| respiratory failure | A clinical syndrome that is defined either by the inability to rid the body of C02 or establish an adequate blood oxygen level (PAO2). See: arterial blood gas. (27 Sep 1997) |
|---|---|
| respiratory frequency | The number of breaths per minute. (05 Mar 2000) |
| respiratory function tests | Measurement of the various processes involved in the act of respiration: inspiration, expiration, oxygen and carbon dioxide exchange, lung volume and compliance, etc. (12 Dec 1998) |
| respiratory hypersensitivity | A form of hypersensitivity affecting the respiratory tract. It includes asthma and hay fever. (12 Dec 1998) |
| respiratory inhibitor | A compound that inhibits the respiratory chain. Synonym: respiratory poison. (05 Mar 2000) |
| respiratory insufficiency | Failure to adequately provide oxygen to cells of the body and to remove excess carbon dioxide from them. (12 Dec 1998) |
| respiratory lobule | The part of the airway consisting of a respiratory bronchiole and all of its branches. Synonym: primary pulmonary lobule, respiratory lobule. (05 Mar 2000) |
| respiratory mechanics | The physical or mechanical action of the lungs, diaphragm, ribs, and chest wall during respiration. It includes airflow, lung volume, neural and reflex controls, mechanoreceptors, breathing patterns, etc. (12 Dec 1998) |
| respiratory metabolism | The exchange of respiratory gases in the lungs, oxidation of foodstuffs in the tissues, and production of carbon dioxide and water. (05 Mar 2000) |
| respiratory metal | A metal present in certain respiratory pigments; e.g., iron, manganese, copper, vanadium. (05 Mar 2000) |
| respiratory minute volume | The minute volume of breathing; the product of tidal volume times the respiratory frequency. See: pulmonary ventilation. (05 Mar 2000) |
| respiratory mucosa | Pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelium with goblet cells and a lamina propria containing, in addition to connective tissue, numerous seromucous glands and in some regions many thin-walled veins which line the airways. See: region of respiratory mucosa. (05 Mar 2000) |
| respiratory murmur | The respiratory murmur heard on auscultating over the normal lung. Synonym: respiratory murmur, vesicular murmur. (05 Mar 2000) |
| respiratory muscles | These include the muscles of the diaphragm and the intercostal muscles. (12 Dec 1998) |
| respiratory pause | Cessation of air flow for less than 10 seconds. See: sleep apnea. (05 Mar 2000) |
