hypersecretion of mucus
chronic productive cough for at least 3 consecutive months for at least 2 successive
years
3 layers of the bronchioles - answer- innermost layer
middle layer - lamina propria
outermost layer
Acute Kidney Injury - answer- Sudden decline in kidney function with a decrease in GFR
and an increase in plasma creatinine and BUN levels -results in oliguria
After air passes through the trachea where does it go? - answer- goes into the left or
right bronchi
Afterload - answer- the amount of resistance to open the semilunar valves and eject of
blood from the ventricle
alveolar hyperinflation - answer- When air is unable to move out of the alveolar like it
should due to bronchial walls collapsing around possible mucus plug thus trapping air
inside
anemia risk factors - answer- acute or chronic blood loss, increased hemolysis,
inadequate dietary intake or malabsorption, bone marrow suppression, age
angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) - answer- an enzyme that converts angiotensin I
to angiotensin II
Ascending infection - answer- - urethra to bladder, and then to kidney
- due to: bacteria from residual fecal contamination
Asthma - answer- Chronic disease due to bronchoconstriction and an excessive
inflammatory response in the bronchioles
average amount of preload? - answer- 120-130 mls

Bronchioles - answer- smaller passageways that originate from the bronchi that become
the alveoli
bronchitis - answer- inflammation of the bronchial tubes
cardiac reserve - answer- difference between resting and maximal CO; should be about
4-5x as high but does decrease 1% per year after age 30
