- 0:00hello and welcome let's start talking
- 0:03about let's start by talking about the
- 0:06respiratory system so here now when we
- 0:08go through and we talked about the
- 0:10respiratory system again we'll go
- 0:11through first and we'll talk about all
- 0:12the different components there as well
- 0:15and then we'll go through each
- 0:16individual component like we did with
- 0:18gastrointestinal system so here first
- 0:20what we'll do is I'll introduce you to
- 0:23the components that make up this
- 0:24respiratory system and I'm gonna go
- 0:26through the basic functions and then
- 0:27we'll go through and hit each every each
- 0:29and every one of those different
- 0:31basically parts so here now when we go
- 0:34through you can see this is making up
- 0:36basically the respiratory system now we
- 0:38can see here the majority of it and
- 0:41there are some parts that we're not able
- 0:43to see that we're going to see why us
- 0:45zooming in on to the lungs and looking
- 0:47at them then in greater detail so first
- 0:50here let's see we could see when we talk
- 0:52respiratory system first we've got what
- 0:54we call the nose the nasal cavity will
- 1:02see our paranasal sinuses that we have
- 1:05already looked at and we've talked about
- 1:07in relation to all the various bones
- 1:10we've seen right around this nasal
- 1:13cavity your pharynx aka your throat your
- 1:21pharynx next in here we've got our
- 1:23larynx larynx and then we've got the
- 1:29trachea the trachea or windpipe aka
- 1:34right and then you can see here it
- 1:37divides the trachea divides it divides
- 1:39into our bronchi and then more
- 1:41specifically speaking you can see you
- 1:44can have right and left main bronchi or
- 1:46primary bronchi so that's what we're
- 1:50seeing here and then they're going to
- 1:52subdivide even further and further as
- 1:56they move deeper into the lungs kind of
- 1:59like arteries do so when we move there
- 2:04we'll see then the main bronchi plus
- 2:06they're successively smaller branches
- 2:09all the way to the level of the alveoli
- 2:14that are inside the lungs and then we'll
- 2:16look at all of that stuff when we move
- 2:18down to the inside of the lungs so all
- 2:23the various parts of the respiratory
- 2:25system now let's go through the basic
- 2:27functions here so we go through
- 2:28functions a main function we have here
- 2:31is gas exchange to supply the body with
- 2:35oxygen and rid the body of carbon
- 2:39dioxide remove co2 dispose of co2 now
- 2:44between the blood you can see an air so
- 2:47know how does all of this happen this is
- 2:50going to happen thanks to four processes
- 2:55that are going to collectively be called
- 2:59respiration now we'll go through we'll
- 3:04look at these four processes in a few
- 3:05seconds before we do that let me go to
- 3:07the rest of the functions here speech
- 3:09and other vocalization Oh faction the
- 3:15sense of smell right we've gone through
- 3:16we've talked about we've seen where that
- 3:18was also the respiratory system is going
- 3:21to help control the pH of the body the
- 3:23body's pH it'll work with will see our
- 3:26kidneys it aids in regulation of blood
- 3:32pressure by assisting angiotensin ii
- 3:36production if you recall our Roth system
- 3:40helps create pressure gradients for the
- 3:43flow of lymph and venous blood also it's
- 3:49involved with the expulsion of abdominal
- 3:51contents with defecation and we have the
- 3:56valsalva maneuver where you'll close the
- 4:01glottis applying pressure basically in
- 4:04that abdominal cavity so all various
- 4:09functions of the respiratory system
- 4:10let's focus in here on the first
- 4:12function this is what we're going to be
- 4:15really concerned with that's gas
- 4:16exchange right we talked about we'll
- 4:19talk to other vocalization in speech
- 4:21when we get to the vocal cords smell
- 4:23we've already checked out we've looked
- 4:24at pH control you'll see that in physio
- 4:27here we saw with endocrine okay this
- 4:31we're going to see with cardiovascular
- 4:33and in this here we saw now as we
- 4:36mentioned so let's talk then respiration
- 4:40let's talk four processes that we refer
- 4:41to as respiration now here these four
- 4:44processes that we refer to as
- 4:46respiration are going to be known as
- 4:48pulmonary ventilation number one
- 4:51pulmonary ventilation will see as number
- 4:54one when we talk pulmonary ventilation
- 4:57pulmonary ventilation is basically
- 5:00breathing so what I'll do is all right
- 5:01that appear as number one and then we'll
- 5:05write P and a V for pulmonary
- 5:09ventilation or breathing now when we
- 5:13talk pulmonary ventilation or breathing
- 5:15this is exactly what its name says
- 5:18pulmonary ventilation or like we said
- 5:20breathing this process okay this is one
- 5:24of the four processes that are going to
- 5:26cook are going to be basically making up
- 5:30what we call we said respiration where
- 5:32this is going to help with gas exchange
- 5:35so we'll see if one of these four
- 5:37processes aren't working doing their job
- 5:40basically then gas exchange respiration
- 5:43is not going to be occurring properly
- 5:45there either
- 5:46okay so first pulmonary ventilation
- 5:48pulmonary ventilation is the process of
- 5:49breathing you know like we said it's
- 5:51talking about the process of moving
- 5:53oxygen right in to and co2 out of oxygen
- 6:06into the lungs and co2 out of the lungs
- 6:15so again for you to be able to exchange
- 6:17gas you have to be able to get air into
- 6:21and out of the lungs so you have to be
- 6:24able to get air into and out of the
- 6:25lungs and we get more specific basically
- 6:27getting oxygen into and co2 out of the
- 6:30lungs right if we have this process
- 6:34let's say traumatic accident where you
- 6:38know a patient has
- 6:39something on top of their chest and you
- 6:42hear this a lot even I work on cars I
- 6:45like working on cars so I hear this a
- 6:47lot with mechanics give the car not
- 6:51being properly stabilized and it leading
- 6:55to a traumatic accident where now it's
- 6:58on the individual nobody is there or
- 7:01this individual is unable to get this
- 7:03vehicle off and now this pulmonary
- 7:05ventilation step is going to not be
- 7:07occurring so then gas exchange is not
- 7:10going to be occurring okay so you see
- 7:12how this is all part of a big picture so
- 7:14first you have pulmonary ventilation
- 7:15right so you have to be able to refresh
- 7:17these gases refresh this air next then
- 7:21we're going to talk about external
- 7:24respiration external respiration when we
- 7:27talk about external respiration the
- 7:29second process external respiration is
- 7:31talking about the movement of oxygen now
- 7:34from the lungs from the lungs into the
- 7:37blood let's just draw a blood vessel
- 7:40right here next to the lungs
- 7:45okay so here we're going to see in the
- 7:49next region this is actually your
- 7:50pulmonary circulation so here we can see
- 7:54now we've got air in right so oxygen
- 7:57made its way all the way down into the
- 8:00lungs okay so oxygen made its way all
- 8:07the way down right and co2 is what then
- 8:10made its way out is what we're looking
- 8:12at here okay so now we've got this
- 8:14oxygen inside the lungs now the second
- 8:17step okay the second step I'm talking
- 8:20about here external respiration okay
- 8:25external respiration you can see now is
- 8:29dealing with the movement of this oxygen
- 8:32from the lungs and into the blood vessel
- 8:35we have to be able to move that oxygen
- 8:38into the blood vessels and again
