What effect do pleural effusion would have on ventilation?
effects depend upon volume, mild doesn`t have any effecet on lung but moderate to severe have compressive effect on lung tissue

How bronchial asthma effect on lung volume and capacity increase or decrease and why?
decrease -
Why does minute ventilation increase after exercise?
Improves Lung funtion
By what other names are lung perfusion scans and lung ventilation scans referred?
perfusion lung scan, aerosol lung scan, radionucleotide ventilation lung scan, ventilation lung scan, xenon lung scan, ventilation/perfusion scanning (VPS), pulmonary scintiphotography, or, most commonly, V/Q scan
What would be the effect of a pneumothorax (air in the intrapleural space) on the lungs and breathing?
The affected lung would collapse or not be able to expand fully, so lung ventilation would decrease.
Which of the following changes will accompany the loss of lung elasticity associated with aging?
Increase in residual volume
What is minute ventilation?
Minute ventilation is the total volume of air that is inhaled or exhaled in one minute. It is calculated by multiplying the tidal volume (amount of air moved in or out of the lungs in one breath) by the respiratory rate (number of breaths taken per minute). Minute ventilation is an important measure of lung function and respiratory health.
Radioactive material is injected or inhaled and images are recorded?
"Lung Scan V/Q"ventilation perfusion scan radioactive test of lung ventilation and blood perfusion throughout the lung capillaries (Lung Scan)
What is alveolar ventilation refers to?
Alveolar volume is lung capacity. Alveoli are the air sacs in the bronchioles. How much air the lungs hold during both inspiration and expiration is lung capacity which is alveolar volume. Hope this helps
How does the career of respiratory therapy related to the study of oxygen and lung volumes?
Respiratory technicians give treatments like nebulization to increase oxygen volume in the body. They also use various techniques to increase lung volume. The end goal is that patients breathe better.
Why the patient of pleural effusion should lie towards the side of the lung which is having pleural effusion?
Positioning the patient with pleural effusion on the affected side helps improve ventilation and blood flow to the more functional lung, aiding in better oxygenation. This position can also help re-expand the collapsed lung and promote drainage of the pleural effusion.
