hyperpnea
increased breathing, usually increasing TV with or without an increased rate of breathing
Apnea
cessation of breathing at the end of a normal expiration
Apneusis
cessation of breathing in the inspiratory position
Cheyne-Stokes respiration
gradually increasing TV for several breaths, followed by several breaths with gradually decreasing TV. cycle repeats