- 8:41vice-versa for co2 always think opposite
- 8:43for co2 now if this doesn't occur right
- 8:47gas exchange is it occurring again going
- 8:49back to the function so this here you
- 8:52can see is step
- 8:53to the number three is dealing with the
- 8:57transport we have to be able to move
- 9:00this gas now this oxygen to its proper
- 9:05place now this oxygen we're talking
- 9:07about moving to organs and tissues and
- 9:10cells so I'll just draw a little cell
- 9:12here just to kind of give you that idea
- 9:14and here you can see you've got a little
- 9:16epithelial cell okay so it's making up
- 9:19you know tissue is the big picture we
- 9:21want to get here so make this nucleus a
- 9:24little bit more circular alright so now
- 9:29we have to be able to move transport
- 9:32this gas right oxygen to the tissue
- 9:37cells and co2 vice-versa
- 9:40so this now is step three now step three
- 9:45is transport of gases so transport of
- 9:50respiratory gases now involves which
- 9:53system you can see now we've got
- 9:56cardiovascular system coming in so
- 9:58without the cardiovascular system these
- 10:00last two steps would not be able to
- 10:02occur now fibrosis is one problem that
- 10:07can occur here let's say an occlusion is
- 10:10another problem that can occur here now
- 10:12let's see and now step 4 step 4 is going
- 10:15to be internal respiration internal
- 10:20respiration now when we talk internal
- 10:23respiration internal respiration is
- 10:25going to deal with now the movement of
- 10:27these gases from that circulatory system
- 10:31from the blood vessels now from the
- 10:35blood the blood vessels to the tissues
- 10:38cells to the tissues cells so that
- 10:42oxygen now actually moving into the
- 10:44tissue cells and opposite up co2 as
- 10:49we've described so here you can see now
- 10:51this is internal respiration now these
- 10:54four steps these four processes
- 10:56collectively okay so we'll say here
- 11:00these four processes collectively make
- 11:06up what
- 11:07we referred to them as respiration and
- 11:21that is how gases will be exchanged at a
- 11:27basic level right at a basic level next
- 11:34time let's move down let's go through
- 11:36all of these different structures here
- 11:40now and let's actually classify them
- 11:42into two categories okay so let's do
- 11:46this let's look at then let's go back
- 11:50here
- 11:51so first way to divide these components
- 11:55you can see is a conduction it is going
- 11:58to be through this conducting division
- 11:59and respiratory division and also
- 12:01through an upper respiratory tract and a
- 12:04lower respiratory tract so let's do this
- 12:05division here first and then we'll jump
- 12:07into this division here in greater
- 12:09detail so here when we go through we
- 12:11talk upper respiratory tract nose
- 12:13through larynx lower respiratory tract
- 12:17then trachea down to the lungs trachea
- 12:22okay trachea through the lungs lower
- 12:25respiratory tract upper nose through
- 12:30larynx that's upper respiratory tract
- 12:34hiepro you're familiar with upper
- 12:36respiratory tract infection lower
- 12:37respiratory tract infection okay so this
- 12:39is where we're relating that to okay so
- 12:42that's what they're talking about
- 12:43they're talking about those specific
- 12:45regions or specific areas so let's
- 12:48divide everything up into zones
- 12:50conducting zone and respiratory zone so
- 12:52here first I want to talk to you about
- 12:54your respiratory zone now when we talk
- 12:56respiratory's own respiratory zone I
- 12:58want you to know first is your actual
- 13:01site of gas exchange it's the actual
- 13:04site of gas exchange it is composed of
- 13:09your respiratory bronchials your
- 13:15alveolar ducts
- 13:19and your alveoli these are all your
- 13:23microscopic structures so let's zoom in
- 13:26basically in here and let's look at all
- 13:29of those structures so let's move all
- 13:32the way to right inside of here now so
- 13:37first you can see the branching pattern
- 13:40through the lungs so I told you these
- 13:43primary bronchi are going to make their
- 13:45way deeper into the lungs and as they
- 13:46make their way deeper than lungs I told
- 13:48you they're going to give off
- 13:49successively smaller branches right so
- 13:51that's what you see we refer to this
- 13:53branching pattern as the bronchial tree
- 13:57branching pattern okay it looks like a
- 14:00tree and fall okay basically no leaves
- 14:04it's all the branches that you see there
- 14:05so here now you can see as we make our
- 14:09way all the way in so this is going all
- 14:10the way through okay this is the alveoli
- 14:13the ending basically so here now when we
- 14:17talk respiratory zone it's I told you
- 14:20the actual site of gas exchange so it's
- 14:22going to be made up of what we call the
- 14:26respiratory bronchioles so you can see
- 14:28coming all the way into here and making
- 14:32our way all the way right before the
- 14:35alveolar cluster you can see is the
- 14:39respiratory bronchial
- 14:40that's where then the respiratory zone
- 14:42will begin look at this picture here you
- 14:45can see coming all the way into the
- 14:47lungs making our way all the way towards
- 14:48the ending okay so we zoom in on this
- 14:51area here and we zoom in on that area
- 14:53here there's the same picture that we
- 14:54just saw you can see you got your
- 14:56terminal bronchioles then here you can
- 14:58see the respiratory bronchioles so it's
- 15:01composed of the respiratory bronchioles
- 15:03we said then the alveolar ducts right
- 15:06the ducts leading to the alveoli and
- 15:08then the alveoli themselves all
- 15:11microscopic structures that's why you
- 15:14can see here we've had to zoom in on
- 15:15these structures to be able to
- 15:17appreciate them so this is your
- 15:21respiratory zone from here down to the
- 15:26alveoli and if we
- 15:29from here okay from the terminal
- 15:31bronchioles if we go from these terminal
- 15:34bronchioles and we go basically all the
- 15:36way up and we go all the way up okay so
- 15:40if you go from the terminal bronchioles
- 15:42you got these bronchioles and we go all
- 15:44the way up back up into here all the way
- 15:49up into the trachea the larynx okay all
- 15:54the way back up into here now all of
- 15:57these structures now make up what we
- 15:59call the conducting zone what are they
- 16:02doing very good they're conducting this
- 16:06here they're conducting this air through
- 16:10two of the alveoli and away from the
- 16:14alveoli so these are what we call your
- 16:17conducting zone structures so we talk
- 16:20conducting zoning it includes all other
- 16:22respiratory passageways apart from what
- 16:26we saw those respiratory bronchioles the
- 16:29ducts of the alveoli and the alveoli
- 16:32themselves now what do these conducting
- 16:37zone structures do besides conduct air
- 16:40they're also going to they're also going
- 16:45to be responsible for cleaning
- 16:49humidifying warming and creating
- 16:55turbulence in this air which is going to
- 17:00be involved with again helping to clean
- 17:02and humidify and also warm this incoming
- 17:06air so by the time it reaches the
- 17:11alveoli the temperature has changed and
- 17:15it's cleaned and then we said the
- 17:19respiratory zone is the actual site of
- 17:22gas exchange you make sense so let's go
- 17:29through the various organs let's start
- 17:31with the nose first now when we talk
- 17:32about the nose the nose is the only
- 17:35externally visible part of this
- 17:39respiratory system everything else is
