Structure and Function The human respiratory
system allows one to obtain oxygen, eliminate carbon dioxide.
Breathing consists of two phases, inspiration and expiration Inspiration- the process
of taking in air Expiration- the process
of blowing out air

Objectives
The process of moving air in and out of the lungs.

External RespirationExternal Respiration
Air from the outside environment enters the nose or mouth during inspiration (inhalation).
The Nose
•Also called external nares•Divided into two halves by the nasal septum•Contains the paranasal sinuses where air is warmed
•Contains cilia which is responsible for filtering out foreign bodies

PharynxPharynx
Also known as the throat is a passageway for both air and food
Three Sections of the Pharynx
Nasopharynx -contains the pharyngeal tonsils (adenoids) which aid in the body’s immune defense
Oropharynx-back portion of the mouth that contains the palatine tonsils which aid in the body’s immune defense
![Page 14: Bellringer 9/24/2014](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062408/56813234550346895d9899e9/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
14
EpiglottisThe epiglottis, a movable flap of cartilage that covers the opening to the larynx (voice box) prevents food from entering the larynx during swallowing.
Occasionally, a person may swallow and inhale at the same time so some food may enter the larynx and choking occurs.
Aspiration occurs when food or fluid enters the lung instead of the stomach.
![Page 15: Bellringer 9/24/2014](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062408/56813234550346895d9899e9/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

•Also known as the windpipe
•Connects the larynx to the right and left bronchi

Internal RespirationInternal Respiration
Air from the bronchi travels to the bronchioles then to the tiny air sacs (alveoli) which connect to lung capillaries.
alveolus
Oxygen and carbon dioxide are exchanged and oxygen is delivered to the body cells.
capillaries

LungsLungs
•Consist of a right and left lobe
•Covered by a double layer of membrane that makes movement in the thoracic cavity easier. The outer layer is the parietal pleura and the inner layer is the visceral pleura
•The space between the two pleurae is called the pleural cavity
•Pleurisy occurs when there is friction inside the pleural cavity. Very painful
![Page 19: Bellringer 9/24/2014](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062408/56813234550346895d9899e9/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

Inhale/ExhaleThe passage of air from the external environment to the lung capillaries, bloodstream and out consists of one inhalation and one exhalation.
![Page 20: Bellringer 9/24/2014](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062408/56813234550346895d9899e9/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

Diagnostic, Procedural & Laboratory Tests
Methods Used to Diagnose Respiratory Disorders:
•Auscultation
•Assessing respiratory rate
•Percussion
•Sputum analysis
Normal Adult respiratory rate is 12 to 20 respirations per minute.

Abnormalities/MassesAbnormalities such as masses and restricted blood flow within the lungs can be detected via:
•Chest x-rays•MRI•Lung scans Structures of the
respiratory system can be observed via:
•Endoscopy •Bronchoscopy

Upper respiratory infection is a term that covers an infection of some or all of the respiratory tract.
Other Conditions:
•Croup•Diptheria
•Epistaxis•Rhinorrhea

Chronic Obstructive Puhttp://s.ytimg.com/yts/img/favicon-vfldLzJxy.ico Disease
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a term for any disease with chronic obstruction of the bronchial tubes and lungs such as:
•Emphysema•Chronic Bronchitis
Asthma causes narrowing of the bronchi leading to dyspnea, wheezing and coughing.
Normal bronchiole
Asthmatic bronchiole, showing constriction
![Page 30: Bellringer 9/24/2014](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062408/56813234550346895d9899e9/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)

HemoptysisHemoptysis
Lung or bronchial hemorrhage that results in the spitting of blood.
Cystic Fibrosis
Disease of the exocrine glands that causes secretion of abnormally thick mucus which leads to chronic obstruction.
AtelectasisCollapsed alveoli leading to collapse of a lung or part of a lung.
Pneumonia
Acute infection of the alveoli.
![Page 31: Bellringer 9/24/2014](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062408/56813234550346895d9899e9/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Pathology• TB: Pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) is a contagious
bacterial infection that involves the lungs. It may spread to other organs.
• ARDS: Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a life-threatening lung condition that prevents enough oxygen from getting to the lungs and into the blood.
• Lung Cancer: Lung cancer is cancer that starts in the lungs. The lungs are located in the chest. Most lung cancer begins in the cells of the bronchi.
