Oxygen Needs – CAN questions
fully solved & updated
A sensitivity to a substance that causes the body to react
with signs and symptoms
allergy
Rapid breathing; respirations are more than 20 per minute
tachypnea
The lack or absence of breathing
apnea
Mucus from the respiratory system when expectorated
(expelled) through the mouth
sputnum
The collapse of a portion of a lung; It occurs when mucus
collects in the airway. Air cannot get to a part of the lung.
atelectasis
Slow, weak respirations at a rate of fewer than 12 per
minute
respiratory depression
Rapid and deep respirations followed by 10 to 30 seconds
of apnea
Biot's respirations
When breathing stops
Respiratory arrest
Slow breathing; respirations are fewer than 12 per minute
bradypnea
Measures the oxygen concentration in arterial blood
, pulse oximetry
Respirations gradually increase in rate and depth and then
become shallow and slow; breathing may stop (apnea) for
10 to 20 seconds
Cheyne-Stokes respirations
A harmful chemical or substance in the air or water
pollutant
Bluish color to the skin, lips, mucous membranes, and nail
beds
cyanosis
The amount (percent [%]) of hemoglobin containing
oxygen
oxygen concentration
Difficult, labored, or painful breathing
dyspnea
Sitting up and leaning over a table to breathe
Orthopneic position
Blood sputnum
hemoptysis
Very deep and rapid respirations
Kussmaul respirations
Breathing is rapid and deeper than normal
hyperventilation
Cells do not have enough oxygen
hypoxia
Breathing is slow, shallow, and sometimes irregular
