What is the deep muscle of the thorax that promotes the inspiratory phase of breathing?
The deep muscles of the thorax that promote inhaling are known as the diaphragm muscles. These are the muscles that are activated when a person has good posture and takes a deep breath.
Deep muscle of the thorax that promote the inspiratory phase of breathing?
The deep thorax muscles are the deep muscles of the thorax that promotes the inspiratory phase of breathing. When breathing the diaphragm contracts, producing a negative pressure, which forces are into the lungs.
What is the difference between stridor and wheeze?
wheeze can be inspiratory or expiratory but stridor is mostly inspiratory
Difference between inspiratory and expiratory muscles?
The amount of O2 inspired would be the same as CO2 expired only if the individual were burning strictly carbohydrates (1:1 respiratory coefficient). Respiratory coefficient= CO2 eliminated per O2 consumed. Because animals also burn fats and proteins, there is no longer a 1:1 ratio because these energy sources have greater O2 consumption vs CO2 production (0.7:1 for fats). Therefore, the decreased CO2 production will cause the expiratory V to be less than the inspiratory V.
What is the medical term meaning the amount of air that can be inspired above the tidal volume?
Inspiratory reserve volume is the volume you can inhale past the normal tidal volume.
What is the difference between time cycled and flow cycled ventilator?
time-cycled = inspiratory phase ends when the preset inspiratory time is reached flow-cycled = inspiratory phase ends when the preset flow rate is reached
What are the acute and chronic effects of exercise on Inspiratory and Expiratory residual volume?
ACUTE EFFECT - The inspiratory and expiratory volume decreases during exercise
What is the approximate volume of inspiratory reserve volume?
inspiratory reserve volume= expiratory reserve volume + Tidal Volume - Vital capacity
What is inspiratory pressure?
when you breath in and out up and down
What is inspiratory reverse volume?
Did you mean reserve volume?
What is a high-pitched inspiratory sound for the larynx?
stridor
Asthma has inspiratory dyspnea or expiratory dyspnea?
Expiraroty dyspnea (remember all pulmonary diseases have expiratory or mixed dyspneas and heart diseases are differentiated by inspiratory dyspneas)