- 17:41hidden inside you don't see it
- 17:43pretty cool no we both are we talk about
- 17:45the knows the function of the nose
- 17:47number one it provides an airway for
- 17:49respiration number two it's going to
- 17:53moisten and warm this entering the air
- 18:00number three it filters and cleans
- 18:05inspired air number four it serves as a
- 18:12resonating chamber for speech number
- 18:18five
- 18:19it houses the olfactory or your smell
- 18:25receptors now when we talk about the
- 18:30structures in relation to the nose you
- 18:34can see the nose is going to be divided
- 18:36in two it's an external nose and an
- 18:40internal nasal cavity we erase all this
- 18:47so if you divided up into an external
- 18:50nose and an external nose and an
- 18:54internal nasal cavity so you could see
- 19:04that there then as two separate
- 19:10divisions in so here now let's focus in
- 19:15on this region in greater detail so we
- 19:17focus in on this region there that in
- 19:19greater detail here we could see first
- 19:21the external nose so let's go through
- 19:24the external nose and then we'll check
- 19:26out the internal notes now when we talk
- 19:28about this external nose the external
- 19:29nose you can see is made up of a few
- 19:31parts and we'll go through these few
- 19:33parts here you can see number one this
- 19:35external nose is found located between
- 19:37the orbits and then also superior to
- 19:40that oral cavity now here you can see
- 19:44first we have what we call the root of
- 19:47the nose is where the nose you can see
- 19:51is going to begin this is where then you
- 19:53can see those nasal bones
- 19:56are going to be found right articulating
- 20:00with the rest of these bones here here
- 20:05you can see in greater detail then those
- 20:09two nasal bones frontal bone if you
- 20:13recall then we had our maxillary bones
- 20:17right and then here we have cartilage
- 20:24are they telling us okay very good which
- 20:27cartilage which cartilage do we see out
- 20:31here making up that nose right is it
- 20:34fibrocartilage know is it elastic
- 20:39elastic was easy right because it's only
- 20:41found in its elastic it's easy because
- 20:45it's only found in the epiglottis and
- 20:48the ear that you have to know if at 40 s
- 20:50so nope no last one left so here then
- 20:56when we go through then we go through
- 20:57and you can see that those two nasal
- 20:59bones so the root we're going to see
- 21:02where that nose is going to begin at we
- 21:05refer to that then here we're going to
- 21:06see the bridge so this leads us to the
- 21:08bridge then here you can see you've got
- 21:11the bridge so the bridge in the root are
- 21:14found between the eyebrows and the
- 21:18orbits the orbital cavities the bridge
- 21:24then will lead us to the dorsum nasai
- 21:26the dorsum NASA this is that you can
- 21:28think of the arch the arch of the nose
- 21:32which will then lead us to the apex the
- 21:36apex or the terminal part the tip of the
- 21:38nose and then from the tip of the nose
- 21:41we can see if we flare laterally then we
- 21:45encounter the LA the wings at the wing
- 21:48like parts the LA and they're going to
- 21:54help form the nostrils
- 21:56they will help form daenerys the
- 21:59nostrils so when we talk then the nasal
- 22:03cavity the nasal cavity is internal it's
- 22:07found lying
- 22:09in and posterior to this external nose
- 22:16we've got first then veneers
- 22:19they're gonna allow air to pass into the
- 22:22nasal cavity the nostrils right next we
- 22:26have the nasal septum it divides the
- 22:28nasal cavity into equal right and left
- 22:30halves and you should be able to recall
- 22:33the bones that we have there and in the
- 22:37parts of the bones as well specifically
- 22:39speaking so let's look at the inside now
- 22:42when we look at the inside you got this
- 22:44view here in this view here okay some
- 22:47nice views let's zoom in on this views
- 22:49basically what we're doing here so here
- 22:51we could appreciate now the posterior
- 22:54nasal aperture the posterior nasal
- 22:58aperture is found you can see right
- 23:02inside of here this posterior nasal
- 23:06aperture is basically you could think of
- 23:09the archway and it allows this nasal
- 23:12cavity to be continuous with the nasal
- 23:16pharynx it allows the nasal cavity to be
- 23:23continuous with the nasal portion of the
- 23:26pharynx or more specifically speaking
- 23:29the nasal pharynx next then we're able
- 23:34to appreciate here the roof and the
- 23:36floor of the nasal cavity the roof of
- 23:40the nasal cavity is formed by the
- 23:44ethmoid bone and the sphenoid bones of
- 23:49the skull you can see that here very
- 23:53clearly now when we talk about the floor
- 23:57the floor of this nasal cavity is formed
- 24:01by the palate the palate we had two
- 24:06divisions hard and soft right so I'm
- 24:09just saying palate because both are
- 24:11involved here no here you can see first
- 24:13we have the hard palate and then here we
- 24:17can appreciate the soft palate which led
- 24:20us to the uvula the pendulous structure
- 24:23we saw at the dorsal aspect of that oral
- 24:26cavity and then the two here helped to
- 24:29close off that entrance into the nasal
- 24:31pharynx when we swallowed right we
- 24:32discussed all that when we talked about
- 24:34gastrointestinal system GI tract so you
- 24:40can see why then cleft lip cleft palate
- 24:45can become problematic for the patient
- 24:48and we have to go in surgically and help
- 24:51repair this next then we have the nasal
- 24:56vestibule so I want you to make sure you
- 24:58understand the cleft lip palate
- 25:00now your hundred-percent gear have to
- 25:02know everything about that we've talked
- 25:03about the bones and we've talked about
- 25:05this now and rinsing this condition
- 25:08second time now so nasal vestibule then
- 25:12we talk nasal vestibule the nasal
- 25:14vestibule vestibule we've used this term
- 25:16now a few times vestibule you can see
- 25:19now is a part of the nasal cavity that's
- 25:22found just superior to the nostrils it's
- 25:25the part of the nasal cavity just
- 25:27superior to the nostrils the nasal
- 25:30vestibule
- 25:31so the recess is a space you could think
- 25:33of found just superior to the nostrils
- 25:37it's lined with skin that's going to
- 25:41contain sebaceous glands sweat glands
- 25:47and numerous hair follicles those hair
- 25:54follicles will contain the Vibrio say
- 25:57the hairs those Vibrio say the hairs
- 26:00what they're going to do is they're
- 26:01going to they're going to filter horse
- 26:04particles from this inspired air they
- 26:08will filter very coarse particles from
- 26:12this inspired air you also have inside
- 26:19of here olfactory mucosa besides that
- 26:27I'm so you also have olfactory
- 26:29epithelium factory because you're gonna
- 26:31find her up inside of here besides we'll
- 26:34see basically nasal
- 26:36Koza so we're gonna have a couple of
- 26:38different types of miko say inside of
- 26:39here so first let's talk olfactory
- 26:41mucosa olfactory mucosa
- 26:44we've talked a little bit about before
- 26:45okay it's the olfactory because there's
- 26:48gonna be mucous membrane it lines the
- 26:50slit like superior region of the nasal
- 26:55cavities right specifically speaking we
- 26:57said it's found on the superior nasal
- 26:59conchae so you could see those right
- 27:02inside of here now again and this whole
- 27:07factory mucosa is going to contain your
- 27:09smell receptors the main component we
- 27:11had there also inside of here is going
- 27:15to be then respiratory mucosa refer to
