What else can I help you with?
What is the medical term meaning hyperinflation of air sacs with destruction of alveolar walls?
Emphysema or Pulmonay emphysema
When walls of alveoli deteriorate and lose their elasticity?
Emphysema.
What causes respiratory distress that accompanies emphysema?
Break down in aveolia walls
Loss of elasticity and rupture of alveolar walls are typical problems associated with?
EMPHYSEMA
Hyperinflation of alveoli with damage to alveolar walls?
This describes a condition called emphysema, a type of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). In emphysema, the alveoli become overinflated and the walls between them are damaged, leading to reduced oxygen exchange and shortness of breath. Common causes include smoking, air pollution, and genetics.
What is characterized anatomically as the permanent abnormal enlargement of distal airway spaces and destruction of the alveolar walls?
This condition is characterized by permanent enlargement of the distal airway spaces and destruction of alveolar walls, resulting in reduced gas exchange surface area in the lungs. This leads to air trapping, decreased lung elasticity, and difficulty breathing. It is known as emphysema.
What is the difference between overinflation and emphysema?
i think as far as i read emphysema means enlargment of alveolar walls and destruction whereas overinflation is just enlargment....without destruction.
Soap can dissolve the outer walls of bacterial?
cells
Destruction of the walls of the alveoli producing abnormally large air spaces that remain filled with air during exhalation?
This condition is known as emphysema. Emphysema is a type of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) that results in the destruction of the walls of the alveoli, leading to decreased gas exchange in the lungs and difficulty breathing. It is commonly caused by smoking and results in symptoms such as shortness of breath and coughing.
Is a destructive disease of the alveoli and the adjacent capillary walls resulting in chronic dyspnea cough and the characteristic barrel chest?
Emphysema
What is a destructive disease of the alveoli and the adjacent capillary walls resulting in chronic dyspnea cough and the characteristic barrel chest?
Emphysema
What type of tissue is found in the walls of the arteries that leave the heart but not in the walls of the large veins that enter the heart?
elastic tissue
