  • 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:
    air in conductive 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:
    Cloride shift, Hamburger phenomenon, Lineas phenomenon
  • 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.

    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
