§ 1. Pulmonary ventilation Definition Principles of pulmonary ventilation *Driving force Direct~:pressure changes in alveoli Source ~: contraction of respiratory muscles Inspiratory muscles: Diaphragm, External intercostal muscle Expiratory muscles: Diaphragm, Ext- & Internal intercostals Accessoryrespiratory muscles
Typesof respiration Eupnea&Forcedbreathing (Deepbreathing) Abdominal&Thoracicbreathing Principlesof pulmonary ventilation Contraction (Relaxation)of inspiratory musclesExpansion(Reduction) of thoracic cavity(?)Distension(Recoil)of alveoli Intrapulmonary pressure()<(>) atmo- sphericpressureAir flows into(out of) the alveoli
Intrapulmonary pressure Inspiratoryphase: <1 atm Expiratory phase:>1 atm At the end of inspiration or expiration:=1 atm Intrapleural pressure Concept&Changes during respiratory cycle More negative as inspiratory processing Less negative as expiratory processing Measurement&Expression Direct & Indirect measurement 775 mmHg or 5 mmHg Always < 1 atm under static condition
Changes of intrapulmonary & intrapleural pressure during respiratory cycle
Formation IAP & PRF has opposite directions, so IPP=IAPPRF At the end of insp- & expiration, so IPP=ASPPRF If ASP=0, IPP=0PRF= PRF IPP: intrapleural pressure IAP: intra alveolar pressure PRF: pulmonary recoil force ASP: atmospheric pressure
Significance Physiological ~ Distend the lung & Make inspiration easier Promote venous & lymph return in the chest Pathological ~ (Pneumothorax) Collapse the lung & Make inspiration difficult Affect venous & lymph return Fatal in pulmonary & circulatory failure cases Importance Keep the interpleural cavity hermetically sealed
*Resistance to breathing Elastic ~ of the lung Elastic ~ & Compliance CL=1/RL=VL/PL(L/cmH2O) Static compliance (Cst) of the lung Sshaped curve, divided into 3 portions Flattened upper portion Steep middle portion Flattened lower portion Special compliance (Csp) Csp = CL/TLC
Source of elastic ~ of the lung Elastic tissue(1/3) &Alveolar surface tension(2/3) Pulmonary surfactant Nature:Alipoprotein,Main lip component is DPL Characteristics:Bothhydro-philia & -phobicity Source:Type II alveolar epithelial cells Distribution:Innersurface of the alveoli Action:Reducethe alveolar surface tension Significance:Decrease the inspiratory resistance, Stabilizethe volume & pressure in the alveoli, Preventpulmonary edema
Pulmonary recoil force in the big & small alveoli communicated each other
Elastic ~ of the thorax Characteristics of elastic resistance of the thorax
Non-elastic resistance Airway resistance (main) Definition & Calculation Factors affecting the airway resistance: Velocity of air flow: RAW VAF Type of air flow:Laminar flow & Turbulence Diameter of airway:Transmural pressure; Radiate traction by pulmonary parenchyma; Autonomic nervous system; Chemical factors
Pulmonary volume & capacity *Tidal volume (TV) *Inspiratory reserve volume (IRV) *TExpiratory reserve volume (ERV) *Residual volume (RV) *Inspiratory capacity (IC) *Functional residual capacity (FRC) *Vital capacity (VC) *Forced vital capacity (FVC) & Forced expiratory capacity (FEC) *Total lung capacity (TLC)
Pulmonary ventilation volume *Minute ventilation volume *Maximal (voluntary) ventilation & Percentage of ventilation reserve volume *Anatomical, Alveolar & Physiological dead space, Alveolar ventilation MVV=TV ×RF; AV=(TVDSV)×RF MVV=TV/2×2RF;AV=(TV/2DSV)×2RF MVV=2TV×RF/2;AV=(2TVDSV)×RF/2
§ 2. Respiratory gas exchange Mechanisms of gas exchange *Driving force: Partial pressure of O2 or CO2 *Mode: Diffusion of gas *Condition: Permeability of membrane Processes of gas exchange Po2 & Pco2in alveoli, blood & tissue(mmHg)
Factors affecting gas exchange * Diffusion rate of gas *Ventilation/perfusion ratio (V/Q) Definition & its normal value (0.84) IfV/Q > 0.84: Alveolar dead space V/Q < 0.84: Functional A-V shunt Anoxia occurs more easily than CO2 retention Affecting by gravity when a person stands
DN: § 3. Gas transport in the blood Oxygen transport *Forms of transport Physically diffusion & Combination with Hb *Characteristics of Hb combined with O2 Fast, reversible, need not enzyme, oxygenate with Fe2+, O2 combined with Hb is 4:1, S shaped oxygendissociation curve *Oxygen capacity, content & saturation *Cyanosis & carbon monoxide poisoning
*Oxygen dissociation curve Definition & why it is in S shaped Physiological advantages of S shaped curve The flattened upper portion (60~100 mmHg) The steep middle portion (40~60 mmHg) The steep lower portion (15~40 mmHg) Factors affecting oxygen dissociation curve Concept of P50, affinity to O2, right or left shift Factors:pH & Pco2(Bohr effect), temperature, 2, 3-DPG, others (Fe2+Fe3+, CO)
Carbon dioxide transport *Forms of transport Physically diffusion Combination with Hb HCO3 & HHbNHCOOH *Carbon dioxide dissociation curve *Influence of combination of Hb with O2 on CO2 transport (Haldane effect)
