Across
- 2. large membranous tube reinforced by rings of cartilage, extending from the larynx to the bronchial tubes and conveying air to and from the lungs
- 6. the volume of ventilated air that does not participate in gas exchange
- 10. a hyaline cartilage ring which fully encircles the trachea and composes the inferior-most boundary of the laryngeal skeleton
- 13. lung inflammation caused by bacterial or viral infection, in which the air sacs fill with pus and may become solid
- 16. spasm of the vocal cords, may be caused by too rapidly administering ketamine
- 17. weight for height at the lowest risk of mortality, use to calculate tidal volume
- 18. the passive flow of oxygen into the alveoli during apnea
- 19. bi-product of respiration and gas exchange
- 20. a medical procedure in which a tube is placed into the trachea through the mouth or nose
- 22. a noisy or high-pitched sound from upper airway with breathing
Down
- 1. an ultrashort-acting, non-barbiturate hypnotic intravenous anesthetic agent
- 3. blood in the pleural space
- 4. non-depolarizing paralytic agent used in RSI
- 5. air or gas in the pleural space
- 7. 6-8 cc of ideal body weight
- 8. the narrowing of the airways in the lungs (bronchi and bronchioles)
- 9. a ligament in the neck. It connects the cricoid cartilage to the thyroid cartilage
- 11. an airway adjunct used to maintain or open the airway by stopping the tongue from covering the glottic opening
- 12. Upper airway bacterial infection usually notable by a seal-like bark
- 14. any of the many tiny air sacs of the lungs which allow for rapid gaseous exchange
- 15. a flap of cartilage at the root of the tongue, which is depressed during swallowing to cover the opening of the trachea
- 21. a U-shaped bone in the neck which supports the tongue
