What Amendment discussed the need for a well-regulated militia?

What disease increases airway resistance?
Emphysema is a COPD, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, which means that there is poor airway due to resistance. The condition is characterized by a deterioration of the walls of the alveoli, which are the tiny air sacs that are needed for you to breath properly.
What does acetylcholine do to bronchioles?
Constricts bronchioles leading to increased airway resistance and decreased air flow
What are the four factors affecting airway resistance in the lungs?
there are four important factors that effecting the lung resistance . 1- lung volume 2- density and viscosity of the air breathed. 3- contraction of smooth muscles of the air way. 4- diameter of the airway.
How is blood pressure regulated in the short term?
Blood pressure can be regulated by counteracting fluctuations in the blood pressure by the cardiovascular system. This is done by altering the cardiac output and the peripheral resistance.
What is active airway?
An airway that is not blocked. If you can breathe easily, you have an active airway. If you are choking, you do not.
Emphysema is characterized by an increase in?
Increased airway resistance and reduced elastic recoil. Causes severe early dyspnea, scanty sputum, and hyperinflation.
What happened to the FEV1 percent as the radius of the airways was decreased?
FEV 1 (%) will decrease as the airway radius is decreased. FEV 1 (%) is the amount of air that can be expelled from the lungs in one second during forced expiration. If the airway becomes smaller, then the resistance to airflow will increase and FEV 1 (%) will become lower.
The A of the primary survey stands for airway?
Airway
What are the steps for airway in the ABC acronym?
Airway; open the airway is tip the head and check for breathing.
