inflated for a couple of weeks compared to latex balloons which can stay inflated for only a couple of days. On the other hand‚ the process of air molecules escaping through tiny holes in their container without colliding with one another is called effusion. This can only happen if the diameter of the hole is relatively smaller than the mean free path of the molecules. According to Graham ’s law‚ the rate at which gases effuse is dependent on their molecular weight; gases with a lower molecular weight

1. Given the diagnosis of pneumothorax‚ explain why the paramedic had difficulty ventilating A.W. • Air escaped from the lung into the pleural space. Eventually‚ enough air collected in the pleural space to cause the mediastinum to shift twoard the right. The collapsed left lung‚ increased intrapleural pressure‚ and rightward shift make it difficult to ventilate A.W. 2. Interpret A.W.’s ABG’s • Significant respiratory acidosis with profound hypoxemia. A.W. is near death. 3. What is the

The patient was admitted principally for a hemo-pneumothorax. A pneumothorax is when there is a partial or complete collapse of the lungs because of air entering through the pleural space around the lungs. Air entering the lungs through the parietal or visceral spaces cause a decrease in negative pressure‚ which causes the lungs to collapse because there is no negative pressure to keep the lungs expanded.
