    Respiratory System Functions and Anatomy

    • External Respiration: Gas exchange between lungs and environment; air is inhaled, warmed, filtered, and moistened.
    • Internal Respiration: Gas exchange at the cellular level; oxygen enters cells while carbon dioxide exits, facilitated by diffusion.
    • Upper Respiratory Tract Components:
      • Nose: Filters, warms, and moistens air; contains nasal septum and turbinates to optimize surface area.
      • Pharynx: Serves as a passage for air and food; subdivided into nasopharynx, oropharynx, and laryngopharynx.
      • Larynx: Connects pharynx to trachea; contains vocal cords and is protected by the epiglottis to prevent food entry.
      • Trachea: Tube with C-shaped cartilage rings, leading to bronchi; lined with cilia and mucus to trap debris.

    Lower Respiratory Tract Components

    • Bronchial Tree:
      • Right bronchus is larger and more vertical, prone to aspiration; left bronchus is smaller and slightly horizontal.
    • Bronchioles: Smaller branches of bronchi leading to alveoli.
    • Alveoli: Main site of gas exchange; thin-walled and surrounded by capillaries; coated with surfactant to prevent collapse.

    Mechanics and Regulation of Breathing

    • Thoracic Cavity:
      • Contains lungs situated within the mediastinum; surrounded by pleura which produces serous fluid for lubrication.
    • Regulation of Respiration: Governed by the medulla oblongata and pons, influenced by chemoreceptors responding to pH and gas levels in the blood.

    Respiratory Assessment and Oxygen Therapy

    • Comprehensive assessment needed for patients with respiratory issues; crucial for managing acute and chronic conditions.
    • Subjective Data: Cough characteristics, shortness of breath (SOB) or dyspnea on exertion (DOE), and relief measures.
    • Objective Data: Observations of respiratory distress, chest movement, lung auscultation for abnormal sounds (e.g., wheezes, crackles).
    • Hypoxia symptoms include anxiety, disorientation, cyanosis, and clubbing of fingers as hypoxia progresses.

    Oxygen Therapy Essentials

    • Various devices available based on patient needs; nurse's competency directly affects patient outcome.
    • Flow rate ordered in liters per minute; the FiO2 indicates the concentration of oxygen provided.
    • Safety protocols include avoiding sources of combustion, proper storage of oxygen cylinders, and monitoring skin integrity when using devices.

    Lifespan Considerations

    • Normal arterial oxygen levels decline with age; older adults are more susceptible to skin irritation from oxygen devices.
    • Careful monitoring and adjustments in therapy may be required to avoid respiratory drive complications in patients with chronic lung issues.
