Lungs

Once cancer cells have entered your blood stream they are most likely to lodge, collect and grow in the organs that receive the greatest blood flow.

at the 2nd intercostal space (space below the 2nd rib)

pleural and pericardial

perhaps this question should read "What is a collapsed lung?"

breathing

bronchiectasis

how does these conditions that affect the lung and stomuch eg heartburn,stomach ulser,bronchitis asthma and pneumonia

the two main characteristics of normal lung tissue that may be affected in diseased individuals are either Compliance or Elasticity.

compliance is the characteristic of lung tissue that allows it to expand

elasticity is the characteristic of lung tissue that allows it go back to its former shape and size.

elasticity is usually affected in chronic obstructive conditions like emphysema

compliance is usually affected in restrictive lung dysfunctions like pulmonary fibrosis.

Because space on the left side is taken up by your heart. It's no that the right lung is bigger, more that the left one is smaller.

PICC lines are placed for several different reasons. One common reason is that the patient has very poor venous access and a peripheral IV cannot be obtained. A PICC line is then placed so that the patient can receive medications, blood, etc. Another common reason is that a patient may be receiving long-term antibiotic therapy. A PICC line may then be placed since a PICC can stay in longer than a peripheral IV.

Yes there is a lung silly band. My friend has a pink one.

you have to inhale some water to dissolve the tablet and then do a hand stand and do throat singing to get the water out or preferably take some more tablets

The heart pumps blood to different parts of the body through small tubes called blood vessels.

The human body has two circulatory systems.

Pulmonary Circulation and Systemic Circulation.

Pulmonary Circulation - blood flows from the heart to the lungs and then back from lungs to heart.

Systemic Circulation - blood flows from the heart to other organs in the body and back from other organs to the heart.

It can be done by attaching the BiPaP tubing to a t-piece with a whisper swivel on the other end of the t-piece and occluding the distal end of the whisper swivel. The patient connection of the t-piece attaches to trach. The only issue I have encountered with BiPAP to trach is that if the whisper becomes occluded the patient has no way to exhale which can cause death for a non-monitored patient if not discovered in time.

yes it can effect your lungs

Simple Squamous

The pressure is highest in the lungs on complete exhalation.

It means that 23% of the lungs are not functioning, normally from smoking. Because someone is 74 years old does not mean that they should suffer from reduced lung function.

Drugs related illnesses always involve breathing problems, so it's clear that drugs disturb the functioning of lungs.
