Dr. Nilesh Kate's document discusses the transport of carbon dioxide in the body. It describes how CO2 moves from cells to blood through diffusion down a partial pressure gradient, and is transported in the blood in three forms: dissolved, bicarbonate, and carbamino compounds. The document outlines the roles of hemoglobin, oxygen levels, and temperature in facilitating CO2 transport from tissues to the lungs, where it diffuses into the alveolar air and is exhaled. Key factors like pH regulation and the respiratory quotient are also briefly covered.
Dr. Nilesh Kate's document discusses oxygen transport. It begins by outlining the objectives of oxygen uptake in the lungs, transport in blood, and release in tissues. It then covers the introduction, uptake of oxygen by pulmonary blood due to the concentration gradient between the alveoli and arteries. Oxygen is transported in arterial blood both dissolved and bound to hemoglobin. The sigmoid shaped oxygen-hemoglobin dissociation curve allows for efficient loading and unloading of oxygen in tissues. Shifts in this curve are also discussed. Myoglobin assists with oxygen storage in muscle tissue.
This document discusses oxygen transport from the atmosphere to tissues. It describes how oxygen is absorbed in the lungs and bound to hemoglobin to be carried by the blood. The oxyhemoglobin dissociation curve is explained, showing how hemoglobin releases oxygen in tissues. Factors affecting oxygen diffusion and binding such as partial pressure gradients, carbon dioxide levels, 2,3-DPG, and fetal hemoglobin are covered. The document also briefly discusses oxygen toxicity and ischemia-reperfusion injury.

This document summarizes oxygen and carbon dioxide transport in the blood and tissues. It discusses how:
- Oxygen is carried bound to hemoglobin and dissolved in plasma, allowing blood to carry 30-100x more oxygen than if dissolved alone. Carbon dioxide also combines with substances to increase its transport 15-20x.
- Oxygen diffuses from alveoli into pulmonary blood and from arterial blood into tissues, while carbon dioxide diffuses in the opposite direction.
- Hemoglobin increases oxygen carrying capacity of blood by reversibly binding oxygen. Factors like CO2 levels and temperature can shift the oxygen-hemoglobin dissociation curve.
- In tissues, oxygen diffuses from capillaries into
The document summarizes chemical regulation of respiration. It discusses how carbon dioxide, hydrogen ions, and oxygen levels regulate breathing through central and peripheral chemoreceptors. The central chemoreceptors in the brainstem are stimulated by increased carbon dioxide and hydrogen ions in the bloodstream. The peripheral chemoreceptors in the carotid bodies and aortic arch are stimulated by decreased oxygen levels. Together, the chemoreceptors detect changes in gas levels and stimulate breathing to maintain homeostasis.
The document summarizes gas exchange and oxygen transport in the human body. It discusses how (1) oxygen is extracted from the air and transported via the lungs to the blood, where it is carried by hemoglobin to tissues, and (2) carbon dioxide is transported in reverse from tissues to the lungs. Key aspects covered include alveolar gas transfer, the oxygen cascade, partial pressures of gases, diffusion principles, hemoglobin binding of oxygen and factors affecting it like pH, temperature and carbon monoxide.

