Loss of elasticity and rupture of alveolar walls are typical problems associated with?
EMPHYSEMA
With which disorder do the alveolar walls lose their elasticity become over-inflated and eventually rupture?
This condition is known as emphysema. It is characterized by damage to the alveoli in the lungs, leading to a loss of elasticity in the alveolar walls. Over time, this can result in the alveoli becoming over-inflated and eventually rupturing, causing difficulty breathing and other respiratory issues.
What is the loss of alveolar surface area called?
The loss of alveolar surface area is referred to as "alveolar destruction" or "alveolar collapse." This condition can occur in various respiratory diseases, such as emphysema, where the walls of the alveoli are damaged, leading to a reduction in gas exchange efficiency. This loss impairs oxygen uptake and carbon dioxide removal, contributing to respiratory complications.
What causes loss of voice?
laryngitis http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmedhealth/PMH0002361/
Laryngitis belongs to what body system?
Laryngitis is an inflammation of the tissues of the larynx which is part of the respiratory system.
Condition characterized by fibrosis of the lungs and an increase in size of the alveolar chambers?
Emphysema generally is characterized by such symptoms, as well as: - Patients becoming barrel-chested due to air retention - Alveolar wall destruction - Chronic lung inflammation - Loss of lung elasticity - Collapse of bronchioles on expiration As well as those already stated!
What would you lose if you had laryngitis?
If you had laryngitis, you would lose your voice or experience hoarseness, difficulty speaking, and a sore throat. Laryngitis is inflammation of the voice box (larynx) that can make your voice sound raspy or weak.
What is loss of lens elasticity?
Presbyopia
