149
what do the carotid bodies respond to
chief responsibilities of the carotid body is to monitor hypoxemia (PaO2 < 60 mmhg) they do not respond to saO2 or CaO2. they also monitor PaCO2, H+ and perfusion pressure
150
Hering-breuer inflation reflex
lung inflation is > 1.5 L above FRC (3x normal vt) -> CN 10 -> turns off the DRC -> Inhibits the phrenic nerve not active during inspiration
151
Describe the hypoxic ventilatory response
PaO2 < 60 mmhg closes the Oxygen sensitive K+ channels in the type 1 glomus cells -> raises RMP/ opens Ca channels and increases NT release (ach and atp) -> action potential propagation along herings nerve -> CN 9 -> afferent pathway terminates in the inspiratory center in the medulla -> MV increases to restore PaO2