This document discusses the neural regulation of respiration. It begins by outlining the respiratory centers located in the brainstem, including the dorsal respiratory group, ventral respiratory group, pneumotaxic center, and apneustic center. These centers generate the rhythmic pattern of breathing and control the rate and depth of respiration. The document then describes various inputs that affect the respiratory centers, including peripheral chemoreceptors, lung stretch receptors, and irritant receptors. It concludes by explaining how disrupting different parts of the respiratory control system, such as through brainstem transections or anesthesia overdose, can impact breathing patterns and potentially cause respiratory arrest.
This document discusses lung volumes and lung capacities, which refer to the volume of air associated with different phases of the respiratory cycle. It outlines the four main lung volumes - tidal volume, inspiratory reserve volume, expiratory reserve volume, and residual volume. It then discusses various lung capacities, which are combinations of two or more lung volumes, including inspiratory capacity, expiratory capacity, functional residual capacity, vital capacity, and total lung capacity. The document provides normal values for males and females for these volumes and capacities.
The document summarizes the chemical control of respiration through respiratory chemoreceptors. There are three types of chemoreceptors: peripheral chemoreceptors located in the carotid bodies and aortic bodies that detect changes in arterial pCO2, pO2, and pH; central or medullary chemoreceptors located in the brainstem that are stimulated by increased hydrogen ion concentration in cerebrospinal fluid; and both peripheral and central chemoreceptors work together to maintain homeostasis and stimulate respiration in response to changes in oxygen, carbon dioxide, and hydrogen ion levels in order to regulate respiration.
1) Gas exchange occurs at the lungs between blood and air, and at tissues between blood and tissues, via simple diffusion down partial pressure gradients.
2) The alveolar-capillary membrane is where oxygen diffuses from alveoli into blood and carbon dioxide diffuses from blood into alveoli. Factors like membrane thickness, surface area, and gas solubility and molecular weight determine diffusion rates.
3) Oxygen is transported in blood bound to hemoglobin (98.5%) and dissolved (1.5%). The oxygen content is the total oxygen carried in blood, while the oxygen carrying capacity is the maximum amount of oxygen hemoglobin can carry when saturated. Percent hemoglobin saturation indicates how
This document discusses the mechanics of breathing including the muscles involved in inspiration and expiration, pressures in the thoracic cavity, lung volumes and capacities, and properties of the lungs and chest wall. It explains that inspiration is an active process due to contraction of inspiratory muscles like the diaphragm and external intercostals, while expiration is usually passive due to elastic recoil of the lungs. Contraction of these muscles decreases intrapleural pressure and expands the lungs, decreasing intrapulmonary pressure and allowing air to flow in. It also discusses pressures like intrapleural, transmural and alveolar pressures that influence breathing, as well as lung compliance, airway resistance, and the role of surfactant
There are four main types of hypoxia: hypoxic, anemic, stagnant, and histotoxic hypoxia. Each type is characterized by specific changes in arterial oxygen levels, hemoglobin levels, blood flow, and tissue oxygen use. Hypoxic hypoxia involves reduced oxygen at the lung or tissue level, anemic hypoxia occurs when hemoglobin levels decrease, stagnant hypoxia is due to decreased blood flow, and histotoxic hypoxia impacts the tissues' ability to use oxygen. The body responds to hypoxic conditions through acclimatization mechanisms like hyperventilation and increased red blood cell production, though these only partially restore normal oxygen levels. Long-term hypoxemia treatment for lung diseases has been
Like heartbeat, breathing must occur in a continuous, cyclic pattern to sustain life processes.
Inspiratory muscles must rhythmically contract and relax to alternately fill the lungs with air and empty them.
The rhythmic pattern of breathing is established by cyclic neural activity to the respiratory muscles
This document defines and classifies different types of hypoxia: hypoxic (reduced oxygen in inspired air), anemic (reduced hemoglobin), stagnant (reduced blood flow), and histotoxic (tissues cannot use oxygen). It describes the pathophysiology, features, compensatory responses, and oxygen therapy approaches for each type. Hypercapnia and cyanosis, which can occur with hypoxia, are also explained. Oxygen therapy is most effective for hypoxic hypoxia but provides less benefit for types involving deficiencies in oxygen transport or utilization.
This document discusses the regulation of respiration. It covers the neural, automatic, and chemical control mechanisms that regulate breathing. The key points are:
1) Respiration is regulated by medullary and pontine respiratory centers in the brainstem that generate the breathing rhythm and control rate and depth.
2) Breathing is also automatically controlled and can occur without conscious effort. It is further modulated by inputs from chemoreceptors sensitive to oxygen, carbon dioxide, and pH levels in the blood.
3) Peripheral chemoreceptors located in the carotid bodies and aortic bodies detect changes in blood gases and signal the respiratory centers to adjust breathing accordingly. Central chemoreceptors in the brainstem are
The cardiovascular system includes the heart and blood vessels. The heart weighs 200-400 grams and pumps around 7,751 litres of blood daily. It is located behind the sternum and is surrounded by membranes. Blood enters and exits the heart through major vessels while valves regulate flow between chambers. The heart muscle generates electrical impulses and contractions to circulate blood throughout the body. Cardiac output is regulated intrinsically through preload and afterload as well as extrinsically through the nervous and endocrine systems.
The document summarizes the juxtaglomerular apparatus (JGA) and tubuloglomerular feedback mechanism. The JGA is located near the glomerulus and is formed by macula densa cells, extraglomerular mesangial cells, and juxtaglomerular cells. The primary function of the JGA is secretion of hormones like renin and prostaglandins. The tubuloglomerular feedback mechanism regulates glomerular filtration rate through detection of NaCl concentration by the macula densa cells, which signals the release of adenosine to constrict or dilate the afferent arteriole accordingly.
DETERMINANTS AND FACTORS AFFECTING CARDIAC OUTPUTakash chauhan
This document discusses the determinants and factors affecting cardiac output. It defines cardiac output as the volume of blood pumped by the heart each minute, which is determined by stroke volume and heart rate. Ejection fraction is explained as the fraction of blood ejected from the ventricles with each heartbeat. Cardiac output can vary due to physiological factors like age, sex, exercise, and pathological factors like fever or shock. Cardiac output is maintained by four main factors - venous return, force of contraction, heart rate, and peripheral resistance. Venous return depends on respiratory pumping, muscle pumping, gravity, and venous pressure.
Stethography is a process that records respiratory movements in humans using a stethograph instrument. The stethograph is a corrugated rubber tube connected to a tambour, which is connected to a pen that writes on a moving drum. When the stethograph is applied to a person's chest, it can record their chest movements during respiration. The stethogram produced provides information about respiratory physiology by recording things like normal breathing, the effects of swallowing, hyperventilation, exercise, breath holding, and other respiratory actions.

