内容説明

Thoroughly updated, the sixth edition covers the essential information in respiratory physiology in a well-organized, concise format. "Respiratory Physiology: The Essentials" is an introductory text written by Dr. West, a well-respected leader in the field. Updated sections include pulmonary capillaries, diffusion of carbon dioxide, hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction, pulmonary edema, and a new chapter focusing on control of ventilation. Numerous illustrations, improved two-color diagrams, self-study review questions, and a helpful index detailing symbols, units, and equations help facilitate rapid learning of the material. All of the diagrams have been improved by adding a second color.

目次

  • Structure and function - how the architecture of the lung subserves its function
  • Ventilation - how gas gets to the alveoli.
  • Diffusion - how gas gets across the blood-gas barrier.
  • Blood flow and metabolism - how the pulmonary circulation removes gas from the lung and alters some metabolites.
  • Ventilation - perfusion relationships - how matching of gas and blood determines gas exchange.
  • Gas transport by the blood - how gases are moved to the peripheral tissues.
  • Mechanics of breathing - how the lung is supported and moved.
  • Control of ventilation - how gas exchange is regulated
  • Respiratory system under stress - how gas exchange is accomplished during exercise, at low and high pressures, and at birth.
  • Tests of pulmonary function - how respiratory physiology is applied to measure lung function.
