Process of respiration:
What are the 4 major events? |
Ventilation
Gas exchange gas transport to and from body tissues regulation of breathing |
|
|
Ventilation consists of the movement of air from outside the body into the ... and back out again. The quality of ventilation depends on the following
-Respiratory ... and their associated structures (best for OMT) -Mechanical properties of the airways -Lung parechymal respiratory units(*) |
alveoli
muscles |
|
|
Work associated with the respiratory effort:
... resistance- force required to expand the lung tissue or parenchyma. Work of normal quiet breathing mainly involves overcoming this force. ... resistance-Not a factor in quiet breathing but the main force to overcome in heavy breathing. Increased by asthma, interstitial fluid, flu, etc. ... -the area we can improve the most with the use of OMT |
Tissue
Airway Compliance |
|

compliance:
Definition-the change in ... resulting from a change in .... Increased compliance means a greater change in volume with the ... amount of pressure. In the pulmonary system compliance is the expandability of lungs and the thoracic cage Somatic dysfunction of the spine and ribs limits the expandability of the thoracic cage |

Thoracoabdominal Diaphragm:
It is shaped like a large dome dividing the thorax from the abdomen with the right side slightly higher because of the presence of the liver. The level of the top varies from the ... intercoastal space (expiration) to the ... intercoastal space(inspiration) |

Autonomics:
Sympathetic innervation also supplies vasomotor fibers to the trachea, bronchi and pulmonary blood supply originating from middle, superior cervical, stellate and upper thoracic ... chain ganglion. Parasympathetic innervation from the vagus to the bronchi and bronchioles are mainly ... and ... . (OA) |