- 27:18it as respiratory mucosa now respiratory
- 27:21mucosa is going to be made up of pseudo
- 27:24stratified ciliated columnar epithelium
- 27:28pseudo stratified ciliated columnar
- 27:31epithelium it will contain scattered
- 27:36goblet cells that are going to rest on
- 27:42lamina propia
- 27:46that is richly supplied with mucous and
- 27:52serous glands which produced then mucous
- 28:00and watery fluid that's gonna contain
- 28:03enzymes within this nasal cavity we also
- 28:12have lots of sensory nerve endings so
- 28:17that nasal mucosa is richly supplied
- 28:21with sensory nerve endings when they
- 28:25come into contact with irritants this
- 28:29triggers the sneeze reflex so when they
- 28:33come into contact with irritants this
- 28:35trigger is the sneeze reflex and
- 28:38sneezing it forces air outward it forces
- 28:44air outward in a violent burst and
- 28:48that's a way
- 28:50of expelling those irritants from this
- 28:53pathway also within this cavity are
- 29:00going to be capillary plexuses capillary
- 29:04plexus are gonna be found in abundant
- 29:06quantities and they underlie the nasal
- 29:10epithelium what they're responsible for
- 29:14doing is they're responsible for warming
- 29:16this incoming air unfortunately
- 29:21sometimes putting our introducing our
- 29:26finger into the nasal cavity and
- 29:29reducing the digit into the nasal cavity
- 29:31and irritating the mucosa can lead to
- 29:35nosebleeds or even naughty of putting
- 29:42your finger inside your irritating
- 29:44scratching like this or you know doing
- 29:46other things there can also lead to
- 29:48these capillary plexuses bursting and
- 29:50you having what we call it these taxes
- 29:52they're bloody nose so nasal conchae you
- 29:59can see there's three we've spoken of
- 30:01them before now they're scroll like
- 30:05mucosa covered projections I've
- 30:07described them to you as and you can see
- 30:10they protrude medially from each lateral
- 30:13wall of the nasal cavity and they
- 30:17increase the mucosal surface area they
- 30:22enhance air turbulence in that cavity
- 30:28also again you have three of them one
- 30:33two three or they're better known as the
- 30:36superior nasal Concha middle nasal
- 30:39Concha and inferior nasal Concha and
- 30:42then right beneath each of them you can
- 30:45appreciate the meatus is the groove
- 30:50right that air is going to make its way
- 30:54through as it passes
- 30:59so grooves inferior to each of the
- 31:01conchae the missus man then paranasal
- 31:06sinuses we've talked about and we've
- 31:09talked about the paranasal sinuses and
- 31:10we've discussed about how they're going
- 31:13to be found we've seen them to be found
- 31:15in relation to the nasal cavity so make
- 31:19sure you review review those and go
- 31:21through those and check those out then
- 31:23as well so they surround the nasal
- 31:26cavity located in the frontal sphenoid
- 31:28ethmoid maxillary bones not only do they
- 31:31lighten the skull together with the
- 31:34cavities they're going to warm and moist
- 31:36in here let's move that into the pharynx
- 31:43let's move into the pharynx the throat
- 31:46area so let's zoom in on this area here
- 31:48and here you can see that post your
- 31:51knees aperture from this view you really
- 31:52can't appreciate it as well as you can
- 31:54appreciate it right in here you can see
- 31:56the archway much better right inside of
- 31:58here
- 32:03so let's zoom in on them basically this
- 32:07area here we've got now the pharynx your
- 32:09throat right we referred to it as we
- 32:12said it's a funnel-shaped now I want you
- 32:15to know this pharynx is going to extend
- 32:17it extends about five inches from the
- 32:23base of the skull to the level of c6 to
- 32:32the level of c6 so one two three four
- 32:36five six level of c6 we could see there
- 32:41now the functions of this pharynx okay
- 32:44so let's zoom in on this picture let's
- 32:47move to this picture you can see all the
- 32:52way through when we talk about the
- 32:55pharynx its function is that it contains
- 32:58I'm sorry it's gonna connect it'll
- 33:00connect the nasal cavity it'll connect
- 33:06the nasal cavity down too you can see
- 33:10this oral pharynx it'll connect this
- 33:13oral cavity also down to the sorrel
- 33:15pharynx the nasal cavity connect
- 33:17smelling to the laser friends but then
- 33:18also down to the oral pharynx you can
- 33:19see which then all connect down into the
- 33:22laryngopharynx so it connects nasal
- 33:27cavity the oral cavity right to the
- 33:31larynx and this esophagus inferiorly
- 33:38from these two superior locations so
- 33:43larynx we're gonna look at in greater
- 33:44detail esophagus you're going to have
- 33:47back here so it connects these two
- 33:52cavities down to these two cavities
- 33:55basically all your throat or your
- 34:01pharynx if you're speaking again in
- 34:04medical terms so let's go through the
- 34:07nasal pharynx first cuz we've already
- 34:09talked about the oral we've already
- 34:10talked about the low angle right so
- 34:11let's talk nasal pharynx when top nasal
- 34:15pharynx posterior to the nasal cavity
- 34:17inferior to the sphenoid bone which we
- 34:21have right up in here and we talked
- 34:23about getting to the pituitary gland I
- 34:24told you we're gonna make our way to
- 34:26right through this cavity right inside
- 34:29of here no need to make your way up
- 34:31through here and go we'll try to come
- 34:33underneath here right through here so
- 34:39inferior to the sphenoid bone and
- 34:43superior to the level of the soft palate
- 34:45and superior to the level of the soft
- 34:49palate
- 34:51here's your nasal pharynx right again
- 34:54you can see that there it's function it
- 34:58serves as an air passageway nowadays I
- 35:03think some young individuals are
- 35:04allowing it to serve as a passageway for
- 35:06food items right putting spaghetti in
- 35:09here and lots of other things and
- 35:11bringing it down the mouth and they're
- 35:13doing these little tricks there I guess
- 35:15they got tired and bored of eating tied
- 35:17pots so they came to this thing and now
- 35:19I don't know what the newer generation
- 35:21does it's changing every few years I
- 35:25hear of you
- 35:27update me with the newer trends so here
- 35:31maybe somebody will email me and let me
- 35:32know what the new trend is now right
- 35:34went from Tide Pods to I don't know
- 35:39inhaling snorting condoms I believe it
- 35:42was to then putting food through this
- 35:44fairing so you can see the generations
- 35:47have changed a bit and their activities
- 35:50have changed a bit as we progress every
- 35:54generation has their own thing there
- 35:56right so now when we cope them to talk
- 35:57about the nasopharynx so it serves as an
- 36:00air passageway oral and luring go we
- 36:04talked about already before because
- 36:05we've already talked about digestive
- 36:07systems so digestive system digestive
- 36:09tract so now we talk nasal Franks nasal
- 36:13Franks I'd like you to know is lined
- 36:14with pseudo stratified ciliated
- 36:15epithelium pseudo stratified ciliated
- 36:17epithelium now located inside of here
- 36:21are going to be the Ferengi Ilan Souls
- 36:22here we can appreciate the Ferengi Oh
- 36:24tonsils the fringe of tonsils them
- 36:27affected are gonna be known as your
- 36:28adenoids your adenoids you can see
- 36:32they're located high on the posterior
- 36:33wall don't they are located high up on
- 36:36the posterior wall and what they do is
- 36:39they help trap and destroy pathogens
