A patient with pneumonia was referred to you. During auscultation, you noted rattling or bubbling sounds at the lower lung fields. This is referred to as?
Crackles
It is a conditions is considered that is restrictive lung disease with abnormal parenchyma
Tuberculosis
It increases with age?
Functional residual capacity
This will generate the greatest
positive intrathoracic pressure?
Blowing a trumpet
It refers to the increase in the numbers of RBC in individuals who lives in high altitude
Physiologic polycythemia
Dead space air:
airinconductive zone
A person with respiration of less than 10 breaths per
minute is said to be in
Bradypnea
Irregular respiration with variable depth with alternating
periods of apnea
Biot's
It refers to perfusion without
ventilation?
Shunting
You were treating a Diabetic patient who underwent a below knee amputation in preparation for prosthetic fitting and ambulation. You read in the chart that he has metabolic acidosis and while preparing him you noted that he was hyperventilating. Which of the following respiratory patterns can be observed?
Kussmaul's
Refers to the diffusion of bicarbonate ions from RBC's into the plasma and diffusion of chloride ions into the RBC's:
During the transport of CO2 into the lungs in the form of carbonic acid, what enzyme will covert it, into CO2 and H2O?
Carbonic anhydrase
Which of the following normally keeps the alveoli dry?
Surfactant
This reflex prevent overinflation of the lungs
Hering-Breuer reflex
You made the patient forcefully expire air after a normal expiration. This lung volume is called?
Expiratory reserve volume
A patient was referred to you while admitted in the hospital for physical therapy. You noted that his respiratory pattern has a gradual increase then followed by gradual decrease of respiration then a period of apnea. Which respiratory pattern can be observed in the patient? *
Cheyne-Stokes
statement about blood flow through the Lungs that is TRUE?
Pulmonary blood flow distribution is controlled by alveolar oxygen.
This condition is associated with diving and is described as massive numbers of microbubbles plugging the capillaries of the lungs resulting to dyspnea, severe pulmonary edema and sometimes death.
The chokes
This is TRUE about respiration and exercise?
Alveolar ventilation increases with exercise, Dilation of the capillaries increases the surface area for the diffusion of gases, Exercise improves ventilation-perfusion match.
The combination of the tidal volume and inspiratory reserve volume:
Inspiratory capacity
The combination of tidal volume, inspiratory reserve volume and expiratory reserve volume is also known as
Vital capacity
This affects total lung capacity?
Lung compliance
What is surfactant?
It is composed of phospholipid dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine
During heavy breathing, which of the following muscle groups help the diaphragm achieve rapid expiration?
Abdominal muscles
The amount of air that can be inspired over and above the tidal volume
3000ml
Which of the following can be classified as dead space air?
trachea
The volume that can be measured by spirometry
Expiratory reserve volume
After the forceful expiration, you noted that there is still remaining air in the lung. This is known as:
Residual volume
Harsh, high-pitched crowing sound
Stridor
total amount of new air that is moved to the respiratory passages each minute
Minute respiratory volume
statements best describe the Bohr Effect?
The presence of carbon dioxide decreases the affinity of oxygen to hemoglobin.
Which of the following is TRUE about the movement of gases in the respiratory system?
Gases move from an area of higher pressure to an area of lower pressure.
A patient who is in respiratory arrest will have which respiratory pattern?
Apnea
NOT part of the respiratory airway?
Lobar Bronchi
Refers to deep inspiration followed by a prolonged, audible expiration
Sigh
During the patient's next normal inspiration, you made him inspire some more until he no longer can. This extra volume of air that can be inspired over and above the normal tidal volume is called:
Inspiratory reserve volume
ventilation without perfusion?
Dead space
Which pulmonary adventitious sound can be heard when doing auscultation of an asthmatic patient in an acute exacerbation?
Wheezing
which of the following is lung compliance greatest? *
Expiration
The following are means of acclimatization EXCEPT?
