INTRODUCTION: During
normal quite breathing
inspiration is an active process;
expiration is a passive process.
The thoracic cage and lungs
increase and decrease in size
during inspiration and
expiration respectively. Different
muscles and pressures help all
these movement.
MUSCLES OF RESPIRATION
There are two types of respiratory muscles– A. Inspiratory
B. Expiratory
During normal breathing the muscles which help in respiration we called
primary respiration muscles. They are two types:
1. PRIMARY INSPIRATORY MUSCLES:
a. Diaphragm: Supplied by thoracic nerve
b. External intercostals muscle: Supplied by intercostals nerve.
2. PRIMARY EXPIRATORY MUSCLES:
a. Internal intercostals muscle: supplied by intercostals nerve.
3. ACCESSORY RESPIRATORY MUSCLES: During forced respiration, some more
muscles are put into action.
a. Accessory inspiratory muscles: Sternomastoid, Scalene, Elevator of scapulae,
Anterior serrate, Pectorals.
b. Accessory expiratory muscles: Abdominal muscle.

MUSCLES AND THORAX INVOLVE IN
BREATHING
RESPIRATORY PRESSURE
There are two types of pressure, which help in respiration.
1. TNTRAPLURAL PRESSURE: Exist in plural cavity. It is exerted by
sanction of fluid living plural cavity.
VALUES: Inspiration: -6mmHg Expiration: -2mmHg
2. INTRA ALVEOLAR PRESSURE: Pressure existing in alveoli of lungs.
This pressure helps in air flow in and out of alveoli.
VALUES: Inspiration: -4mmHg Expiration: +4mmHg
 Other Pressures:-
 TRANS PULMONARY PRESSURE: It is the difference between the
intra alveolar pressure and intra pleural pressure in the pleural
cavity, During human ventilation, air flows because of pressure
gradients. It is measure of elastic forces in lungs which cause
tendency of lungs to collapse.
MOVEMENT OF THORACIC CAGE AND
LUNGS DURING INSPIRATION
 Thoracic cage- During inspiration thoracic cage enlarged in all
diameters due to the elevation of ribs in caused by movement of ---
a) Thoracic lid- Sterner first pair of ribs form lid. Where scalene muscle
contract, ribs move upward and increase the diameter of thoracic cage.
b) Upper costal series- 2-6th pairs of ribs constitute upper costal series,
constriction of the intercostals muscle elevates the ribs and sternum is
moved upward forward and increase diameter. At the same time ribs central
portion move upwards and outwards to a more horizon position increasing
transverse diameter of the thoracic cage.
c) Lower costal series- 7-10th pair of ribs forms the lower costal series.
These ribs also increase diameter similar to the upper series. 11th and 12th pair
does not take part in respiration.
d) Diaphragm- During inspiration due to contraction of diaphragm, it is
moved upward and becomes flatteneal which increases diameter of thoracic
cage.
 Lungs- During inspiration due to increase in size of thoracic cage
negative pressure is increased in thoracic cavity which causes expansion of
lungs.
Expiration is a passive process. During expiration-----
• Thoracic cage: During the end of inspiration the
inspiratory muscles are in relaxed condition. Gravitational pull of
rib cage downwards reduces the size and volume of the thoracic
cavity.
 Decrease in the volume induces the rise of pleural pressure
towards the less negative levels.
 Lungs: Lungs have a tendency to collapse due to its elastic
nature. As a result alveolar pressure is increased and possess
positive value in respect with the atmospheric pressure.
 the difference between this two pressures induces air being
expelled from the lungs and helps in expiration.