- 36:42they will trap and destroy pathogens
- 36:44that are entering the nasal pharynx that
- 36:49are going to be entering into the nasal
- 36:50pharynx we can also appreciate the
- 36:54opening of the fringe or tympanic tube
- 36:56that we've already talked about
- 36:57now this opening here is going to allow
- 37:01us to drain the middle ear as we have
- 37:03seen before it allows also a middle ear
- 37:07pressure to equalize with atmospheric
- 37:11pressure so you can see those fringe of
- 37:16tympanic tubes they open into the
- 37:19lateral walls of the nasal pharynx
- 37:27and then here we have the uvula we said
- 37:30it was a pendulous structure moves
- 37:32superiorly which is gonna be an action
- 37:36that's gonna help to close off the nasal
- 37:38pharynx when we're swallowing right
- 37:42because we want food to make its way
- 37:43down into the esophagus we described
- 37:47here we have the oral pharynx then the
- 37:50oral pharynx found lying posterior to
- 37:52the oral cavity it's continuous with
- 37:56that oral cavity through the archway
- 37:58here that's known as the isthmus of the
- 38:01fauci's it's like a constricted region
- 38:03here it becomes a small let's see
- 38:06isthmus and then you can see it widens
- 38:08back out I knew the word always I didn't
- 38:16really understand until I got to
- 38:17Catalina Island I like to hike on and
- 38:19camp on this side and it's there's an
- 38:24isthmus there in the water basically
- 38:26it's where you can see the island
- 38:28instead of it being completely huge on
- 38:31the sides it kind of comes in and then
- 38:33it widens back out and this is like the
- 38:37area where we like to stay up and then
- 38:39come back here to the secluded area as
- 38:40well so isthmus is the term you're
- 38:43trying to understand next in here we
- 38:45have basically the oral pharynx I'd like
- 38:50you to know is gonna be lined by a
- 38:51protective stratified squamous
- 38:52epithelium so it's lined by a protective
- 38:55stratified squamous epithelium next in
- 39:02are the Palatine and lingual tonsils so
- 39:04here you can appreciate Palatine tonsils
- 39:06and then lingual tonsils we've got right
- 39:08here as well
- 39:09now Palatine tonsils are going to be
- 39:12pear if I was a pear they're lying
- 39:14embedded in the oral pharyngeal mucosa
- 39:17they're found lying embedded in the oral
- 39:22pharyngeal mucosa of the lateral walls
- 39:25of the fauci's the lingual the lingual
- 39:32are going to be found covering the
- 39:33posterior surface of the tongue again
- 39:37protecting the entrance into
- 39:41the pharynx you can see that pharynx is
- 39:44heavily guarded by security that are
- 39:49there to trap and destroy pathogens that
- 39:52may be entering into the pharynx the
- 39:56Palatine tonsils most oftenly infected
- 40:02the laryngopharynx the laryngopharynx is
- 40:05found located below you can see inferior
- 40:08to the oral pharynx below the oral
- 40:10pharynx it serves along with that oral
- 40:14pharynx it serves as a passageway for
- 40:19food air and liquids and it's line by
- 40:27stratified squamous right
- 40:35non-keratinized if you recall let's talk
- 40:40then larynx we're not going to move down
- 40:42here because we've already done that
- 40:44right we talked about the inferior
- 40:46continuation of the laryngopharynx and
- 40:48we said that was the esophagus so
- 40:51anterior to the lowering of fangs we
- 40:53could move into the larynx so let's zoom
- 40:55in on this structure right inside of
- 40:58here when we zoom in on this structure
- 41:00right inside of here this is what we
- 41:02have then anterior view posterior view
- 41:08and a medial view here's the tongue
- 41:12right no no that's your epiglottis you
- 41:16have the glottis cut in half right
- 41:21through the middle that's what we're
- 41:22seeing here so let's go through the
- 41:25larynx so nice anterior view the larynx
- 41:27is going to be your voice box
- 41:29aka your voice box it extends it extends
- 41:34about two inches it extends about two
- 41:36inches from c3 to c6 extends about two
- 41:41inches from c3 okay to about c6
- 41:48superiorly it attaches to the hyoid bone
- 41:53you can see that there and we resume
- 41:54on this you can see that they're very
- 41:57nicely it opens into the laryngopharynx
- 42:02the larynx opens into the laryngopharynx
- 42:08inferiorly it is continuous with the
- 42:10trachea inferior Li you can see it's
- 42:14continuous with the trachea now here is
- 42:19all trachea two main tasks we talk
- 42:24function let's top function function
- 42:27there's two main tasks number one it's
- 42:29to provide will see two main tasks are
- 42:32going to be to provide number one and
- 42:35open a patent airway so number one it's
- 42:38to provide a patent or an open airway
- 42:41number two its function is to act as a
- 42:44switching mechanism its function is to
- 42:47act as a switching mechanism so that way
- 42:50you can route food to its proper place
- 42:53and air to its proper place right even
- 42:56if we don't allow it to happen if we
- 42:58start to breed when we're swallowing
- 43:01that leads to them the food content
- 43:03making its way to the wrong tube we set
- 43:05the wrong when we say the wrong in
- 43:08laymen terms went down the wrong pipe
- 43:10and that's exactly what you see is
- 43:12happening there so next time here the
- 43:16third function third function is its
- 43:18involved with voiced production voice
- 43:20production and we're going to see the
- 43:22vocal cords in here that'll be
- 43:24responsible for that voice production so
- 43:27let's go through the clip of the
- 43:28structure let's look at the structure of
- 43:30wiring so when we look at the structure
- 43:31of the larynx it's made up of an
- 43:33intricate arrangement it's got an
- 43:36intricate arrangement of nine cartilages
- 43:39that are connected by membranes and by
- 43:42ligaments except for the epiglottis
- 43:50which is made up of elastic cartilage
- 43:54all laryngeal cartilages are hyaline
- 43:57cartilage okay so you got to make sure
- 44:00we've got that established there thyroid
- 44:02cartilage we could look at first so here
- 44:04we've got our thyroid cartilage and we
- 44:05talked about the thyroid cartilage the
- 44:07thyroid cartilage
- 44:08a nice large shield shaped cartilage
- 44:12it's formed by the fusion of these two
- 44:18cartilage plates and here you can see
- 44:21that fusion we have at the point of the
- 44:24fusion what we call the laryngeal
- 44:26prominence or Adam's apple so it's a
- 44:31midline where the two cartilage plates
- 44:38come together we have a nice learned
- 44:42your prominence there Adam's apple there
- 44:44so he marks the fusion point this
- 44:47thyroid cartilage in males is much
- 44:50larger in size why very good
- 44:56testosterone okay so nice thyroid
- 45:01cartilage we can appreciate their then
- 45:03here we could see the creek oi cartilage
- 45:05creek or cartilage quick quick cartilage
- 45:07is inferior to the thyroid cartilage it
- 45:10is ring shaped ring shaped so look at
- 45:15the back when we look at the back let's
- 45:17see here
- 45:18you can see the thyroid card is not good
- 45:20ring shape so it's not going all the way
- 45:21around but right in here the creek Koide
- 45:23is coming all the way around so this is
- 45:24the back part of it that's the front
- 45:26that we've been looking at that's what
- 45:28you're seeing here it's found perched a
- 45:34talked and anchored to the trachea
- 45:37inferiorly so it's found on top of and
- 45:40anchored to the trachea which is found
- 45:44inferior to it let's
