Mechanics of Breathing The exchange of oxygen for carbon dioxide Pulmonary ventilation is called breathing Due to changes in pressure that occur within the chest cavity Variation in pressure caused by cellular respiration and mechanical breathing movements

The Breathing Process Inhalation/inspiration –Causes movement of diaphragm enlarge the thoracic cavity* –Take a deep breath and hold it… does your chest rise?

Control of Breathing 1.Neural factors 2.Chemical factors Your breathing rate is primarily regulated by neural and chemical mechanisms. Respiration is controlled by spontaneous neural discharge from the brain to nerves that innervate respiratory muscles. The primary respiratory muscle is the diaphragm, which is innervated by the phrenic nerve. The rate at which the nerves discharge is influenced by the concentration of oxygen, carbon dioxide and the acidity of the blood.

Lung Capacity and Volume 1.Tidal volume 2.Inspiratory reserve volume (IRV) 3.Expiratory reserve volume (ERV) 4.Vital lung capacity 5.Residual volume 6.Functional residual capacity 7.Total lung capacity

Lung Capacity and Volume Lung volumes are directly measured; Lung capacities are inferred from lung volumes. The average total lung capacity of an adult human male is about 6 liters of air. Tidal breathing is normal, resting breathing; the tidal volume is the volume of air that is inhaled or exhaled in only a single such breath.

Types of Respiration Apnea –temporary cessation of breathing, especially during sleep. Dyspnea –difficult or labored breathing. Eupnea –is normal, good, unlabored ventilation, sometimes known as quiet breathing or resting respiratory rate. Hyperpnea –abnormally deep or rapid respiration

Types of Respiration Orthopnea –is shortness of breath (dyspnea) that occurs when lying flat, causing the person to have to sleep propped up in bed or sitting in a chair. Tachypnea –abnormally rapid breathing. Hyperventilation –a condition in which you suddenly start to breathe very quickly. Healthy breathing occurs with a healthy balance between breathing in oxygen and breathing out carbon dioxide.

Disorders of the Respiratory System - Infectious Causes Most resp disorders are caused by infections* Common cold Pharyngitis –Inflammation of pharynx Laryngitis –Inflammation of larynx Sinusitis –Inflammation of sinus Bronchitis and chronic bronchitis –Inflammation of the bronchial tubes, causes coughing

Disorders of the Respiratory System - Infectious Causes Influenza (flu) & URI- highly contagious* Pneumonia –lung inflammation caused by bacterial or viral infection, in which the air sacs fill with pus and may become solid. Inflammation may affect both lungs (double pneumonia), one lung (single pneumonia), or only certain lobes (lobar pneumonia). Tuberculosis (TB) –X-ray will show this in lungs, it means it has a dormant (temporarily inactive) form that can become active if resistance is lowered* –tx with med. *

Disorders of the Respiratory System - Infectious Causes Diphtheria –an acute, highly contagious bacterial disease causing inflammation of the mucous membranes, formation of a false membrane in the throat that hinders breathing and swallowing, and potentially fatal heart and nerve damage by a bacterial toxin in the blood. –It is now rare in developed countries because of immunization.

Disorders of the Respiratory System - Infectious Causes Pertussis (whooping cough) –a highly contagious respiratory tract infection. –In many people, it's marked by a severe hacking cough followed by a high-pitched intake of breath that sounds like "whoop." –Before the vaccine was developed, whooping cough was considered a childhood disease.

Perhaps the most important measure is placing your baby on his or her back to sleep.

RSV Respiratory syncytial virus A virus that causes infections of the lungs and respiratory tract. It's so common that most children have been infected with the virus by age 2. A very common virus that leads to mild, cold-like symptoms in adults and older healthy children. RSV often spreads quickly in crowded households and day care centers. The virus can live for a half an hour or more on hands. The virus can also live for up to 5 hours on countertops and for several hours on used tissues.

56
You can catch RSV if: 1.A person with RSV sneezes, coughs, or blows their nose near you. 2.You touch, kiss, or shake hands with someone who is infected by the virus. 3.You touch your nose, eyes, or mouth after you have touched something contaminated by the virus, such as a toy or doorknob.
