Exercise adaptation at high altitudes:_____ in pulmonary ventilation upon rising to a high altitude* blows off large quantities of CO2, reducing the PCO2
#2
At _____ altitude the partial pressure gradient of O2 is lower and thus equilibration takes longer
#3
Stimulation of nerve endings on the surface of the body by cold water causes _____ leading to Hydrocution/Immersion syndrome
#4
Gas emboli occur due to bubbling of _____ out of blood, due to rapid ascent by a diver
#5
Exercise adaptation at high altitudes:At high altitudes, exercise capacity is hinderd by _____ in total O2 available
#6
High altitude initially causes _____ alkalosis and hypoxia, which may cause acute altitude sickness
#7
Cardiac arrhythmias leading to ventricular tachycardia and fibrillation are commonly seen in _____water drowning ONLY
#8
ascent should not be > _____ meters/minute to avoid mountain sickness
#9
mountain sickness is seen in altitudes of >_____ meters
#10
In response to high altitude, there is chronic hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction which results in pulmonary _____ and RV hypertrophy