- 45:51turn this larynx around and here we can
- 45:56appreciate them so you're gonna say we
- 45:58you said nine cartilages we've only gone
- 46:01through two and here you can see now one
- 46:06two three pairs so that's two total
- 46:09there and in pairs so that's two two two
- 46:12six seven we talked about eight we
- 46:17talked about in the ninth we'll do that
- 46:18big log okay so let's talk eret annoyed
- 46:21cartilage error - annoyed cartilages you
- 46:23can appreciate here this nice triangular
- 46:26pyramid shaped cartilage nice pyramid
- 46:30shaped cartilage it's the most important
- 46:35one here because it's going to anchor
- 46:37the vocal folds it will anchor the vocal
- 46:41folds and then we can see right above it
- 46:48see it right above it perched above it
- 46:50curricula cartilage also found as a pair
- 46:53curricula cartilage and then here we've
- 46:57got on the lateral walls the cuneiform
- 47:01cartilages also found as a pair so it's
- 47:04two four six seven eight cartilages that
- 47:08we have taken care of now these three
- 47:10pairs of small these three pairs are
- 47:13small cartilages they form part of the
- 47:16lateral and posterior walls of the
- 47:19larynx and again the air tuner is the
- 47:22most important there then the last
- 47:26cartilage epiglottis the ninth cartilage
- 47:29it's flexible it's spoon shaped it's
- 47:33composed of elastic cartilage and is
- 47:38almost entirely covered by tastebud
- 47:41containing mucosa in fur in class you
- 47:48would really impress me if you were able
- 47:49to tell me basically what nerve is gonna
- 47:52be providing innervation to that area
- 47:54very good I knew you all knew right we
- 48:02said seven in the front
- 48:049 is what we have in the back rack 10
- 48:11making our way all the way to the back
- 48:13okay so tent nerd next then we've got
- 48:18our sole epiglottis is taken care of our
- 48:21epiglottis almost entirely covered by
- 48:23taste but continued mucosa and you can
- 48:25see the epiglottis is gonna be found
- 48:26extending from the posterior aspect of
- 48:29the tongue so it's extending from the
- 48:31posterior aspect of the tongue let me
- 48:33show it to you there very well or you
- 48:35can see it here very well so it's
- 48:40extending from the posterior aspect of
- 48:42the tongue to its anchoring point to its
- 48:47anchoring point on the anterior rim of
- 48:50that thyroid cartilage so let's zoom in
- 48:54on this - its anchoring point on the
- 49:04anterior room of the thyroid cartilage
- 49:08vocal folds you can see here and
- 49:12vestibular folds we could see right
- 49:14above and kind of lateral to them so
- 49:16let's look at them from a better view so
- 49:19here this view you can see first let's
- 49:21orient ourselves we have the tongue here
- 49:23right so the oral cavity is about in
- 49:25this area here we've got the tongue so
- 49:27moving to the back of the tongue is what
- 49:28we see here so basically what we have
- 49:30here is you've got your patient lying
- 49:32down and you're looking down into that
- 49:34oral cavity you're looking at the top
- 49:36and basically you're looking from here
- 49:39and your patient is lying down and
- 49:40you're looking down into this area right
- 49:43in here with their head tilted back okay
- 49:46you're looking right into this area here
- 49:48that's what this view here is so here
- 49:52that we can appreciate first your vocal
- 49:55folds your vocal folds of your true
- 49:57vocal cords your true vocal cords you
- 50:01can see here very nicely and here very
- 50:04nicely also known as mucosal folds they
- 50:08are pearly white in color pearly white
- 50:11in color because they lack blood vessels
- 50:14because they lack blood vessels their
- 50:17core
- 50:18their core is going to be formed by
- 50:20ligaments and they're composed of
- 50:24elastic fibers these ligaments again
- 50:32they're composed largely of elastic
- 50:34fibers next we have the glottis the
- 50:40glottis is the area from one end of you
- 50:45could see those vocal folds to the other
- 50:49end of the vocal folds this is the
- 50:55opening through which air passes to make
- 51:01its way into the lungs glottis has to be
- 51:12patent we maintain a patent it's open
- 51:16right the only time it closes is during
- 51:20swallowing during swallowing next thing
- 51:25you have your vestibular folds your
- 51:27vestibular folds and we talked about the
- 51:29vestibular folds you can appreciate the
- 51:30vestibular folds here we said superior
- 51:32lateral to the vocal folds so that's
- 51:37tubular folds your false vocal cords or
- 51:41false mucosal folds their superior and
- 51:45lateral to the vocal folds like humps
- 51:49kind of you can dink on the sides and
- 51:55then we have our trachea so this will
- 51:58then lead us down to the trachea we talk
- 52:02trachea trick is your windpipe so let's
- 52:04focus on the trachea so here we have a
- 52:07trachea and we'll talk about the trachea
- 52:08your windpipe it descends it descends
- 52:13from the larynx through the neck and
- 52:16into the mediastinum it ends by dividing
- 52:23into the two main bronchi at mid thorax
- 52:33the trachea is about four inches long
- 52:37and has a diameter of about
- 52:42three-quarters of an inch so 3/4 of an
- 52:46inch diameter it's flexible and mobile
- 52:52as well it's flexible and mobile now
- 52:59when we talk about the histology when we
- 53:01focus in on the histology here we can
- 53:03appreciate that let's zoom in on
- 53:05basically the same thing here you could
- 53:08see now we are going to see it's made up
- 53:11of mucosa number one so here we could
- 53:14see we've got mucosa submucosa and then
- 53:18we've got hyaline cartilage underneath
- 53:20so let's zoom in on that mucosa the
- 53:23mucosa is going to contain goblet cells
- 53:29so pseudostratified we can see there
- 53:33pseudostratified columnar ciliated
- 53:37epithelium that will contain goblet
- 53:41cells and it has a thick lamina propria
- 53:48has a thick lamina propria with a rich
- 53:53supply of elastic fibers providing its
- 53:57support
- 54:00so all making up the mucosa see yuga
- 54:05epithelium and lamina propria next and
- 54:13we can appreciate the submucosa when we
- 54:15talk about the submucosa you can see the
- 54:18submucosa is special here as well
- 54:20because it contains glands also the
- 54:22submucosa is the connective tissue layer
- 54:25that's deep to the mucosa and it
- 54:30contains saero mucous glands the
- 54:36submucosa is supported by 16 to 20 C
- 54:42shaped
- 54:45rings of hyaline cartilage that are
- 54:51encased by adventitia that are encased
- 54:55by adventitia so adventitia then you can
- 55:00appreciate here is the outermost layer
- 55:02of connective tissue next then let's
- 55:09move back and let's talk about the
- 55:12Carina the Carina is found on the lowest
- 55:18tracheal cartilage this Carina it you
- 55:23can see as projecting you really can't
- 55:26see that here but it's going to be found
- 55:27projecting posteriorly it kind of
- 55:31projects posteriorly and basically marks
- 55:35the point where the trachea divides
- 55:37where the trachea ends and it divides
- 55:43and you can see the trachea branches it
- 55:46branches into two main bronchi we said
- 55:52the two primary bronchi so here then we
- 55:57can see the bronchial tree will begin
- 55:59now the bronchial tree is the branching
- 56:02pattern of the Airways that we can
- 56:05appreciate here so it starts with the
- 56:09bronchi the right and left bronchi the
- 56:12right and left main bronchi or primary
- 56:15bronchi we said they are going to be
- 56:18formed when the trachea is going to
