Important TerminologyImportant Terminology• • Hypoventilation: Ventilation inappropriately low for the metabolic Hypoventilation: Ventilation inappropriately low for the metabolic
demands. Alveolar/arterial PCO2 is elevated, alveolar/arterial PO2 is demands. Alveolar/arterial PCO2 is elevated, alveolar/arterial PO2 is
low.Antonym: hyperventilationlow.Antonym: hyperventilation
• • Eupnea: Normal spontaneous breathing. Ventilation is matched to Eupnea: Normal spontaneous breathing. Ventilation is matched to
metabolic demands.metabolic demands.
• • Tachypnea: Increased frequency of breathing. Ventilation may or may Tachypnea: Increased frequency of breathing. Ventilation may or may
not be changed depending on tidal volume. Antonym: bradypneanot be changed depending on tidal volume. Antonym: bradypnea
• • Dyspnea: Subjective sensation of difficult or labored breathing. Dyspnea: Subjective sensation of difficult or labored breathing.
Orthopnea is dyspnea associated with lying down.Orthopnea is dyspnea associated with lying down.
• • Apnea: temporary absence or cessation of breathing (airflow)- normally Apnea: temporary absence or cessation of breathing (airflow)- normally
occurs after hyperventilating or swallowing.occurs after hyperventilating or swallowing.
APNEA is a APNEA is a nonspecific indicator of nonspecific indicator of

Many known cause of apnea can be diagnosed and treated.

PB Apnea SIDS???
Definition of Periodic Breathing: is the abnormal or uneven respiratory rhythm
APNEAAPNEA Cessation of respiratory airflowCessation of respiratory airflow
CENTRALCENTRALNo respiratory effort, no nasal airflowNo respiratory effort, no nasal airflowDevelopmental phenomenonDevelopmental phenomenon
OBSTRUCTIVE respiratory effort, no nasal airflow,
HR. Caused by aspiration, laryngospasm
or poor airway controlMIXED Both obstructive and central
Sleep Disordered BreathingSleep Disordered Breathing
•Can’t Breath = Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA)•Won’t Breath = Central Sleep Apnea -Cheyne Stokes Respiration (CSR)
Cheyne-Stokes Breathing
•Periodic waxing and waning of ventilation without pharyngeal obstruction•Common in heart failure and cerebral vascular disease

HYPOXIAHYPOXIA A condition where there is A condition where there is

HYPOXIA: CLASSIFICATION HYPOXIA: CLASSIFICATION
1.1. Hypoxic Hypoxia Hypoxic Hypoxia:: Arterial P OArterial P O22 is less. is less.
2. 2. Anemic HypoxiaAnemic Hypoxia:: Decreased Hemoglobin causing Decreased Hemoglobin causing OO22

3. 3. Stagnant HypoxiaStagnant Hypoxia:: Due to slow & low blood flow.Due to slow & low blood flow.

3. Defective Gas exchange:3. Defective Gas exchange: Pulmonary EdemaPulmonary Edema PneumoconiosisPneumoconiosis
All these cause a All these cause a decreased partial decreased partial pressure of Oxygen pressure of Oxygen and so and so Hypoxic Hypoxic Hypoxia.Hypoxia.
ANEMIC HYPOXIAANEMIC HYPOXIA A decrease in hemoglobin or RBC A decrease in hemoglobin or RBC
count causes decreased Oxygen count causes decreased Oxygen carriage and so hypoxia.carriage and so hypoxia.
Can also be due to Can also be due to CO PoisoningCO Poisoning..• CO combines irreversibly with Hb.CO combines irreversibly with Hb.
Abnormal Hemoglobins such as Abnormal Hemoglobins such as Sickle HbSickle Hb can also cause Anemic can also cause Anemic Hypoxia.Hypoxia.
STAGNANT HYPOXIASTAGNANT HYPOXIA Also called “Ischemic” or “Hypo-perfusion Also called “Ischemic” or “Hypo-perfusion

May lead to Adult Respiratory Distress May lead to Adult Respiratory Distress Syndrome if it occurs in the lungs.Syndrome if it occurs in the lungs.
HISTOTOXIC HYPOXIAHISTOTOXIC HYPOXIA Oxygen is available at tissue Oxygen is available at tissue

Cyanide inhibits the intracellular Cyanide inhibits the intracellular enzyme, “Cytochrome oxidase”enzyme, “Cytochrome oxidase”
This problem can be treated with This problem can be treated with Methylene Blue.Methylene Blue.• Methylene blue converts Cyan Hb into Methylene blue converts Cyan Hb into
CyanmetHb which is nontoxic.CyanmetHb which is nontoxic.
