filtration of air, mucociliary ventilation defense mechanisms
clearance system, cough
reflex, reflex
bronchoconstriction, &
alveolar macrophages are
all what type of
mechanisms?
how well the lungs move alveolar compliance
reduced in COPD, smoking,
lung damage
located in the medulla, chemoreceptors
bifurcation of carotid
arteries, & aortic arch
respond to changes in pH
& send messages to the
lungs
respond very quickly in
healthy lungs
located in the lungs, upper mechanical receptors
airways, diaphragm, & chest
wall
stimulated by irritants &
stretching
keep the lungs from
overinflating
, Blood diagnostics like Hgb, Hct, & ABG
Sputum & cultures
what diagnostic tests are
used to test ventilation?
Chest XRay, CT, MRI, V/Q, angiogram, & PET scans
Bronchoscopy & mediastinoscopy
measures saturation of pulse oximetry
oxygen in blood
indications: sings/symptoms
of increased work of
breathing, confusion,
wheezing, rales
measures lung volume & air pulmonary function tests (PFTs)
flow
diffusion capacity (how
effectively gas travels from
lungs to blood)
pH, pCO2, pO2, HCO3, & % Arterial Blood Gases (ABGs)
saturation are all
parameters for what test?
the normal blood gas 7.35 - 7.45
range for pH?
the normal blood pCO2 between 35 and 45
range?
the normal blood HCO3 22 - 26
range?
the normal blood pO2 80 - 100
range?
>95%
the normal blood sO2
range?
the normal blood base +/- 2
excess is?
, mechanical
is ineffective airway
clearance a mechanical or
secretion/obstruction; interventions must revolve
chemical issue?
around airway clearance
mechanical
is ineffective breathing
pattern a mechanical or
interventions must revolve around ventilatory
chemical issue?
effort/effectiveness
is impaired gas exchange a chemical issue
mechanical or chemical
issue? interventions must revolve around administering O2
what do you immediately sit them up & put O2 on them
do if your pt is in
respiratory distress?
allergic & viral rhinitis, upper respiratory tract disorders

- people w/ history of Guillain-Barre
Who should NOT get the
- those who don't feel well (provider should decide if
flu vaccine?
get it or not)

can receive the vaccine)
bronchitis & pertussis are lower respiratory tract disorders
examples of ___ ___ ___
disorders
bronchitis
inflammation of the bronchi
