Unit 7 Lab Report
4-5: Did the deflated lung reinflate? Explain your answer.
4-6: Why did lung function in the deflated (left) lung return to normal after you clicked Reset?
Summary:
In this Activity, I learned/observed that: write 1-2 sentences on what you observed by doing this experiment – think “big picture”
SIMULATING VARIATIONS IN BREATHING
Activity 5: Exploring Various Breathing Patterns
Data: No chart necessary here, but you will need to use the data you get from running the experiments to answer the questions below
Questions: answer each question; use full sentences; ask instructor if you need help
5-1: What happens to PCO2 during rapid breathing? Explain your answer.
5-2: What happens to PCO2 during the entire time …show more content…
(Carefully examine the tracing for rate and depth changes; the changes can be subtle). Explain your observations.
5-4: What happened to the PCO2 during breath holding?
5-5: What happened to the breathing pattern when normal respirations resume?

In this Activity, I learned/observed that: write 1-2 sentences on what you observed by doing this experiment – think “big picture”
Activity 6: Comparative Spirometry
Data: No chart necessary here, but you will need to use the data you get from running the experiments to answer the questions below
Questions: answer each question; use full sentences; ask instructor if you need help
6-1: What do you think is the clinical importance of the FVC and FEV1 volume?
6-2: Why do you think the ratio of these two values is important to the clinician when diagnosing respiratory diseases?
6-3: FEV1/FEV x 100% = __________________________
Emphysema Breathing:
6-4: Is the FVC reduced or increased?
6-5: Is the FEV1 reduced or increased?
6-6: Which of these two changed more?
6-7: Explain the physiological reasons for the lung volumes and capacities that changed in the spirogram for this …show more content…
6-9: Is the FEV1 reduced or increased?
6-10: Which of these two changed more?
6-11: Explain the physiological reasons for the lung volumes and capacities that changed in the spirogram for this condition.
6-12: How is this condition similar to having emphysema? How is it different?
6-13: Emphysema and asthma are called obstructive lung diseases as they limit expiratory flow and volume. How would a spirogram look for someone with a restrictive lung disease, such as pulmonary fibrosis?
6-14: What volumes and capacities would change in this case, and would these values be increased or decreased?
6-15: In an acute asthma attack, the compliance of the lung is decreased, not increased as it was for emphysema, and air flows freely through the bronchioles. Therefore, will the FEV1/FVC percentage be less than normal, equal to normal or higher than normal?
Acute Asthma Attack Breathing with Inhaler Medication Applied
6-16: Is the FVC reduced or increased? Is it "normal"?
6-17: Is the FEV1 reduced or increased? Is it "normal"?
6-18: Which of these two changed
4-6: Why did lung function in the deflated (left) lung return to normal after you clicked Reset?
