GMS 6402 Block 4: Pulmonary Circulation Questions & Answers with complete solution │Verified 2024 100% of cardiac output goes to the lungs. - PRACTICE: How much of cardiac output goes to the lungs? 2. Apex of lung - Q: Tuberculosis bacterium prefer alveoli that have higher PaO₂ (i.e., relatively high levels of ventilation). Where would you see TB in the lungs: 1. Base 2. Apex 3. 3rd rib a) high In order to keep pulmonary pressure low, the pulmonary circulatory system is high ...

GMS 6402 Block 4: 13 Pulmonary Circulation Questions & Answers │Verified Solutions 2024 Describe how pulmonary edema affects the lungs - Water in alveoli washes away surfactant, causing increase in work of breathing and collapse of alveoli Collapse of alveoli stops ventilation but perfusion continues = shunting Describe normal V:Q levels - Normal Overall V/Q = 0.8 (V = 4.2 L/m / 5.5 L/min) However it is higher at the apex than at the base Describe the mechanisms that allow for the...

GMS 6402 Work of Breathing Questions and Answers with complete solution │Verified 2024 Based on theoretical estimates of air:water interface, how high should surface tension in the alveoli be without surfactant? - 50-70 dynes/cm (VERY high only overcome with very high pressures) Describe how lack of surfactant affects premies - Acute Respiratory Disorder Syndrome (ARDS) Low compliance, very high recoil, collapsed alveoli = requires great pressure generation to inflate lungs, but...
