What do obstructive and restrictive flow-volume loops look like?
|
Obstructive is decreased top to bottom b/c flow rate is on the y-axis. Flow is dec in obstructive dx b/c of inc airway resistance
Restrictive is dec medial to lateral b/c the x-axis measures volume. Volume is dec in restrictive dx b/c the lungs have difficulty expanding |
|
What measures are typically low with obstructive dx?
|
FEV1, FEV1/FVC, FEF25-75%, PEFR
|
|
What type of dx is PEFR dec in? Why?
|
Obstructive, b/c peak exp. flow rate measures flow (speed) of expiration
Restrictive is usually normal |
|
What measures are typically dec in restrictive dx?
|
FVC nd FEV1 b/c dec volume
However, FEV1/FVC is not dec b/c both are dec proportionally |
|
How does restrictive dx influence the flow-volume loop? Spirograph?
|
F-V loops: Dec it horizontally
Spirograph: Dec it vertically |
|
How does obstructive dx influence the flow-volume loop? Spirograph?
|
Flow-volume: Dec it vertically
Spirograph: dec steepness of slope b/c of dec flow rat |
|
What effect will ex have on restrictive dx?
|
Inc RR b/c can't increase volume
This inc's dead space and energy expenditure and can cause hypocapnea |
|
What effect will ex have on obstructive dx?
|
Resp mm must work harder to overcome resistance in airways
|
|
What is MVV?
|
Max volunary ventilation
Max amt. of air that can be inhaled and exhaled in 15 sec (multiply by 4 to get 1 min) 124.8 = predicted value Tells you that you can inc your ventilation with ex and that this is or is not the limiting factor |
|
What is O2 defecit and why does it occur? How do you calculate it?
|
It is a decrease in oxygen consumption below the average steady state consumption
It occurs b/c initially we use anaerobic glycolysis, CPh stores, and O2 already bound to myoglobin and hgb to supply fuel to our musces Average steady state VO2 - VO2 at a particularl interval to calculate |
|
What is EPOC?
|
Inc rate of oxygen consumption following ex
Due to cellular repair, replenishing energy reserves, clear lactate, replenish glycogen |
|
How do we meet the body's energy demands prior to attaining a steady state?
|
Creating Phosphate
Anaerobic glycolysis Desaturate oxygen stores |
|
How do you calculate EPOC?
|
Avg resting VO2 - VO2 after ex
|
|
Why does minute ventilation inc before ex starts?
|
Feedforward system due proprioceptors and mechanoreceptors
|
|
VO2 formula
|
Q x a-vO2 difference (fick formula)
|
|
What is RER and what does it tell you?
|
Respirtory exchange ratio
VCO2/VO2 Tells you what fuel source you are using, .7 = fat, 1.0 = CHO |
|
What happens to FEO2 and FECO2 with ex?
|
FEO2 decreases b/c we extra O2 better
ECO2 increases b/c we are producing more CO2 and we need to get rid of it |
