8There are basically two types of breathing: costal (thoracic) breathing and diaphragmatic (abdominal) breathing

9Costal - Abdominal breathing
- AVerdadero

10Diaphragmatic (thoracic) breathing

11Costal - (thoracic) breathing

12Diaphragmatic - (abdominal) breathing

13Respiration is controlled by respiratory centres in the medulla oblongata and the pons of the brain
- AVerdadero
- BFalso
14Respiration is controlled by respiratory centres in the medulla oblongata and the frontal lobe of the brain
- AVerdadero
- BFalso
15Respiration is controlled by respiratory centres in the medulla oblongata and the pons of the brain, and by chemoreceptors located centrally in the medulla and peripherally in the carotid and aortic bodies. These centres and receptors respond to changes in the concentrations of oxygen (O2), carbon dioxide (CO2) and hydrogen (H+) in the arterial blood.
- AVerdadero
- BFalso
16The rate, depth, rhythm, quality and effectiveness of respirations should be assessed.
- AVerdadero
- BFalso
17Factors affecting respirations (select 6)
- ATemperature
- BExercise
- CStress
- DLowered oxygen concentration at increased altitudes
- EMedications
- FIncreased intracranial pressure
- GRelaxation
18During a normal inspiration and expiration, an adult takes in about 500 mL of air. This volume is called the tidal volume
- AVerdadero
- BFalso
19Body position also affects the amount of air that can be inhaled.
- AVerdadero
- BFalso
20Respiratory rhythm refers to the regularity of the expirations and the inspirations.
- AVerdadero
- BFalso
21Respiratory quality, or character, refers to those aspects of breathing that are different from normal, effortless breathing
- AVerdadero
- BFalso
22During ventilation, oxygen and carbon dioxide diffuse across the alveolar capillary membrane.
- AVerdadero
- BFalso
23Oxygen is carried in the blood as either dissolved oxygen or as oxygen bound to haemoglobin in red blood cells.
- AVerdadero
- BFalso
24Oxygen is carried in the blood as either dissolved oxygen or as oxygen bound to the nucleus in red blood cells.
- AVerdadero
- BFalso
25Factors affecting oxygen saturation readings:
[blank_start]Haemoglobin[blank_end]: If the haemoglobin is fully saturated with oxygen, the SpO2 will appear normal even if the total haemoglobin level is low. Thus, the person could be severely anaemic and have inadequate oxygen to supply the tissues but the pulse oximeter would return a normal value.
[blank_start]Circulation[blank_end]: The oximeter will not return an accurate reading if the area under the sensor has impaired circulation, such as occurs in peripheral vascular disease or if a person is very cold.
Activity: Shivering or excessive movement of the sensor site may interfere with accurate readings.
Dark-coloured nail polish or discolouration of the nail bed: False readings typically arise when a person is wearing dark-coloured nail polish or if the nail bed is discoloured by a subdermal haematoma or other sources of nail bed discolouration, such as nicotine stains.
[blank_start]Carbon monoxide poisoning[blank_end]: Pulse oximeters cannot discriminate between haemoglobin saturated with carbon monoxide versus oxygen. In this case, other measures of oxygenation are needed.- AHaemoglobin
- BCirculation
- CCirculation
- DHaemoglobin
- ECarbon monoxide poisoning
- FCirculation
26Arterial blood pressure is a measure of the pressure exerted by the blood as it flows through the arteries.
- AVerdadero
- BFalso
27systolic pressure is the pressure of the blood as a result of contraction of the ventricles; that is, the pressure of the height of the blood wave.
- AVerdadero
- BFalso
28Diastolic pressure is the pressure when the ventricles are at rest.
- AVerdadero
- BFalso
29The [blank_start]systolic[blank_end] pressure is the pressure of the blood as a result of contraction of the ventricles; that is, the pressure of the height of the blood wave. The [blank_start]diastolic[blank_end] pressure is the pressure when the ventricles are at rest.
- Asystolic
- Bdiastolic
- Cdiastolic
- Dsystolic
30Blood pressure is measured in millimetres of mercury
- AVerdadero
- BFalso
31An elevated blood pressure of unknown cause is called primary hypertension. An elevated blood pressure of known cause is called secondary hypertension.
- AVerdadero
- BFalso
32Hypotension is a blood pressure that is below normal; that is, a systolic reading consistently between 85 and 110 mm Hg in an adult
- AVerdadero
- BFalso
33Hypertension is a blood pressure that is below normal; that is, a systolic reading consistently between 85 and 110 mm Hg in an adult
- AVerdadero
