| What is supported by the nine areas of the cartilage and connects the pharynx with the trachea? | Larynx. |
| What is the largest area of cartilage that is composed of two fused plates? | Thyroid cartilage or Adam’s apple. |
| Where is the local cords contained? | In the larynx. |
| The entire structure of the trachea is lined with what? | Mucous membranes. Tiny cilia. |
| The bronchioles are divided into smaller groups callled? | Terminal bronchioles or alveolar ducts. |
| The lungs receive their blood support from the heart through what? | Pulmonary arteries. |
| What do you call when there is too much serious secretion is produced and fluid accumulates in the pleural space? | Pleural effusion. |
| What is the most common cause of pulmonary edema? | Increased capillary pressure from the left ventricular failure. |
| What is the most common pulmonary perfusion abnormality? | Pulmonary embolism. (PE) |
| What is a chronic respiratory condition that obstructs the flow of air to of from patient’s bronchioles? | Chronic obstruction pulmonary disease. (COPD) |
| What procedure is used by inserting a needlelike instrument into the pleural space and removing the fluid? | Thoracentesis. |
| What is responsible for the basic rhythm and depth of respiration? | Medulla oblongata and pons of the brain. |
| What is the normal range of respiration for an adult? | 14 to 20 breathes per min. |
| List some nursing intervention after a bronchoscopy: | Keep patient on NPO. Keep patient semi-Fowler’s position. Monitor patient for increased dyspnea. Monitor sputum signs for hemorrhage after biopsy. |
| The act of difficulty breathing. | Dyspnea. |
| An abnormal sounds superimposed on breathing sounds. | Adventitious sounds. |
| What are low-pitched, grating, or creaking lung sounds that occur when inflamed surfaces rub together during respiration? | Pleural friction rubs. |
| List the following nursing interventions for thoracentesis: | Explaining procedure. Obtaining written consent. Relieve patient’s anxiety. |
| List the following normal blood gas values: | Ph: 7.35-7.45. PaCO2: 35-45 mm Hg. PaO2:80-100 mm Hg. HCO3-:21-28 mEq/L. SaO2:95%. |

| What reflects pH alkalinity? | Equal to or greater than 7.45. |
| What is needed to replenish tissues adequately with oxygen, with 95% to 100% desired. | An SaO2 of 90% to 100%. |
| A bleeding from the nose; congestion of the nasal membranes, leading to capillary rupture. | Epistaxis. |
| List the following structural plan or the respiratory organs: | Pharynx. Trachea. Bronchi. Lungs. |
| Pharynx contains these: | Nasal cavity. Nasopharynx. Oropharynx. Laryngopharynx. |
| The lower respiratory contain: | Larynx. Trachea. Bronchi. |
| The lung contains the following: | Bronchioles. Alveoli. Pulmonary capillary. |
| The alveolar sac contains the following: | Alveoli. Alveolar duct. |
| Throughout the thoracentesis, what should the nurse be monitoring: | Vital signs. General appearance. Respiratory. |
| What do you do after the thoracentesis? | Position patient on unaffected side. Label the specimen and send it immediately to the laboratory. |
| What happens then SaO2 sat drop below 85%? | The ability of hemoglobin to feed oxygen to tissue weakens. |
| What can occur in antigen-antibody allergic rhinitis and allergic conjunctivitis; hay fever. | Otitis; ear fullness, popping, or decreased hearing. |
