Across
- 2. Tube that is used to mechanically ventilate the patient, bypass upper airway obstruction, or remove tracheobronchial secretions.
- 7. Involves gas exchange between the atmospheric air in the alveoli and the blood in capillaries
- 8. Process by which oxygenated capillary blood passes through body tissues
- 12. Total amount of air inhaled and exhaled with one breath
- 14. Inability to adequately fill with air during inhalation - incomplete lung expansion or the collapse of alveoli - prevents pressure changes and the gas exchange by diffusion of the lungs
- 15. Process of moving respiratory gases into and out of lungs
- 16. Inadequate tissue oxygen with adequate blood supply
Down
- 1. Movement of gases or particles from areas of higher pressure/concentration to lower pressure/concentration
- 3. The amount of air left in the lungs at max expiration
- 4. Airway used to keep tongue clear of airway and permit suctioning of secretions. Often use while waiting for patient to regain consciousness
- 5. Breathing technique where the patient inhales
- 6. Tube that delivers oxygen by mechanical ventilation, to suction secretions, or bypass upper airway obstructions.
- 9. Breathing technique where one hand is placed on the stomach, and one on the chest.
- 10. Refers to the ways with which the lungs can be inflated and effects lung volume
- 11. Result of any impediment or obstruction that air meets as it moves through the air way - any process that changes the bronchial diameter or width
- 13. Max amount of air exhaled after max inspiration
