Term
| Medullary Respiratory Dorsal Groups |
|
Definition
| Stimulate diaphram for inspiration |
|
|
Term
| Medullary Respiratory Ventral Groups |
|
Definition
| stimulate intercostal and abdominal muscles for expiration |
|
|
Term
| Pontine/Pneumotaxic Respiratory Group |
|
Definition
| Switching between inspiration and expiration |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| cessation of breathing can be overridden by respiratory center |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| causes decrease in CO2 leads to vasodilation and decreased BP can lead to fainting |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| carbon dioxide, oxygen, PH |

|
Definition
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| determined by how actively respiratory muscles are stimulated by respiratory center |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| determined by how long the medullary dorsal group (inspiration) is active |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| in medulla oblongata, connected to respiratory system, sense changes in CO2 |
|
|
Term
| peripheral chemoreceptors |
|
Definition
| in carotil and aortic bodies, connected to respiratory center by CN 9 & 10, respond to pH changes |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| carotid & aortic chemoreceptors increase stimulation of respiratory center |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| abnormal decrease in oxygen levels |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| limits degree of inspiration and prevents over inflation of lungs. Most important in infants, only adults during exercise |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Ventilation increased abruptly at onset of exercise
Ventilation increased gradually after the immediate increase |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| highest level of exercise without causing significant change in pH. When exceeded lactic acid and pain occurs |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| increased vital capacity, tidal volume, gas exchange, and minute ventilation. Decreased residual volume. Greater blood flow through the lungs |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| coughing, dyspnea, wheezing, chest tightness. Airway inflammation immune response caused by release of interleukins, IgE, and inflammatory cells. |
|
|
Term
| Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease |
|
Definition
| Chronic bronchitis and emphysema, decreased ability to force air out of the lungs, smokers, dyspnea, coughing, infections, leads to respiratory failure |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| caused by mycobacterium tuberculosis, fever, night sweats, weight loss, coughing, spitting up blood, treated with antibiotics |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| leading cause of death in NA, 90% from smoking |
|
|
Term
| carbon monoxide poisoning |
|
Definition
| binds to hemoglobin, prevents O2 from binding |
