Oxygen Deficiencies

Cystic Fibrosis
Created by: Madison Perez and Rane Dutcher

Cystic fibrosis
An inherited life-threatening disorder that causes damage to the persons
lungs and digestive system.
Its rare, and it cannot be cured.
Symptoms usually occur early childhood.
A disease that needs Supplemental Oxygen.

What is affects and how?


The lungs and digestive system is blocked with a thick, sticky mucus.
Air cant get through mucus.
Sugar cant get through digestive tract.
Cellular Respiration cannot occur.
Homeostasis cannot stay in balance.
Cells will die without oxygen

Respiratory System
Functions of Respiratory system:

Nasal Cavity: It is lined with a mucous membrane that helps keep your nose moist by making mucus so you won't
get nosebleeds from a dry nose. There are also little hairs that help filter the air you breathe in, blocking dirt and dust
from getting into your lungs.

Pharynx: A tubular structure, positioned behind the oral and nasal cavities, that allows air to pass from the mouth to
the lungs.

Larynx: The hollow muscular organ forming an air passage to the lungs and holding the vocal cords in humans and
other mammals; the voice box.

Trachea: Connects the larynx to the bronchi and allows air to pass through the neck and into the lungs.

Lungs: Is to help oxygen from the air we breathe enter the red cells in the blood. also help the body to get rid of CO 2
gas when we breathe out.

Respiratory System continued

Bronchi: To carry air from the trachea into the lungs. Smooth muscle tissue in their walls helps to regulate
airflow into the lungs.

Bronchioles: The passageways by which air passes through the nose or mouth to the alveoli (air sacs) of the
lungs, in which branches no longer contain cartilage or glands in their submucosa. They are branches of the
bronchi, and are part of the conducting zone of the respiratory system.

Alveoli: Gas exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide takes place in the alveoli. Oxygen from the inhaled air
diffuses through the walls of the alveoli and adjacent capillaries into the red blood cells. The oxygen is then
carried by the blood to the body tissues.

Diaphragm: The muscle that separates the chest (thoracic) cavity from the abdomen. The diaphragm is the
main muscle of respiration. Contraction of the diaphragm muscle expands the lungs during inspiration when one
is breathing air in.

What is Supplemental Oxygen?

Extra oxygen, a gas that your body needs to work well.

Normally, your lungs absorb oxygen from the air.

Allows energy and nutrients to get to the body and without that neither homeostasis or feedback
loops could occur.

It also may help:


Decrease shortness of breath and fatigue (tiredness).
Improve sleep in some people who have sleep-related breathing disorders.
Increase the lifespan of some people who have COPD.

How does it help?


Supplemental oxygen helps patients get the amount of oxygen they need.
It doesn't breath for you.
Helps more oxygen get to where you need it from breathing
Increases diffusion rate by forcing more oxygen into the lungs.

Anaerobic Respiration
Anaerobic means "without oxygen."
High-intensity activities including sprinting and weightlifting.
During these activities the body cannot provide enough oxygen to account for normal aerobic respiration.
Your heart rate elevates to near maximum levels, attempting to pump more oxygenated blood, but it cannot keep up.
At this point, anaerobic respiration kicks in, converting glucose into ATP and creating a waste product known as
lactic acid.
Your body can absorb only so much lactic acid before your muscles cramp and seize.
This is why anaerobic respiration is sustainable only for short periods.

Aerobic Respiration
Aerobic means "with oxygen."
Aerobic exercise and activities are characterized by a slightly elevated heart rate.
Allows you to continue the activities for long periods.
Aerobic respiration uses sustainable pathways for creating energy for your muscles.
Oxygen allows your body to convert glucose into ATP more efficiently.
Without creating excess waste products.
During aerobic activities:
Your heart rate increases providing oxygen.

Cellular Respiration
Formula: C6H12O6 + O2 = 6 CO2 + 6 H20 + energy
Needs sugar and oxygen to get energy
Cant create energy

Diffusion
The movement of molecules across a membrane from a high concentrated area to a low concentrated
area.
Diffusion effects:
When breathing in, oxygen enters our lungs.
Carbon dioxide flows in our bloodstream with unoxygenated blood cells.
The lung is like the membrane for diffusion.
The carbon dioxide will diffuse out into the lung for exhalation.
The oxygen would diffuse in to oxygenate the blood.
Will not let wastes go out or oxygen come in.

Homeostasis
Body is in balance.
When off balance needs energy and oxygen.
Feedback loop occurs.
Without Energy and oxygen
Body stays off balance.

Feedback Loop
The way the body stays in homeostasis
Constant working
Three different loops:
Body Temperature
Body Water
Body Oxygen

Why are we telling you this?


Oxygen tubing accommodations:
Retractable (charger)
Led lights
Scented oxygen (after time, oxygen begins to becomes nauseating with an unpleasant smell)
Tubing cozy (tubes get brittle in cold)
Mouth acessories
Stylized tubing
Heat sensitive (colors)

Thank you for your time

Help kids with Cystic fibrosis and


maybe one day well be able to have a
cure for them.
