Video Summary:
Understanding of lung mechanics starts with understanding pressures in respiratory system. In this video I have explained pleural pressure and intrapleural pressure (or simply pleural pressure). Alveolar pressure is pressure in alveoli. When no air is moving and glottis is open, entire airway including alveoli are in balance with atmospheric pressure. So pressure is 0 cm of water. This is the situation just before starting inspiration or expiration. During inspiration it falls to negative value to suck air from atmosphere and during expiration it becomes positive which drives the expulsion of air. Pleural pressure is negative due to opposing force by lung and chest wall on pleural space. Elastic recoil of lung pulls the pleura inward and elastic recoil of chest wall pulls it outwards. Drainage of lymphatics also contribute in vacuum. In this discussion I haven't touched transmural pressure.

This was really good!! I just have one question- at 2:42, did you mean pleural pressure is considered uniform from apex to the base of lung?

@NonstopNeuron 3 года назад

yes, from apex to base

@khadijah3343 3 года назад

@@NonstopNeuron thank you!

@Dr.Aakanksha Год назад

Sir from base to apex pleural pressure is decreasing ( as more -ve pressure at apex and less -ve at base) but usually from base to apex pleural pressure is considered uniform Correct me if i am wrong ?

@johnadrianurbano1976 2 года назад

@fasiurrehmankhoso3289 2 года назад

It cleared my concept but there is one question sticking in my mind that if pleural pressure has been decreased by expansion of chest wall then it must increase a little bit due to expansion of lung during inspiration cause visceral pleura comes a little bit closer to parietal pleura than it was before.

@NonstopNeuron 2 года назад

How do I explain...!!! Don't over think. Think in terms of cause effect sequence. And remember that everything is happening simultaneously but to understand them better, we think in terms of cause effect sequence. I hope you figure out yourself by this hint.

@roaajafar6218 Год назад

Can you explain how the intrapulmonary pressure return back to zero at the end of inspiration and expiration 🙏🏻

@NonstopNeuron Год назад

during inspiration/expiration, air moves due to pressure difference between atmosphere and in respiratory tract. This happens till there is pressure difference. Evantually the pressure inside the tract equilibrates with that of atmosphere. So we have 0 pressure at the end of inspiration/expiration.

What does mean of ' of water ' ? I really did not get it. Plz explain or someone plz explain it. Else what a great lecture thanks a lot. Stay blessed . You really helped so many huamns in such great way.😊

@medicalscience1528 Год назад

@@NonstopNeuron Can you answer one more of my.question ... in the alveolar and pleural ( or overall pressure in lung we have been studying ) does positive pressure mean , we have more air in alveoli so that in the lung than outer atmosphere ? And negative pressure mean that inside the alveoli air is comparatively lesser ? So lesser the pressure is . And that is the reason that air moves from outer atmosphere to inside lung as from higher to lower concentration ? During inspiration . And from lung to outward as in expiration ? Thank you.

@NonstopNeuron Год назад

Absolutely yes. Because you used the word "concentration" later on, I am assuming that by more or less air, you mean more or less air density, and not volume. Just mentioning this because volume difference does not drive movement. But you already don't seem to have that confusion. So in short, the answer is yes.

@paolam.3571 2 года назад

Nice video. I just have one doubt. The pressure inside the pleura is negative bcs of the opposing forces of the lungs and the chest wall. But when we inhale both chest wall and lungs expand outside in same direction so i didn't understand that. Hope you can respond🙏

@NonstopNeuron 2 года назад

When inspiring, our efforts expand chest wall, that creates even more negative pressure in pleura i.e vaccum is created. As nothing except lungs is there to fill that vaccum, lungs expand

@NonstopNeuron 2 года назад

In case of injury when air can enter the pleura, air fills that vaccum and lungs can collapse due to its tendency. That's what happens in pneumothorax.

@mohammedbilal8463 2 года назад

@@NonstopNeuron so at the moment when lung expand , doesn't the intra pleural presuure increases and goes back to -5?

@NonstopNeuron 2 года назад

Yes.. expansion of lungs balances the decrease in intra pleural pressure during inspiration.

@gostudyrahi7272 3 года назад

Can u explain what will happen to lung in pneumothorax? Will both chest and lung collapse or just one of them

@NonstopNeuron 3 года назад

They both try to take their resting position. So lung collapses because of inward recoil of its elastic tissue. And chest wall expands because pleura can no longer pull it inward. Watch this video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-H5W9PrLd3MI.html It will help with underlying concepts. I hope it helps.

@srinivasan7892 2 года назад

How interpleural pressure remains -7.5mmhg when visceral pleura also expands during inspiration??? Please answer this..

@fasiurrehmankhoso3289 2 года назад

That's my question as well and I am searching this for several days

@DrXan-om2lk Год назад

The intrapleural volume has increased comparatively , as inspiration is an active process , which includes movement of chest walls and muscles . The chest wall has moved further away , hence the increase in volume and decrease in pressure . According to boyles, P=1/V

@DrXan-om2lk Год назад

The movement of chest wall is more compared to the expansion of lungs .

@nrutyageethika 3 года назад

Very nice sir..... thank you

@NonstopNeuron 3 года назад

@tomcruise9317 Год назад

When we inspire chest wall increaae intra plural pressure become -2 to-5 but when this happen lung volume too increase so we cant maintain the -5 pressure i.e trans pulmonary pressure which was 0-(-2) =2 initially after inspiration (before air entry) 0-(-5)=5 so this 5 trans mural pressure will make the lung to inflate and the intra plural pressure will get decreaaed to 2 ....butvin book its at end of inspiration intra plural pressure will be 5 is given can you explain

@NonstopNeuron Год назад

Values may vary from book to book. But your overall understanding seems to be right, which is more important.

@tomcruise9317 Год назад

@@NonstopNeuron no its not about value im asking about the concept during end of inspiration intraplural pressure is -6 mmhg as per book (initially -2) but i am asking how can it happen if chest wall increases then negativity intraplural pressure is increased but this negative plural pressure will cause the lung to inflate as pulmonary pressur is 0 i mean this inflated lung will nutralise the negative pressure to intial negative 2

@Shawtyy459 10 месяцев назад

What will happen if negative intrapleural pressure is not maintained even during exhalation ? Lungs will collapse but how ? Is there air in pleural cavity that will escape when negative pressure is not maintained ? Please help

@NonstopNeuron 10 месяцев назад

Whenever lungs collapse, its due to their elastic nature. There is no air in pleural cavity. However air might enter in pleural cavity in chest injury. In that case the negative pressure is lost (as pleural cavity comes in contact with atmospheric pressure due to injury) so the lungs collapse. I hope it helps.

@NonstopNeuron 3 года назад

You're welcome 😊

@leenalsayeh206 2 года назад

THANK YOU ! but I have a question ... why do the lungs expand when the interpleural pressure becomes -6 during inspiration ? doesnt it have collapsing force ?

@NonstopNeuron 2 года назад

The pleura is attached to ribs, kind of fixed to it. And it surrounds the lung. So negative pressure in the pleura sucks the lung from all around outside the lung. So lungs expand. I hope it's clear now

@NonstopNeuron Год назад

Not normally. You might be confusing it with alveolar pressure.
