1. Know the RESPIRATORY blood The deoxygenated blood shoots down from the
right atrium
flow the right ventricle. The heart then pumps it out of the
right ventricle and into the pulmonary arteries to begin
pulmonary circulation. The blood moves to the lungs,
exchanges carbon dioxide for oxygen, and returns to
the left atrium.
2. Know the cardiac
anatomy blood flow 1-6 deoxygenated blood
1. Inferior/superior vena cava
2. Right atrium
3. Triscupid valve
4. Right ventricle
5. Pulmonic valve
6. Pulmonary artery
7. Lungs
8. Pulmonary veins
9. Left atrium
10. Mitral valve
11. Left ventricle
12. Aortic valve
13. Aorta
3. Respiroty physiology: 8-13 all oxygenated blood
ventila- tion
ventilation is the process of moving gasses in and out of
4. Respiroty physiology: the lungs or in and our of the alveoli (if we wanna
diffu- sion get specific)
dittusion that is responsible for moving respiratory gasses

clot have trouble with perfusion)
6. Respiroty physiology: work The work of breathing is the ettort required to expand and
of breathing contract the lungs.
7. Respiroty physiology: -So lung volumes, part of that is lung compliance
lung volume
-how much volume means, how much oxygen we can
hold in the lung and that depends on lung compliance
or the ability of the lungs to distend or expand. And it
depends on an increased airway resistance, like an
asthma and the increased use of those accessory muscle
also increase the work of breathing and that result in
increased energy expenditure.
-Increased work of breathing- if someone lungs are not
com- pliant, meaning harder for them to inflate and
deflate, we're gonna have increased respiratory rate,
increased metabolic rate and the need for more oxygen
-normal lung volumes are determined by age, gender,
and height
-clients with emphysema and COPD, anyone w. Lung
diseases can most often have a decreased lung
compliance.
Lung compliance
-ability of the lungs to distend or expand
-airway resistance
