A 70 year old elderly woman is in the ER for difficulty breathing. It is…

- - - - cant clear airway
    - - decreased senstations to dyspnea
      - diminished ventilatory response to hypoxia and hypercapnia
  - - - blood from all areas of lungs are short on oxygen or hypoxic
        
        respond by tightening the blood vessels
  - - - breathing problems and lowers the level of oxygen in blood
- - - - cardiovascular system
        
        the heart has to be able to pump oxygenated blood and deoxygenated blood through the body
        
        same goal: to get oxygen to tissues and get CO2 out
        
        having pneumonia puts you at higher risk of heart attack
      - bring oxygen and nutrients to the cells
        
        too much CO2 not enough O2 leads to organ damage or failure
      - helps maintain homeostasis
      - carries the oxygenated and deoxygenated blood through arteries and veins
        
        wouldn't work without respiratory system
      - fast heartbeat
        
        bacteremia
        
        septic shock
    - - can lead to inflammatory responses
        
        result in close of airway or infection lead to severe pneumonia
      - fights infection
        
        a normal healthy person with a healthy immune system should be able to recover from pneumonia
  - - - tachypnea
    - - lots of mucus
    - - inflammation cause alveoli to fill with fluid or pus
- - - - lobar bronchi
        
        segmental bronchi
        
        smaller bronchi
        
        bronchiole
        
        submucosa
        
        mucosa
        
        muscularis
        
        lumen
        
        diameter influences resistance

    - - 2 lobes
        
        superior lobe
        
        inferior lobe
    - - 3 lobes
        
        middle lobe
        
        inferior lobe
        
        superior lobe
    - - visceral pleura
      - parietal pleura
      - pleura cavity
    - - at a constant temperature, the pressure (P) of a gas decreases of the volume (V) increases and vice versa
    - - the pressure exerted by each gas within a mixture of gases and its measured in mmHg
    - - states that a given temperature, the solubility of a gas in a liquid is dependent upon (1) the partial pressure of the gas in and (2) the solubility coefficient of the gas in the liquid
    - - fall in atmospheric pressure decrease partial pressure
