Across
  1. 3. continuous musical sounds associated with airway narrowing or partial obstruction
  2. 4. expectoration of blood from the respiratory tract
  3. 9. portion of the tracheobronchial tree that does not participate in gas exchange
  4. 10. shortness of breath when lying flat; relieved by sitting or standing
  5. 13. vibrations of speech felt as tremors of the chest wall during palpation
  6. 14. abnormally rapid respirations
  7. 15. decrease in arterial oxygen tension in the blood
  8. 17. abnormal increase in clarity of transmitted voice sounds heard when auscultating the lungs
  9. 20. percentage of hemoglobin that is bound to oxygen
  10. 21. movement of air in and out of the airways
  11. 23. nonmusical, discontinuous popping sounds during inspiration caused by delayed reopening of the airways heard on chest auscultation
  12. 25. decrease in oxygen supply to the tissues and cells
  13. 26. volume of air inspired and expired with each breath during normal breathing
Down
  1. 1. gas exchange between atmospheric air and the blood and between the blood and cells of the body
  2. 2. continuous, high-pitched, musical sound heard on inspiration, best heard over the neck; may be heard without use of a stethoscope, secondary to upper airway obstruction
  3. 5. short, fine hairs that provide a constant whipping motion that serves to propel mucus and foreign substances away from the lung toward the larynx
  4. 6. direct examination of the larynx, trachea, and bronchi using an endoscope
  5. 7. temporary absence of breathing during sleep secondary to transient upper airway obstruction
  6. 8. whispered sounds heard loudly and clearly upon thoracic auscultation
  7. 11. blood flow through the pulmonary vasculature
  8. 12. abnormal change in tone of voice that is heard when auscultating the lungs
  9. 16. exchange of gas molecules (oxygen and carbon dioxide) from areas of high concentration to areas of low concentration
  10. 18. subjective experience that describes an uncomfortable or painful breathing sensation when either at rest or while walking or climbing stairs; also commonly referred to as shortness of breath
  11. 19. deep, low-pitched snoring sound associated with partial airway obstruction, heard on chest auscultation
  12. 22. temporary cessation of breathing
  13. 24. measure of the force required to expand or inflate the lungs
