Function Function to supply the blood with oxygen so the blood can deliver oxygen to all the body parts
![Page 3: The Respiratory System By: Kristin Greene](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012918/554b16eeb4c90569098b4d8d/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
The process of respirationThe process of respiration “Respiration is achieved through the
mouth, nose, trachea, lungs, and diaphragm. Oxygen enters the respiratory system through the mouth and the nose. The oxygen then passes through the larynx and the trachea which is a tube that enters the chest cavity.
![Page 4: The Respiratory System By: Kristin Greene](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012918/554b16eeb4c90569098b4d8d/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Cont.Cont. In the chest cavity, the trachea splits into
two smaller tubes called the bronchi. Each bronchus then divides again forming the bronchial tubes. The bronchial tubes lead directly into the lungs where they divide into many smaller tubes which connect to tiny sacs called alveoli. The average adult's lungs contain about 300 million of these spongy, air-filled sacs that are surrounded by capillaries.
![Page 5: The Respiratory System By: Kristin Greene](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012918/554b16eeb4c90569098b4d8d/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Cont.Cont.
The inhaled oxygen passes into the alveoli and then diffuses through the capillaries into the arterial blood. Meanwhile, the waste-rich blood from the veins releases its carbon dioxide into the alveoli. The carbon dioxide follows the same path out of the lungs when you exhale.”

They’re paired organs in the chest that perform respiration.
Each human has two lungs.
Each lung is between 10 and 12 inches long
![Page 16: The Respiratory System By: Kristin Greene](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012918/554b16eeb4c90569098b4d8d/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

They transport oxygen from the atmosphere into the bloodstream, and excrete carbon dioxide from the bloodstream into the atmosphere.

• 90% of the lung is filled with air and only 10% is hard tissue.
• The lung is the largest organ in the body.
• Diseases that can affect the lungs are Emphysema, Pneumonia, Tuberculosis, Lung Cancer, and many more.

•Each day you take about 23,000 breaths.
•With every breath, your lungs add fresh oxygen to your blood, which then carries into your cells.

What is Bronchitis?
• An obstructive pulmonary disease caused by inflammation of the of the lungs
• It can be short term or long lasting
![Page 25: The Respiratory System By: Kristin Greene](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012918/554b16eeb4c90569098b4d8d/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Symptoms
• An expectorating cough
• Dyspnea (shortness of Breath)
• Fatigue and/or malaise
• Mild fever
• Mild chest pains
![Page 26: The Respiratory System By: Kristin Greene](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012918/554b16eeb4c90569098b4d8d/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Diagnosis
• Chest x-ray that reveals hyperinflation and increased bronchovascular markings
• Pulmonary function test that shows an increase in the lung’s residual volume and a decreased vitals capacity
![Page 27: The Respiratory System By: Kristin Greene](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012918/554b16eeb4c90569098b4d8d/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Diagnosis (cont.)
• Arterial blood gases that show a decreased level of oxygen in the blood and an increased level of carbon dioxide
• A sputum culture that has pathogenic microorganism and/or neutrophils
![Page 28: The Respiratory System By: Kristin Greene](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012918/554b16eeb4c90569098b4d8d/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)

Pathophysiology
• Short term bronchitis often follows a cold or infection. It may be viral or bacterial
• Long-lasting bronchitis last at least three months and is usually cause by environmental irritation of the bronchial tubes and is often caused by smoking
![Page 30: The Respiratory System By: Kristin Greene](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012918/554b16eeb4c90569098b4d8d/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Minor Treatments
• Rest
• Lots of liquids
• Aspirin
• Tylenol for fever
![Page 31: The Respiratory System By: Kristin Greene](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012918/554b16eeb4c90569098b4d8d/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Treatments
• Oxygen therapy
• Bronchodilator drugs
• Antibiotics
• Lung volume reduction surgery
![Page 32: The Respiratory System By: Kristin Greene](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012918/554b16eeb4c90569098b4d8d/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Prognosis
• Short bronchitis usually last ten to eleven days
• It is contagious, and starts out with a dry cough, which may be accompanied by a low grade fever, fatigue, and headache
![Page 33: The Respiratory System By: Kristin Greene](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012918/554b16eeb4c90569098b4d8d/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Prevention• Short term
– lots of rest– Lots of fluids
• Long-lasting– Eliminate exposure to cigarette smoke and
other environmentally hazard fumes

Emphysema
By Nishan Moghal
![Page 67: The Respiratory System By: Kristin Greene](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012918/554b16eeb4c90569098b4d8d/html5/thumbnails/67.jpg)
Background
• chronic (long-lasting or recurrent) lung disease
• usually caused by exposure to or inhalation of toxic chemicals and tobacco smoke
• loss of elasticity of lung tissue
![Page 68: The Respiratory System By: Kristin Greene](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012918/554b16eeb4c90569098b4d8d/html5/thumbnails/68.jpg)
Background (cont.)
• destruction of supporting structures of alveoli (sacs in the lungs that allow for gas exchange)
• destruction of capillaries that allow blood flow to alveoli
• collapse of smaller airways during expiration
![Page 69: The Respiratory System By: Kristin Greene](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012918/554b16eeb4c90569098b4d8d/html5/thumbnails/69.jpg)
Symptoms• shortness of breath (on exertion)• hyperventilation (arises in order to
maintain proper oxygen levels in the body)
• clubbing of the fingers (which is associated with many lung and heart diseases)
![Page 70: The Respiratory System By: Kristin Greene](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012918/554b16eeb4c90569098b4d8d/html5/thumbnails/70.jpg)

