Respiratory rate increase

Desflurane does not have a marked bronchodilator effect and in cigarette smokers it is associated with significant bronchoconstriction. In clinical practice, both humidification of inspired gases and opioids are thought to reduce airway irritability but even at moderate concentrations (2 MAC), desflurane is more likely to cause coughing than sevoflurane. In common with other volatile agents, desflurane causes dose-related respiratory depression. Tidal volume is reduced and respiratory rate increases, initially. As inspired concentrations of desflurane increase, the trend is to hypoventilation and hypercardia and apnoea is to be expected at concentrations of 1.5 MAC or greater. 

Jerusalem artichoke tubers are considered cyanide sensitive (i.e., the absence of a functioning alternate pathway) however, under appropriate conditions (e.g., exposure to 10 mi l1 ethylene in pure oxygen) the alternate pathway is activated, indicating that the alternative oxidase is either present or readily inducible (Theologis and Laties, 1982a, 1982b). Exposure of such tubers to cyanide results in the respiratory rate increasing over three-fold (i.e., from 14 ml C02 g 1 fwth 1 in control tubers to 46 ml C02 g 1 fwt h ).

The values of P/O change within the range of 1-3, and characteristic of the substrate undergoing oxidation and characteristic of the organ s physiological role. In the case of excess oxygen and inorganic phosphate, the respiratory activity of the mitochondria is controlled by the amount of ADP available. In the controlled state called state 4, the amount of ADP is low. With the addition of ADP, the respiratory rate increases sharply this active state is called state 3. The ratio of the respiratory rates of state 3 to state 4 is called the respiratory control index. 

Respiratory effects. Isoflurane causes respiratory depression the respiratory rate increases, tidal volume decreases, and the minute volume is reduced. The ventilatory response to carbon dioxide is diminished. Although it irritates the upper airway it is a bronchodilator. 

Branch of the ANS that is activated during emotional arousal and Is responsible for such physiological changes as increased heart and respiratory rate, Increased blo< d pressure, and pupil dilation.

The nurse monitors Hie temperature, pulse, respiratory rate, and blood pressure every 4 hours or as ordered by Hie primary healfli care provider. If fever is present and Hie patient s temperature suddenly increases or if Hie temperature was normal and suddenly increases, the nurse contacts Hie primary healHi care provider immediately. 

An ongoing assessment is important during therapy widi die tetracyclines, macrolides, and lincosamides. The nurse should take vital signs every 4 hours or as ordered by die primary health care provider. The nurse must notify the primary health care provider if tiiere are changes in the vital signs, such as a significant drop in blood pressure, an increase in die pulse or respiratory rate, or a sudden increase in temperature.

When naloxone is used to reverse respiratory depression and the resulting somnolence, the drug is given stow IV push until the respiratory rate begins to increase and somnolence abates Giving a rapid bolus wilt cause withdrawal and return of intense pain. 

During digitalization, the nurse takes the blood pressure pulse, and respiratory rate every 2 to 4 hours or as ordered by the primary care provider. This time interval may be increased or decreased, depending on die patient s condition and the route used for administration. 

A transient increase in arrhythmias and hypertension may occur within 1 hour after initial therapy with bretylium is begun. The nurse should take the blood pressure and respiratory rate every 5 to 15 minutes and obtain the pulse rate from the cardiac monitor. These activities are continued until the arrhythmia is corrected. 

The tiiyroid hormones influence every organ and tissue of tiie body. These hormones are principally concerned with increasing tiie metabolic rate of tissues, which results in increases in tiie heart and respiratory rate, body temperature, cardiac output, oxygen consumption, and the metabolism of fats, proteins, and carbohydrates. The exact mechanisms by which tiie tiiyroid hormones exert their influence 011 body organs and tissues are not well understood. 

Respiratory Effects. Increased occurrence of dyspnea and increased respiratory rate were noted in 18 agricultural workers in India who applied endosulfan without protective equipment (both dermal and inhalation exposures probably occurred) (Chugh et al. 1998).