- 56:21split and divide the trachea splits and
- 56:26divides we said here at the Carina and
- 56:28this Carina has found at the level of t7
- 56:33thoracic vertebra number seven around t7
- 56:37the right primary main bronchi is wider
- 56:43it's shorter and it's also more vertical
- 56:50compared to the left
- 56:55so keeping that in mind I'd like you to
- 56:57know foreign bodies objects become
- 57:00lodged in this right side much more
- 57:03easier compared to than this light this
- 57:06left side so as we said these primary
- 57:12bronchi are going to make their way
- 57:13deeper into the lungs and they'll branch
- 57:15and here you can see they branch into
- 57:18then the low bar or the secondary
- 57:22bronchi the low bar or the secondary
- 57:25bronchi the low bar or secondary bronchi
- 57:28now these low bar secondary bronchi are
- 57:30subdivisions of the main bronchi there
- 57:33are three on the right and two on the
- 57:36left
- 57:37each supplying a lung lobe they will
- 57:45then enter further into the lungs and
- 57:47divide for me the segments or tertiary
- 57:51bronchi segmental or tertiary bronchi
- 57:59now these segments or tertiary bronchi
- 58:01are subdivisions of each lobe are
- 58:03bronchi and they themselves are going to
- 58:06divide into smaller bronchi as well
- 58:09eventually forming for us the
- 58:12bronchioles or we refer to as the little
- 58:16bronchi these are passages that are
- 58:19smaller than one millimeter in diameter
- 58:23when we talk bronchioles now it took
- 58:26bronchioles let's move into the
- 58:28bronchioles the bronchioles now are made
- 58:30up of you can see basically starting
- 58:34with the terminal bronchioles moving
- 58:35into the respiratory bronchus and then
- 58:37all the way through to the alveoli so we
- 58:40talk bronchioles little bronchi are
- 58:42smaller passages that are smaller than
- 58:44one millimeter in diameter so first
- 58:46let's talk terminal now bronchioles so
- 58:50from the bronchioles we reach the
- 58:52terminal bronchioles now terminal
- 58:53bronchioles are gonna be even smaller
- 58:54branches basically now the terminal
- 58:56bronchioles are the tiniest bronchioles
- 59:01that we've seen so far
- 59:03and these terminal bronchioles are
- 59:05passageways that are less than 0.5
- 59:09millimeters in diameter and we said now
- 59:15at the terminal bronchioles this is
- 59:17where the conducting zone ends leading
- 59:20us then to the respiratory bronchioles
- 59:22now the respiratory bronchioles are
- 59:24within the lung this is the area where
- 59:30we set our respiratory zone begins and
- 59:32they will lead us to the alveolar ducts
- 59:36the alveolar ducts then they're
- 59:41consisting of diffusely arranged rings
- 59:44of smooth muscle cells as we can see
- 59:49along the terminal bronchioles and
- 59:52respiratory bronchioles also smooth
- 59:55muscle so when you talk asthma this is
- 59:58going to be one of the mechanisms that
- 59:59can initiate asthma by causing a
- 1:00:02constriction of those passageways the
- 1:00:04other is inflammation within that
- 1:00:07bronchial itself leading to the pathway
- 1:00:11the passageway the pathway being shut
- 1:00:13off right because of inflammation inside
- 1:00:15sometimes then you can have both happen
- 1:00:19bronchospasms due to the muscle and also
- 1:00:22inflammation so then you need both
- 1:00:25medications so now when we go through we
- 1:00:28talk about the alveolar sacs let's talk
- 1:00:31about the alveolar sacs the alveolar
- 1:00:32sacs are gonna be tiny clusters so here
- 1:00:34you can see one alveolar sac is another
- 1:00:36alveolar sac tiny clusters of grapes you
- 1:00:38can think of tiny clusters of alveolar
- 1:00:41of alveoli the alveolar sacs so now
- 1:00:44let's look at the alveoli themselves all
- 1:00:46right because we need to see what one
- 1:00:47alveoli looks like so here you can
- 1:00:49appreciate the microscopic basically
- 1:00:53depiction the respiratory bronchioles
- 1:00:55leading to then a whole bunch of alveoli
- 1:00:56you've seen all these alveoli in class
- 1:00:58right on the first exam you're able to
- 1:01:01go through and identify everything that
- 1:01:03you had in here so here when we look at
- 1:01:07those alveoli in greater detail this is
- 1:01:09what we're seeing okay same thing we're
- 1:01:13seeing here now these alveoli they're
- 1:01:15made up you can see here of a whole
- 1:01:17bunch of different cells so now these
- 1:01:19alveoli a long width you can see
- 1:01:23the actual blood vessel are going to
- 1:01:29help make up what's called the
- 1:01:30respiratory membrane so we talk a
- 1:01:31respiratory membrane the respiratory
- 1:01:32membrane is formed by the alveolar walls
- 1:01:36and the alveolar walls are made up
- 1:01:40themselves where's my mouse you know we
- 1:01:43could see the alveolar walls themselves
- 1:01:45are made up of primarily a single layer
- 1:01:49of squamous epithelial cells right we've
- 1:01:53seen those they are also known as type 1
- 1:01:55pneumo sites scattered in between these
- 1:01:59cells are type tunable sites which
- 1:02:03produce surfactant and also
- 1:02:07antimicrobial proteins surfactant
- 1:02:11decreases surface tension and it's
- 1:02:15produced around 24 weeks in the fetus
- 1:02:20around 24 weeks in the fetus so anything
- 1:02:26that's basically born before that it's
- 1:02:29going to require intervention compared
- 1:02:37to 1 after that in relation to you know
- 1:02:42pulmonary intervention next in here we
- 1:02:45can see also we have so type 1 and type
- 1:02:482 cells and we also have macrophages we
- 1:02:50can appreciate inside of there as well
- 1:02:52okay so that's one part of the
- 1:02:55respiratory membrane and then on the
- 1:02:57other side you can see you've got the
- 1:02:58actual blood vessels this is the
- 1:03:01pulmonary circulation we talked about so
- 1:03:03here then you've got stuck here so we
- 1:03:12can appreciate okay
- 1:03:15the endothelial cells of the blood
- 1:03:17vessels again simple squamous epithelia
- 1:03:19and then here between the two you've got
- 1:03:22the fused basement membranes of the two
- 1:03:26so that makes up your respiratory
- 1:03:28membrane that makes up your respiratory
- 1:03:31membrane you've got basically blood on
- 1:03:33one side and gas on the other and
- 1:03:34exchange is happening you learn
- 1:03:37in biology thanks to we also talked
- 1:03:40about in here as well
- 1:03:41diffusion right movement from an area of
- 1:03:46high to low
- 1:03:47thanks to concentration differences so
- 1:03:51I'll just buy you that one word
- 1:03:52diffusion see what bio teaches you bio
- 1:03:56is a very important class that's why
- 1:03:58it's a prereq here next let's talk about
- 1:04:02the lungs themselves let's get into the
- 1:04:04lungs so when we talk about the lungs
- 1:04:06lungs are going to be found as a pair
- 1:04:08they occupy all the thoracic cavity
- 1:04:12except for the mediastinum right because
- 1:04:15the mediastinum then you can see is
- 1:04:16occupied by other structures the
- 1:04:19function of the lungs is to transport
- 1:04:22oxygen from the atmosphere into the
- 1:04:24bloodstream and to release carbon
- 1:04:27dioxide from the bloodstream into the
- 1:04:29atmosphere now when we talk about the
- 1:04:33structures in relation to the lungs
- 1:04:35first we can appreciate here the apex of
- 1:04:38the lung so the apices we can see in
- 1:04:41relation to both lungs the apex is the
- 1:04:44narrower superior tip of the lungs and
- 1:04:48you can see here it's found deep to the
- 1:04:51clavicles deep to the clavicles I tell
