Recommended: The respiratory system chapter 7

To introduce the respiratory system, use the SOS strategy found in the DE Techbook teacher section Silence is Golden. Show the video segment Cow’s Lungs in Explore More Resources with no audio and ask the students to describe what is happening and why. As they discuss aloud what they are seeing, educators will get an idea of what they understand, need to still master and want to know more about. Ask the students to record their observations in their notebooks. Then to finish up, have them explain to a partner what the video has demonstrated. As the students observe the cow’s lungs experiment, they will be isolating a single system and constructing a simplified model of it; imagining an artificial boundary between the respiratory system and

    Respiratory assessment is a significant aspect of nursing practice. According to the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence, respiratory rate is the best indicator of an ill patient and it is the first observation that will demonstrate a problem or deterioration in condition (Philip, Richardson, & Cohen, 2013). When a respiratory assessment performed effectively on a patient, it can result in upholding patient’s comfort and independence in progress of symptom management.

During analysis, specific locations of symptoms can be identified using landmarks such as the midaxiallary, midclavicular, and, the midsternal line.

    Caring for people is my passion. My senior year of high school is when I witnessed my grandmother live on a ventilator for about a week.

The continues challenges of trying to figure out what’s wrong the heart that day or what’s wrong with the lung the next day will always keep me on my toes. It will always

  • The Lungs And Respiratory System

    1005 Words  | 3 Pages

    The lungs are a vital part of the respiratory system, a group of organs and tissues that work together to help humans breathe. The system’s main job is to move fresh air into the body while removing waste gases. Lungs are important because every cell in the body needs oxygen to live. The air we breathe contains oxygen and other gases. Once in the lungs, oxygen is moved into the bloodstream and carried throughout the human body. The bloodstream then carries the waste gas back to the lungs where it is removed from the blood stream and then exhaled. The lungs and respiratory system automatically perform this vital process, called gas exchange (American Lung Association). Lungs contain millions of air sacs called alveoli. With each breath,

  • Capnography And The Respiratory Cycle

    319 Words  | 1 Pages

    As I review Capnography, I refreshed a couple of key concepts. First, a Capnograph measures the CO2 during each phase of the respiratory cycle (Sullivan, 2015). Second, the carbon dioxide is the drive to breath; if there are high levels of CO2, respiratory rate should increase (Sullivan, 2015). Similar to reading of an electrocardiogram, the capnography waveform measures the arm movement in the lungs (Sullivan, 2015). A couple of thoughts came to mind from your initial post. The healthcare industry and practice is evolving and continually changing (Miller, Hayes, & Carey, 2015). The “sacred cow” approach or the reply “we’ve always done it this way” in Nursing is discouraging and challenging (Miller, Hayes, & Carey, 2015). After pondering

  • Essay On The Respiratory System And The Circulatory System

    930 Words  | 2 Pages

    The roles of the circulatory and respiratory system both carry important responsibilities and are essential in their jobs to the human body. The circulatory system is one, if not the, most important system in the human body. The circulatory system is made up of the heart, blood, and blood vessels. Within the blood vessels, there are three types: arteries, veins, and capillaries. The heart is an organ made up of cardiac muscle that has a role similar to a pump. When the muscles in the heart contract, it pumps fresh blood away from the heart, through a main artery called the aorta, and to the organs and cells of the body. Nutrients and oxygen then enter the cells through diffusion of the tissues. The respiratory system transports oxygen to the circulatory system. When transporting oxygen to the circulatory system, this will in turn transport oxygen to the rest of the cells in the body. Aside from transporting oxygen to the body, the respiratory system also plays a role in the removal of carbon dioxide and other contaminants in the body. These two systems effectively and efficiently work together in order to supply the body with oxygen and remove carbon dioxide and any other
