Primary functions of obtaining oxygen and removing carbon dioxide
respiratory system
Tubes that filter and transport air and
Respiratory organs include
Microscopic air sacs where gases are exchanged
-Nose
-nasal cavity
Upper respiratory tract
-paranasal sinuses
-pharynx
, -Essential for exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide
-larynx
Lower respiratory tract -trachea
-bronchial tree
-lungs
end of each bronchial tree Alveolar duct
Alveolar duct leads to Alveolar sacs and then alveoli
Cillary Epithelial Cells Lining of Respiratory System
Cilia Moves the mucus and debris out of the airway
Any disease that interferes with gas exchange in the
Respiratory Disease lungs which can cause changes in the concentration of
oxygen and carbon dioxide in the blood
Chronic obstructive emphysema, chronic bronchitis, asthma (all cause
pulmonary disease (COPD) irreversible changed to RS)
A serious disease that destroys the alveoli and causes
Emphysema
breathing difficulties.
a condition in which the bronchi in the lungs are
Chronic Bronchitis constantly swollen and clogged with mucus. Triggered
by allergens,air pollutants or infections
Treatment for Chronic Bronchodilators (Anti-inflammatory agent)
Bronchitis
A chronic allergic disorder characterized by episodes of
Asthma severe breathing difficulty, coughing, and wheezing.
Caused by increased reactivity of trachea bronchial tree
-Respiratory gases
-antiallergic agents
Drugs to treat respiratory -bronchodilators
diseases -steroids
-antibiotics
-antitussive agents
Lack of oxygen in blood which can result in irreversible
Hypoxemia
damage to viral organs
, -Anxiety
-cyanosis
Signs/Symptoms of
-dyspnea
Hypoxemia
-tachycardia
-hypertension
Oxygen
Gases used in Respiratory 80% helium and 20% oxygen
Therapy Carbon Dioxide
Nitrous Oxide
Normal Arterial level of 80-100%
Oxygen Oxygen is non-flammable colorless
-Hypoxic conditions
-cardiac conditions
-apnea
Indication for use of -drowning
Oxygen -carbon monoxide poisoning
-trauma
-shock
-pneumonia
-Nasal catheters
-nasal cannula
-Oxygen mask
Methods of Oxygen
-oxygen tent or hood
Administration
-incubator
-tracheostomy
-nebulizer
1)Hypercapnia
Hazards of long term 2)Mucosal drying and infection
3)Retrolental Fibroplasia Blindness
80% Helium and 20% Used to treat Bronchiectasis,Status Asthmaticus and
Oxygen Emphysema
Carbon Dioxide
Chief Respiratory Stimulant -Used to treat Respiratory depression,carbon monoxide
poisoning and asphyxia and singltus (hiccups)
-Dyspnea
-increase chest movement
Adverse effects of CO2 -nausea
-systolic BP increases
-breath holding