The lungs have several metabolic functions beyond gas exchange, including host defence, water balance maintenance, temperature and acid-base regulation, and metabolizing substances. The lungs are protected by physical, mucociliary, and cellular defences like macrophages. The lungs also play roles in water loss, heat loss, acid-base balance maintenance through CO2 exchange, fibrinolysis, renin-angiotensin system effects, and synthesizing/releasing/metabolizing various substances that enter the bloodstream.

Non respiratory functions of lung ( The Guyton and Hall physiology)Maryam Fida
Besides primary function of gaseous exchange, the respiratory tract is involved in several non respiratory functions of the body
1. OLFACTION
Olfactory receptors present in the mucous membrane of nostril are responsible for olfactory sensation.
2. VOCALIZATION
Larynx alone plays major role in the process of vocalization. Therefore, it is called sound box.
3. PREVENTION OF DUST PARTICLES
Particles, which escape the protective mechanisms
in nose and alveoli are thrown out by cough reflex and sneezing reflex.
4. DEFENSE MECHANISM
Lungs play important role in the immunological defense system of the body.
Defense functions of the lungs are performed by their own defenses and
by the presence of various types of cells in mucous
membrane lining the alveoli of lungs.
These cells are
leukocytes,
macrophages,
mast cells,
natural killer
cells
dendritic cells.
5. MAINTENANCE OF WATER BALANCE
Respiratory tract plays a role in water loss mechanism.
During expiration, water evaporates through the
expired air and some amount of body water is lost by this process.
6. REGULATION OF BODY TEMPERATURE
During expiration, along with water, heat is also lost
from the body. Thus, respiratory tract plays a role in
heat loss mechanism.

The document provides information on the functional anatomy and physiology of the respiratory system. It discusses the importance of understanding respiratory anatomy and physiology in fields like pulmonology, anesthesiology and critical care. It then describes the processes of external and internal respiration, the structural and functional unit of alveoli, and the roles and functions of various respiratory structures like the nose, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi, lungs and pleura. It also discusses topics like mucociliary clearance, Kartagener's syndrome, airway innervation, Weibel's model of the tracheobronchial tree and blood supply to the lungs.
Bohr’s effect- The Bohr effect is a physiological phenomenon first described by Danish physiological Christian Bohr, stating that the “oxygen binding affinity of hemoglobin is inversely related to the concentration of carbon dioxide and hydrogen ion.
#An increase in blood CO2 concentration which leads to decrease in blood pH will results in hemoglobin proteins releasing their oxygen load.
#One of the factor that Bohr discovered was pH. He found that if the pH is lower than the normal, then hemoglobin does not bind oxygen.
#And this effect of CO2 on oxygen dissociation curve is known as Bohr effect.
Haldane effect- The Haldane effect is first discovered by John Scott Haldane.
#The Haldane effect describe the phenomenon by which binding of oxygen to hemoglobin promotes the release of carbon dioxide.
#Haldane effect is the mirror image of Bohr effect.
#The decrease in carbon dioxide leads to increase in the pH, which result in hemoglobin picking up more oxygen.
#This is a helpful biochemical feature which facilitates exchange of carbon dioxide for oxygen in the pulmonary and peripheral circulations.
The diaphragm is a thin, dome-shaped muscle that separates the chest cavity from the abdominal cavity. It originates from the xiphoid process, lower ribs, and lumbar vertebrae. The diaphragm has openings for the esophagus, inferior vena cava, and aorta. During inhalation, contraction of the diaphragm increases the vertical space in the chest cavity, aiding breathing. In addition to respiration, the diaphragm assists with abdominal straining, lifting weights, and pumping blood and lymph through the thorax.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune DiseaseHealth Advances
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.
Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

8 Surprising Reasons To Meditate 40 Minutes A Day That Can Change Your Life.pptxHolistified Wellness
We’re talking about Vedic Meditation, a form of meditation that has been around for at least 5,000 years. Back then, the people who lived in the Indus Valley, now known as India and Pakistan, practised meditation as a fundamental part of daily life. This knowledge that has given us yoga and Ayurveda, was known as Veda, hence the name Vedic. And though there are some written records, the practice has been passed down verbally from generation to generation.
