lecithin to sphingomyelin ration of ? indicates fetal lung maturity
2
how far down does pseudostratified ciliated cells go
respiratory bronchioles
how far down do goblet cells go
terminal bronchioles
what kind of cells are type I pneumocytes and what do they do
squamous
line alveoli
what's dipalmitoyl phosphatidylcholine
surfactant
what kind of cells are type II pneumocytes and what do they do?
cuboidal
precursors to I and secrete surfactant

II
are clara cells cilieated?
no

angiotensin II
what is vital capacity
everything but the reserve volume/dead space
what is tidal volume relative to vital capaciety
it's teh VC less the inspiratory and expiratory reserve volumes
what is VC + RV
TLC
what is physiologic dead space
its the anatomical dead space of the conducting airways plus the functional dead space in the alveoli

it's also the volume of inspired air that does not take part in gas exchange
what's the formula for dead space?
VD= VT x (PaCO2 - PeCO2) / PaCO2

PaCO2 is arterial PCO2
PeCO2 is expired air PCO2
VT = tidal volume
VD = dead space
an increases in all factors (except one) causes what kind of a shift of the hemoglobin dissociation curve
all but pH and CO shift it to the right
Right Shift factors
CADET face right
CO2
Acid/Altitude
DPG
Exercise
Temperature
in normal health is oxygen exchange perfusion or diffusion limited?
perfusion
in emphysema or fibrosis is oxygen exchange perfusion or diffiusion imited?
diffusion
which gasses are perfusion or diffusion limited?
CO2 - perfusion limited
N2O - perfusion limited
CO - diffusion limited
how does CO affect the oxygen-hemoglobin dissociation curve
left
mmHg that marks pulmonary hypertension
25
Pulmonary vascular resistance formula
PVR = (Ppa - Pleft atrium) / (CO)

this is basically just R= P/Q
how does pulmonary resistance get affected by the viscosity of inspired air? airway radius
proportional to viscosity

inversely proportional to r to the fourth power
what is oxygen content of the blood
O2 binding capacity x % saturation + dissolved O2
normal O2 binding capacity
1.34 ml O2 per gram hemoglobin
what is normal hemoglobin?

at what level is cyanosis
15

cyanosis at <5
what is normal O2 binding capacity
20.1 mL O2 /dL
what is affected by decrease in hemoglobin?
O2 content
O2 saturation
arterial PO2
O2 content only
what happens to PO2 in chronic lung disease? why?
decreases, because physiologic shunt decreases O2 extraction
alveolar gas equation
PAO2 = 150 - PaCO2 / 0.8
A-a gradient
PAO2 - PaO2

Normally 10-15 mmHG
what is wasted in the apex of teh lung, ventilation or perfusion
ventilation is wasted

(in the base perfusion is wasted)
where is ventilation greater, at the base or apex of the lung? where is perfusion greater?
both greater at the base!!!!

but there's nevertheless wasted ventilation in the apex

Wasted Air At Apex
in shunt what does V/Q value become
closer to 0.
what's the Haldane effect
that's where oxygenation of Hb in the lungs promotes the dissociation of H+ from ttHb and pushes equilibrium toward CO2 formation so that CO2 is released from RBCs
what is the Bohr effect
this refers to the push of high H+ concentration in the peripheral tissues towards a rigth shift in the dissociation curve
what's carbaminohemoglobin
this is carbon dioxide bound to hemoglobin (5% of total CO2 in body)
what happens to ventilation in high altitude
acute increase
what happens to 2,3 DPG in high altitude
binds to hemoglobin to release more O2
what happens to mitochondria in high altitude
they increase in number
what happens to bicarb excretion in high altitude
it increaese
how can you increase renal excretion of bicarb in high altitutde
acetazolamide
what happens to the heart in high altitude
eventually, chronic hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction results in RVH
FEV1/FVC ration in COPD
decreased
name the 4 COPDs
chronic bronchitis
emphysema
Asthma
Bronchiectasis
hypertrophy of mucus secreting glands in bronchiles
