An alveolar rapture refers to a situation where the alveolus raptures as a result of increased trans alveolar pressure with less pressure in the adjacent intestinal space. The rapture is dangerous because the amount of pulmonary congestion or obstruction that prevents the expansion of the lung is immeasurable, thereby leaving no criteria for safe pressures.
What else can I help you with?
Loss of elasticity and rupture of alveolar walls are typical problems associated with?
EMPHYSEMA
With which disorder do the alveolar walls lose their elasticity become over-inflated and eventually rupture?
This condition is known as emphysema. It is characterized by damage to the alveoli in the lungs, leading to a loss of elasticity in the alveolar walls. Over time, this can result in the alveoli becoming over-inflated and eventually rupturing, causing difficulty breathing and other respiratory issues.
Is Alveolar recoil lead to a decrease in intr-alveolar pressure?
NO
What is an example of compound alveolar?
The word "cat" is an example of a compound alveolar as it is composed of the alveolar consonants /k/ and /t/.
What is alveolar macrophages also known as?
Alveolar macrophages, aka DUST CELLS.
What is alveolar ridge in Yoruba?
Alveolar ridge in Yoruba can be translated as "ilẹ̀ iigboori."
What keeps the surface between the air and the alveolar cells moist in the lung?
alveolar fluid
What is pulmonary alveolar proteinosis?
Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP) is a rare disease of the lungs.
What is the medical terminology for rupture of the eardrum?
Tympanorrhexis is rupture of the eardrum.
Which artery is behind the ramus with five branches?
Inferior alveolar artery
What produces surfactant?
Surfactant is produced by the type II alveolar cells in the lungs. These cells secrete surfactant which helps lower surface tension in the alveoli, preventing collapse and facilitating gas exchange.
Do you get laryngitis or influenza with the loss of alveolar elasticity?
No, alveolar elasticity would not directly lead to laryngitis or influenza.
