Lung physiology Types of airways: • Conducting: top of trachea to beginning of respiratory bronchioles: no alveoli and does not exchange gases with blood • Respiratory zone: extends from respiratory bronchioles down. This zone contains alveoli and is the region where gas exchange occurs with blood • Dead space: where air is supplied but no gas exchange takes place. This is the volume of air not contributing to ventilation • Approx 500ml • Where is airways resistance higher? The Peer Teaching Society is not liable for false or misleading information…
Gas Exchange In what order does air move through these structures? • Respiratory bronchioles → terminal bronchioles → alveolar duct → alveolar sacs • Terminal bronchioles → respiratory bronchioles → alveolar duct → alveolar sacs The Peer Teaching Society is not liable for false or misleading information…
Gas Exchange Layers of gas exchange • Layer of alveolar epithelium • Basement membrane of epithelial cells • Interstitial space • Basement membrane of capillary endothelium • Capillary endothelial cells • Red blood cell The Peer Teaching Society is not liable for false or misleading information…
Foetal Circulation • Respiratory system does not carry out physiological function of gas exchange until after birth • Umbilical vein = oxygenated, from placenta to foetus • Umbilical artery = deoxygenated, from foetus to placenta Foetal circulation: Shunts to bypass the lungs • Foramen ovale: connection between R and L atria to bypass pulmonary circulation so blood goes from RA to LA • Ductus arteriosus connects pulmonary artery and aorta to direct blood away from lungs/skip circulation in lungs • Oxygenated blood passes from placenta via umbilical vein to foetus • Ductus venosus: shunt blood in umbilical vein to inferior vena cava • Foramen ovale, ductus arteriosus close after birth The Peer Teaching Society is not liable for false or misleading information…
Foetal Circulation The Peer Teaching Society is not liable for false or misleading information…
Airway Tone The Peer Teaching Society is not liable for false or misleading information…
Oxygenation and dissociation curve • Oxygen binds reversibly to ______. • Each haemoglobin molecule can carry up to _______ oxygen molecules. • Haemoglobin is an allosteric protein, meaning the binding of oxygen to one ______ group increases/decreases the oxygen affinity within the remaining haem groups. The Peer Teaching Society is not liable for false or misleading information…
Dissociation Curve The Peer Teaching Society is not liable for false or misleading information…
Equations and lung compliance • Dalton’s law: pressure exerted by each gas in a mixture of gases is independent of the pressure exerted by the other gases. This is because gas molecules are normally so far apart that they do not affect each other. Each gas in a mixture behaves as though no other gases are present, so the total pressure of the mixture is simply the sum of the individual pressure known as partial pressures which are directly proportional to its concentration The Peer Teaching Society is not liable for false or misleading information…
Boyle’s law: pressure of a fixed amount of gas in a container is inversely proportional to container’s volume; • Henry’s law: amount of gas dissolved in a liquid is proportional to the partial pressure of gas with which the liquid is in equilibrium - at equilibrium the partial pressures of the gas molecules in the liquid and gaseous phases must be identical The Peer Teaching Society is not liable for false or misleading information…
•Alveolar gas equation • –PAO2 = PiO2 - PaCO2/R • –Allows calculation of alveolar partial pressure of oxygen • •Laplace’s law & action of surfactant • –The pressure within an alveolus is directly proportional to the surface tension and inversely proportional to the radius • –P = 2T/r • –Surfactant increases stability of alveoli by decreasing the surface tension The Peer Teaching Society is not liable for false or misleading information…
Lung compliance (CL): the change in lung volume caused by a given change in transpulmonary pressure; the greater the lung compliance, the more readily the lungs are expanded • DETERMINANTS OF LUNG COMPLIANCE: • Stretchability of the lung tissues: a thickening and thus a loss in stretchability of the lungs elastic connective tissues results in a decrease in lung compliance The Peer Teaching Society is not liable for false or misleading information…
Surface tension of the air-water interfaces of the alveoli: • Thus, the expansion of the lungs, requires energy not only to stretch the connective tissue of the lung but also to OVERCOME the surface tension of the water layer lining the alveol The Peer Teaching Society is not liable for false or misleading information…

Hypoxia and hypercapnia • Hypoxia: deficiency of oxygen at the tissue level4 types of hypoxia Hypoxaemia Anaemia or CO hypoxia Ischaemic hypoxia Histotoxic hypoxiaHypercapnia: an increase in the PCO2 in the arterial blood The Peer Teaching Society is not liable for false or misleading information…
- The most common type of hypoxia is hypoxic hypoxia or hypoxemia: in which the arterial partial O2 pressure is reduced • - The most common causes are: • 1. Hypoventilation - resulting in an increased arterial partial CO2 pressure: • - Failure to ventilate the alveoli adequately • - Caused by; muscular weakness (motor neurone disease), obesity & loss of respiratory drive (e.g. if you prevent the brain from accessing the lungs due to morphine for example) The Peer Teaching Society is not liable for false or misleading information…
2. Diffusion impairment: • - Results from the thickening of the alveolar membranes or a decrease in their surface area - causes the blood partial O2 pressure and alveolar partial O2 pressure to fail to equilibrate The Peer Teaching Society is not liable for false or misleading information…
3. Shunting : • - An anatomical abnormality of the cardiovascular system that causes mixed venous blood to bypass ventilated alveoli in passing from the right side of the heart to the left side e.g. ventricular septal defect (VSD) - Eisenmenger’ Syndrome • - An intrapulmonary defect in which mixed venous blood perfuses unventilated alveoli. Can occur in the bronchial arteries The Peer Teaching Society is not liable for false or misleading information…
4. -Ventilation-Perfusion mismatch - MOST COMMON CAUSE OF HYPOXEMIA: Occurs in chronic obstructive lung disease and many other lung disease • Arterial partial CO2 pressure may be normal or increased, depending on how much ventilation is reflexively stimulated • Can be caused by; a pulmonary embolus (blockage of an artery in the lung), asthma, pneumonia & pulmonary oedema The Peer Teaching Society is not liable for false or misleading information…
TYPE 1 RESPIRATORY FAILURE • pO2 (partial O2 pressure) is low • pCO2 (partial CO2 pressure) is low or normal • With Type 1 = 1 change = low pO2 then normal/low CO2 • Pulmonary embolism (form of ventilation-perfusion mismatch) most commonly causes Type 1 The Peer Teaching Society is not liable for false or misleading information…
- TYPE 2 RESPIRATORY FAILURE: • • pO2 is low • pCO2 is high • WithType2=2changes=lowpO2+highpCO2 • Hypoventilation causes Type 2 The Peer Teaching Society is not liable for false or misleading information…