Process• toxins (such as smoke) inhaled• particles – trapped by hairs and
cannot be exhaled• inflammatory response results
-consists of enzymes such as elastase breaking down the alveolar walls
![Page 72: The Respiratory System By: Kristin Greene](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012918/554b16eeb4c90569098b4d8d/html5/thumbnails/72.jpg)
Process (cont.) • fewer but larger alveoli with
smaller surface areas-leads to decreased ability of alveoli to take up oxygen and lose carbon dioxide
• end result – irreversible and degenerative condition
![Page 73: The Respiratory System By: Kristin Greene](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012918/554b16eeb4c90569098b4d8d/html5/thumbnails/73.jpg)
Healthy Lung• elastic
• clean
• many alveoli with large surface areas
• healthy capillaries
• clear airways
![Page 74: The Respiratory System By: Kristin Greene](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012918/554b16eeb4c90569098b4d8d/html5/thumbnails/74.jpg)
Emphysema Lung• loss of elasticity• filled with toxins
from tobacco smoke• fewer alveoli with
smaller surface areas
• destroyed capillaries• blocked airways
![Page 75: The Respiratory System By: Kristin Greene](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012918/554b16eeb4c90569098b4d8d/html5/thumbnails/75.jpg)
Prevention and Treatment
• no smoking
• avoiding other lung irritants
• supplemental oxygen is taken by patient
• lung transplant (very dangerous operation)
![Page 76: The Respiratory System By: Kristin Greene](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012918/554b16eeb4c90569098b4d8d/html5/thumbnails/76.jpg)

So What Exactly is Lung Cancer?
Lung cancer- carcinoma of the lungs; one of the most common forms of cancer
aka an uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells in one or both of the lungs
![Page 91: The Respiratory System By: Kristin Greene](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012918/554b16eeb4c90569098b4d8d/html5/thumbnails/91.jpg)
Strictly Statistics
More than 87% of lung cancer cases are smoking related
13% of lung cancer is caused by things such as asbestos, and radon gas
More Americans in 2005 died from lung cancer than any colon/rectal, breast, and prostate cancer
Between 1960 and 1990, deaths from lung cancer in women increased more than 400%
![Page 92: The Respiratory System By: Kristin Greene](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012918/554b16eeb4c90569098b4d8d/html5/thumbnails/92.jpg)
More Statistics
Lung cancer kills more African Americans than any other cancer
Both African American men and women have a higher rate of getting lung cancer than any other ethnicity
After abstaining from smoking for at least 10 years you decrease your chance of developing lung cancer anywhere from 20 to 50%
![Page 93: The Respiratory System By: Kristin Greene](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012918/554b16eeb4c90569098b4d8d/html5/thumbnails/93.jpg)
Fun Facts
Today we can detect changes in the cells of the base lining of the lungs from normal to precancerous (dysplasia)
The addiction to nicotine can be compared to the addiction to heroine or even stronger
There is currently no way to screen and see if a person has lung cancer until late stages
There is a lot of discussion about whether or not marijuana causes lung cancer, its still undecided
![Page 94: The Respiratory System By: Kristin Greene](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012918/554b16eeb4c90569098b4d8d/html5/thumbnails/94.jpg)
Prevention
Not smoking Daily exercise Low fat high fiber diet Moderate if any alcohol consumption
![Page 95: The Respiratory System By: Kristin Greene](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012918/554b16eeb4c90569098b4d8d/html5/thumbnails/95.jpg)
Non Small Cell Lung Cancer
Accounts for 80% of all cancer cases - Squamos Cell Carcinoma– forms in
bronchial tubes *more prevalent in men*
-Adenocarcinoma- forms in mucus glands *more prevalent in women and non-smoking individuals
Bronchioalveolar- forms near the lungs’ air sacs
![Page 96: The Respiratory System By: Kristin Greene](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012918/554b16eeb4c90569098b4d8d/html5/thumbnails/96.jpg)
More non-small cell lung cancer
Large-Cell Undifferentiated Carcinomas-near edges of lungs, spreads rapidly, and sometimes spreads by the time diagnosed
![Page 97: The Respiratory System By: Kristin Greene](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012918/554b16eeb4c90569098b4d8d/html5/thumbnails/97.jpg)
Small Cell Lung Cancer
20% of all lung cancers, multiply more rapidly than all other cancers and form large tumors that can spread throughout the body, smoking is almost always the cause of small cell cancer
![Page 98: The Respiratory System By: Kristin Greene](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012918/554b16eeb4c90569098b4d8d/html5/thumbnails/98.jpg)
Surgical Treatments
Segmental Resection (wedge resection)- removes only a small part of the lung that the tumor is isolated in
Lobectomy- the surgical removal of an entire lobe of the lung
Pneumonectomy- the surgical removal of an entire lung
![Page 99: The Respiratory System By: Kristin Greene](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012918/554b16eeb4c90569098b4d8d/html5/thumbnails/99.jpg)
Non-Surgical Treatments
Chemotherapy- drugs given through the mouth or injection to kill cancer
Radiation Therapy- the use of an x-ray to kill or shrink cancer cells
Photodynamic Therapy (PDT)- a special chemical that is injected into the body and absorbed by all cells
Clinical Trials- any type of new tests that may treat the disease

Your lungs help you to breath. Take a big breathe and you will make your lungs work really hard. Lungs help you to breathe in nice clean air. And breathe out old air.
Blood is a really bright red liquid. It runs around your body, helping it to work properly.
It also helps stop some nasty bugs
