Summary Introduction
To determine:
The reason for declined vital capacity in old age.
Introduction:
The process of inhalation and exhalation is called respiration. A person inhaled 7 to 8-liter air per minute. The respiratory rate of humans at the time of birth is 30-60 breaths per minute, whereas 12-20 breaths per minute in adults.

- Please help me with these questions, more than one answer may be correct for each: 1) The peripheral chemoreceptors associated with ventilation A) drive down respiration rate as [H+] increases B) are not associated with [CO2] C) are located in the alveoli of the lungs D) are located in the aortic and carotid bodies E) drive up respiration rate as [O2] decreases 2) Imagine you are designing a new diuretic (a drug that increases urine production). You are going to do this by blocking sodium reabsorption. In which section of the nephron would it be most effective to block sodium reabsorption if you want to produce more urine? A) the ascending loop of Henle B) The proximal convoluted tubule C) the collecting duct D) the distal convoluted tubule E) the descending loop of Henlearrow_forwardAt approximately 1500hrs Mel rings his call bell. When you respond to the buzzer he says he feels ‘funny’, and thinks he is hypoglycaemic. You note he is clammy and sweating. You immediately take Mel’s blood glucose reading and it is 3.5 mmol/l. (a) Define hypoglycaemia. (b) Complete a list of your actions in this emergency scenario. Provide a rationale for each action.arrow_forwardUrine and blood samples were taken from four different patients and analyzed with the following results. 1. Based on the results obtained from the tests above, determine the condition for each patient. 2. Edward and Ariana were provided with injectable insulin. What would be the expected changes in the blood and urine glucose composition if they were injected with insulin?arrow_forward
- Bob is a 19-year old male, who is 6’3”, and weights 160lbs. You tested Bob’s 1.5-mile run time, and determined he was able to complete it in 6:49, with a post-run HR of 202 bpm. What are each of the following: a. Absolute VO2 max b. Relative VO2 max c. MET Level d. Calorie expenditure per minute e. Goal VO2 at 75% of VO2R (assume a resting VO2 of 3.5 ml/kg/min)arrow_forwardKaren is bulimic, a condition where she induces vomiting to avoid weight gain. When the doctor sees her, her weight is 89 pounds and her respiratory rate is 6 breaths/min. (Normal = 12/min.). Her blood HCO 3 - is 62 meq/L (normal 24-29). Her arterial blood pH is 7.61 (normal = 7.4) Her PCO 2 is 61 mm Hg (normal = 40mm). Why is she hypoventilating? A) Her PCO 2 is high, and the body monitors PCO 2 to control ventilation. B) Her O 2 must be low, because the body monitors O 2 to control ventilation. C) Her blood pH is basic, and the body monitors pH to control ventilation. D) Her blood bicarbonate is high, and the body monitors HCO3- to control ventilation.arrow_forwardCase #2: On a particularly busy day, a student taking Anatomy and Physiology does not have anything to drink from 9:30 am until 6:30 pm. Osmoreceptors in the brain detect the decreased level of water in the blood. These receptors send a signal to the hypothalamus/posterior pituitary, which stimulates the release of antidiuretic hormone (ADH). This hormone acts on the nephron tubules and collecting ducts in the kidney to increase reabsorption of water, which returns that water to the blood. This retention of water has the additional effect of decreasing urinary output. As the fluid levels in the blood stabilize, the release of ADH ends. Answer the FF: 1. What is the effector? 2. What is the efferent pathway? 3. This is an example of (positive / negative) How could you tell?arrow_forward
- Measuring Height, Weight, and Vital Signs The nurse asks you to obtain a complete set of vital signs for an adult client to whom you are assigned. The measurements are as follows: temperature 38.6°C (101.5°F), heart rate 104 beats/min, respiratory rate 22 breaths/min, and blood pressure 90/60 mm Hg. Which of these vital signs are of concern? What is your first action after collecting these vital signs?arrow_forwardCalculate the patient’s intake during your 12-hour shift in mL. IV fluids at 25mL/hr continuous Zosyn IV at 50mL/hr for 4 hours 4 oz of coffee 500mL of water 3 oz of apple juicearrow_forward* You obtain the vital signs: T 90, P 90, R 20 and BP 100/70.His weight is 130lb and BSA is 2.60 m2. After history and physical examination, the physician ordered an infusion. The order reads: a drug 100mg/m2 IVPB IN 250mL of Normal Saline infuse over 3hours.The drug is available in a vial labeled 60mg/ml. At what rate in mL/h should the pump be set? * Order: RL 375 mL over 3h. The tubing has a drop factor of 15gtt/ml. a) Calculate the initial flow rate in gtt/min. B)After 1hour, 170 have infused. Determine the adjusted flow rate so that the infusion can finish on time? * Michael weighs 220 pounds 5 ounces. What is his weight in miligram and kilograms?arrow_forward
- 1,000 mL of 0.9% NaCl is started at 1800 to infuse at 75 mL/hr. At 2000, the IV hourly rate is increased to 125 mL/hr per physican order. Parenteral intake is closed at 2200. Calculate the IV intake for this shift. Enter the numeral only (not the unit of measurement) in your answer.arrow_forwardWhile administering oxygen to an infant with Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) who is having a hypoxic episode, the practical nurse (PN) should implement which intervention? A Hold the infant in a knee-chest position. B Give a prescribed diuretic medication. C Position the infant in Trendelenburg. D Administer liquid acetaminophen drops (gtt).arrow_forwardMeasure the Intake and Output of Mr. De la Cruz for the 8-Hour shift and give conclusion if Intake & Output is proportionate or not. Mr. dela Cruz is a 67 year old male who has been admitted to the Medical ICU with a diagnosis of congestive heart failure (CHF). He is intubated and attached to a ventilator, with nasogastric tube attached at the L nostril, intravenous fluid (IVF) of D5 LR 1L x 12 hours, and foley catheter draining to a pale straw urine. He is monitored hourly for his vital signs as well as intake & output. Nurse Tina was assigned to take care of Mr. Dela Cruz and the following tasks transpired during her morning shift: After endorsement, Nurse Tina made her rounds to check on Mr. Dela Cruz. She took his vital signs, level of consciousness. His present IVF has a remaining amount of 600 cc & regulated the desired rate. She prepared the medications and osteorized tube feeding (OTF) all due at 8 am. She fed Mr. Dela Cruz with 200 ml of OTF and instilled 50 ml of…arrow_forward