- 1:04:54my physiology students when you need to
- 1:04:56listen when you need to auscultate the
- 1:04:59apices you're going to auscultate above
- 1:05:01the clavicles above the clavicles next
- 1:05:08thing we have the base the opposite
- 1:05:09usually to the APUs to the apex the base
- 1:05:12is going to be as it's going to be found
- 1:05:14as concave it's found as a concave
- 1:05:18region it's going to be found at the
- 1:05:24inferior surface of the lungs and the
- 1:05:28base rests on top of the diaphragm a
- 1:05:31rests on top of the diaphragm
- 1:05:39next then we've got the hilum we can
- 1:05:43appreciate the pulmonary high lung we
- 1:05:47talk pulmonary hilum this is basically
- 1:05:50an indentation on the medial surface of
- 1:05:54each of the lungs where you'll see the
- 1:05:59blood vessels the bronchi lymphatic
- 1:06:06vessels and nerves enter and exit the
- 1:06:12lungs so this is all that pulmonary
- 1:06:16hilum now we can also appreciate here
- 1:06:23our pleura the pleura you can see is
- 1:06:27nice and continuous with each other
- 1:06:31right because when we talk to each other
- 1:06:33there's two different layers you have a
- 1:06:34Vista when you have a parietal you can
- 1:06:38see that there very nicely so way back
- 1:06:39to lungs left lung is going to be
- 1:06:42slightly smaller it gets divided into
- 1:06:46two lobes a superior and an inferior
- 1:06:49lobe these are the subdivisions and the
- 1:06:55oblique fissure is responsible for
- 1:06:59dividing you can see those two loads
- 1:07:01from one another oblique fissure because
- 1:07:08of the way it comes in and then we got
- 1:07:12we've got the cardiac notch now the
- 1:07:15cardiac notch is going to be found you
- 1:07:19can see on the medial surface of that
- 1:07:21left lung and that cardiac notch is a
- 1:07:24concavity
- 1:07:26it's a concavity on the medial aspect
- 1:07:29and this cardiac notch is molded too and
- 1:07:34it accommodates the heart so that's why
- 1:07:37this side you can see is a little bit
- 1:07:38smaller this lung compared to the right
- 1:07:41that heart is going to be occupying you
- 1:07:43can see most of the space right in here
- 1:07:49next time we talk right lung right lung
- 1:07:52divided up into three lobes you've got a
- 1:07:55superior lobe a middle lobe and an
- 1:07:58inferior lobe and these subdivisions you
- 1:08:02can see they're very nicely the superior
- 1:08:04lobe is divided from the medial herbs
- 1:08:07from the middle lobe
- 1:08:08thanks to you can see this horizontal
- 1:08:10fissure the middle lobe is subdivided
- 1:08:14from this inferior lobe thanks to the
- 1:08:16oblique fissure so again they help
- 1:08:26divide the lung into three lobes these
- 1:08:29fissures next then we talk about our
- 1:08:33bronchopulmonary segments now I'd like
- 1:08:38you to know each of these
- 1:08:39bronchopulmonary segments are going to
- 1:08:41be served by their own artery and vein
- 1:08:45so that exemplifies the dual circulation
- 1:08:49that we're going to see in relation to
- 1:08:50the lungs then we talk about lung tissue
- 1:08:56lung tissue is basically mostly elastic
- 1:09:00connective tissue it's mostly elastic
- 1:09:04connective tissue and we use the term
- 1:09:11given our stroma so stroma is going to
- 1:09:15be a term describing basically lung
- 1:09:17tissue and how it's made up of mostly of
- 1:09:19elastic connective tissue and then again
- 1:09:21it provides support to the epithelium so
- 1:09:24stroma is basically the support for the
- 1:09:26epithelia we could see there next time
- 1:09:28let's talk about let's talk about our
- 1:09:32pleura so I talked pleura pleura always
- 1:09:35described as being thin double layered
- 1:09:39right you've got pride on you got
- 1:09:40visceral then double layered serosa so
- 1:09:43one layer lining the cavity and one
- 1:09:45layer right on top of the lung it's on
- 1:09:46the lung you can't even separate the two
- 1:09:48from each other the lung and the
- 1:09:49visceral pleura they're that adhere to
- 1:09:51one another so here and then the
- 1:09:53visceral the pride are continuous with
- 1:09:55one another you could see here as well
- 1:09:56again so here now when you talk a pleura
- 1:10:02double-layered serous member
- 1:10:03between the two then your pleural cavity
- 1:10:05contains pleural fluid which is going to
- 1:10:08help prevent friction amongst other
- 1:10:10things there as well now when you talk
- 1:10:11muscles of respiration
- 1:10:12so you took muscles of respiration here
- 1:10:14then we get into first the diaphragm
- 1:10:17also in the external intercostal muscles
- 1:10:19they are the muscles of inspiration
- 1:10:22now when the diaphragm muscles activated
- 1:10:24thanks to we've seen the different nerve
- 1:10:26so this is all coming into play now this
- 1:10:29will cause the muscle to flatten and
- 1:10:31then we've talked about how we have
- 1:10:32pleura coming down this will cause the
- 1:10:34pleura to then pull be pulled on as well
- 1:10:37and that causes the lung to be pulled on
- 1:10:39so that causes along them to expand
- 1:10:41helping to get air in along with that
- 1:10:43the external cost those are gonna pull
- 1:10:45you can see those lungs up and out and
- 1:10:49when they pull the Mons up and out again
- 1:10:51you've got pleura private pleura on the
- 1:10:53inside we pull that private pleura as
- 1:10:55well which then pulls on the visceral
- 1:10:58which then is adhered on to the lungs
- 1:11:00which pulls on the lungs again causing
- 1:11:02air to make its way into the lungs in an
- 1:11:04opposite you've got external you've got
- 1:11:07expiration now an expiration the
- 1:11:10internal intercostals are gonna come
- 1:11:11together and they're going to cause
- 1:11:13you'll see the ribs to be depressed and
- 1:11:16pushed down basically which is going to
- 1:11:18then cause the air to be pushed out of
- 1:11:20the lungs along with them you can see
- 1:11:22you've got these other muscles in here
- 1:11:24as well and these other muscles of the
- 1:11:26chest the neck and the abdomen are also
- 1:11:28then going to be involved there as well
- 1:11:30helping to get air out of the lungs now
- 1:11:33all of this is going to be controlled by
- 1:11:35the you can see respiratory centers
- 1:11:39which are gonna be found not only in
- 1:11:41ponds but the medulla but then also
- 1:11:44higher brain centers you can see are
- 1:11:45involved there as well higher brain
- 1:11:47centers are going to influence the
- 1:11:48pontine respiratory group the PRG
- 1:11:51the pontine respiratory group then is
- 1:11:53going to you can see influence the
- 1:11:55Ventura on the dorsal respiratory groups
- 1:11:57the vrg and the DRG which then also are
- 1:12:00influenced by chemo receptors okay and
- 1:12:03these chemo receptors are gonna be found
- 1:12:05located you will see in various
- 1:12:06locations so here we could see the
- 1:12:08respiratory centers of the medulla pons
- 1:12:10right inside of here and they modify
- 1:12:13breathing not only modifying breathing
- 1:12:15but also
- 1:12:17the pace the rate and the depth of
- 1:12:20breathing we can see here but then also
- 1:12:22now the input sources we have here are
- 1:12:26gonna include chemoreceptors we
- 1:12:27mentioned central chemoreceptors and
- 1:12:29peripheral chemoreceptors there
- 1:12:30chemoreceptors so you have to understand
- 1:12:32that now but now exactly what they're
- 1:12:34monitoring stretch receptors irritate
- 1:12:37receptors and also higher brain centers
- 1:12:38the cortex that the hypothalamus and in
- 1:12:41the limbic system all involved with then
- 1:12:45breathing
