|
what are 4 cell types in the alveoli
|
I: line, thin, easy for gas exchange
II: make surfactant Macrophages (PAM): keep the alveoli clean (no mucus/cilia to do it. macro move up to respiratoy bronch and get swept upward by the cilia there) Clara: no cilia, helo make surfactant, have granules |

(4 specific ones) |
1. TV: air in normal breathing (includes air in conducting AND alv)
2. Inspiratory Reserve: extra air you breath in 3. Expiratory reserve: eatra air you can breath out 4. Residual: the air that is stuck in the lungs no matter how hard to exhale (not measured with spirometry) |
|
what are lung CAPACITIES
( 4 specific ones) |
1. IC (inspiratory capacity): total amt you breath in, Tv + IRV
2. functional residual capacity (FRC): air still in lungs after Tv exhalation, ERV + RV (equilibrium volume, volume in lung at rest- just b4 inspiration) 3. Vital Capacity: amt breathed out after maximal inhalation, IRV + ERV (increases with conditioning, size, sex & decreases with age) 4. Total Lung Capacity: all lung volumes, VC + RV 5.

|
what is dead space
anatomical physiological |
does not involve in gas exchange
anatomical: conducting zone Physiological: anatomical + any alveoli that isnt doing gas exchange, functional dead space (all alv do gas xchang in healthy) **PDS is TOTAL amt of air that doesnt participate in gas echange, includes anatomic and bad alveoli |
|
what does Tv include
|
its the air you breath in and out in normal respiration
**includes air in the conducting zone AND alv |
|
dead space
Anatomic Functional Physiological |
Anatomic: conducting
Functional: bad alveoli Physiological: sum of anatomic and functional, usually there is no functional dead space |
|
what causes functional dead space
|
when vent and perfusion dont match
V/Q mismatch |
|
in order to estimate PDS what assumptions need to be made?
|
1. all CO2 that is expired comes from alv
2. no CO2 in air 3. PDS does nothing to CO2 |
|
if PDS is 0 what happens to CO2 in alv and CO2 expired
what happens if there is PDS |
the CO2 that is in the alv is equal to the CO2 that is expired
If there is PDS the CO2 from alv is diluted and CO2 expired is less |
|
if you compare CO2 alv and CO2 Expired what can you determine
|
the dilution factor, ie the PDS
**recall through you use PaCO2 (PaCO2 & PACO2 are equal) |
|
if you want to use alv CO2 to determine PDS, what is used instead of a sample of alveolar air
|
arterial blood
**you cant sample alv air, BUT... alv air equilibrates with pulm capillary and you can use arterial blood to measure CO2 in alv |
|
what is one formula to determine Vd
(Vd is PDS) |
PDS = Vt (CO2a-CO2e/CO2a)
CO2a-CO2e/CO2a is the dilution factor of dead space **remember CO2a is the same as CO2 A |
|
what does A mean
what does a mean |
A: alv
a: arteriole |
|
List in order the steps of external respiration
|
1. VENTILATION of air btwn atm and alv in lungs, rate can vary
2. EXCHANGE of CO2 adn O2 btwn alv air and alv blood, diffusion 3. TRANSPORT of CO2 and O2 btwn tissue/lungs. CO2 carried as bicarb, O2 carried on Hg 4. EXCHANGE of CO2 and O2 btwn blood and tissue, diffusion **then it goes to internal respiration at the level of the tissue |
|
what is internal respiration, where is it done, what is made, what is used
|
"cellular respiration" mitochondria
use O2 and food to make CO2, H20 and ATP |
|
Summary
External Respiration Internal Respiration |
External: vent, exchange, transport, exchange
Internal: mito, RQ varies with food, (CO2/O2) |
|
what is RQ
What type of respiration Normal value, can the value change |
Respiratory Quotient
Internal Respiration CO2 produced/O2 consumed normal 0.8 varies with food (carb 1, fat, 0.7, protein 0.8) **less CO2 is made for a given molecule of O2 with fat/protein compared to carbs |
|
so... when you eat fat what does RQ do, what does this mean
|
RQ normal is 0.8
RQ fat is 0.7 the RQ is less (CO2/O2) so CO2 production is decreased foe each O2 consumed |

what are the 2 types |
volume of air moved in/out of lungs per time
Minute Ventilation: total rate Mv= Tv x RR VCO2 x K/PACO2 Alveolar Ventilation: corrects for dead space (Av= Tv-PDS x RR) |
|
what is the formula for minute ventilation
|
Mv= Tv x RR
|
|

|
what ventilation rate accounts for PDS (Vd) minute or alveolar
|
alveolar
Alv Vent: Tv-Vd x RR Alv Vent: VCO2 x K/PACO2 |
|
what is the ket relationship that is described by alv vent
|
the INVERSE relationship btwn alv vent and alveolar CO2
**when the ventilation rate is high we are removing lots of CO2 from alv and CO2 is low. When vent is low the CO2 builds up and is high |
|
if CO2 production is constant what determines CO2 in the alv
|
the ventilation rate
when the vent rate is high we have little CO2 when vent rate is low we have lots of CO2 built up |
|
what is the relationship graphically of CO2 in alv and alv vent rate at a constant CO2 production
|
we know there is an inverse relationship
*graphically its HYPERBOLIC |
|
what is the relationship btwn PACO2 (alv) and PaCO2 (arterial)
|
they are the same. remember the CO2 in the alv is the same as the CO2 in the blood
|
|
so were talking about alv vent
*at constant CO2 production we know that alv vent and CO2 in alv are inversely related (hyperbolic) *what happens if we change the CO2 prodiction |
if CO2 production doubles, Alv Vent will also double to keep alveolar CO2 constant at 40 mmHg
|
|
what is the usual amt of CO2 in the alv/arterial system? how is this kept constant when there is an increase in CO2 production
|
40 mmHg
alv vent rate increases to clear the excess CO2 that is being made |
|
when production of CO2 doubles what way does the curve shift?
|
right shift
**CO2 production doubles, Alv vent rate doubles, the CO2 in alveoli is constant |
|
what is FVC
|
its the amt of air forcible exhaled after maximal inhalation,
FEv1 is the amt exhaled in the first second |
|
what is the amt of air forcibly exhaled after maximal inhale
|
FVC
FEV1 is the amt blown out in the first second, its about 80% of total |
|
wht is FEV1/FCV
|
its the amt of air blown out after maximal inhale
**this gives us the ratio of waht % is blown out in the first second, its usually about 80% *if its less, obstructive, emphysema **if its more, restrictive, fibrosis |
|
when we look at FEV1/FCV in fibrosis what happens
|
its restrictive
the value is more than 80% the FVC is super decreased which gives us a larger ratio |
|
when we look st FEV1/FVC in asthma (emphysemis) what happens
|
obstrucitve
the value is less than 80% the amt of air expired in the first second is super decreased so the ratio is decreased |
|
if FEV1/FVC is increased what kind of disease, what value is altered
|
restrictive, fibrosis
**the lungs have a decreased FVC |
|
if FEV1/FVC is decreased what kind of disease, what value is altered
|
obstructive, asthma, emphysema
*the lungs have a decreased ability to exhale in the first second |
|

|
0.8 (80%)
|
|
what values tell us lung disease, which one distinguishes obstructive nad restrictive
|
RV/TLC: when elevated we have lung disease
FEV1/FCV: when its more than 80 its restirctive disease, less than 80 is obstructive **restrictive lowers FCV **obstructive lowers FEV1 |
