The Mechanisms of Ventilation

•  Two phases of pulmonary ventilation •  Inspiration—inhalation •  Expiration—exhalation

Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

Inspiration

•  Volume of thoracic cavity increases •  Decreases internal gas pressure •  Action of the diaphragm • Diaphragm flattens

•  Action of intercostal muscles • Contraction raises the ribs

Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

Inspiration

•  Deep inspiration requires •  Scalenes •  Sternocleidomastoid •  Pectoralis minor •  Erector spinae—extends the back

Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

Expiration

•  Quiet expiration—chiefly a passive process •  Inspiratory muscles relax •  Diaphragm moves superiorly •  Volume of thoracic cavity decreases

•  Forced expiration—an active process •  Produced by contraction of •  Internal and external oblique muscles •  Transverse abdominis muscles

Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

Changes in Thoracic Volume

Figure 22.14

Ribs are elevated and sternum flares as external intercostals contract.

Diaphragm and intercostal muscles contract (diaphragm descends and

rib cage rises). Thoracic cavity volume increases.

Diaphragm moves inferiorly during contraction.

External intercostals contract.

Changes in superior- inferior and anterior- posterior dimensions

Changes in lateral dimensions (superior view)

(a) Inspiration

Inspiratory muscles relax (diaphragm rises and rib cage descends due to recoil of the costal

cartilages). Thoracic cavity volume decreases.

Ribs and sternum are depressed as external intercostals relax.

External intercostals relax.

Diaphragm moves superiorly as it relaxes.

(b) Expiration

Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

Changes in Thoracic Volume

Figure 22.15

At rest, no air movement: Air pressure in lungs is equal to atmospheric (air) pressure. Pressure in the pleural cavity is less than pressure in the lungs. This pressure difference keeps the lungs inflated.

Inspiration: Inspiratory muscles contract and increase the volume of the thoracic and pleural cavities. Pleural fluid in the pleural cavity holds the parietal and visceral pleura close together, causing the lungs to expand. As volume increases, pressure decreases and air flows into the lungs.

Expiration: Inspiratory muscles relax, reducing thoracic volume, and the lungs recoil. Simultaneously, volumes of the pleural cavity and the lungs decrease, causing pressure to increase in the lungs, and air flows out. Resting state is reestablished.

•  Nose dries •  Produces thickened mucus

•  Thoracic wall becomes more rigid •  Lungs lose elasticity •  Oxygen levels in the blood may fall
