Answer:

A- When a person hyperventilates, they have a respiratory rate characteristic of deep and rapid breathes.

B- When a person breathes from a paper bag, the person will be able to hold his breath longer because the person breathes in some CO2 which increases arterial CO2.

Explanation:

When a person hyperventilates, there is deep and rapid breathing which causes the body to lose CO2. An equilibrium between what the body breathes in and breathes out is important in maintaining steady respiration. However, hyperventilation disrupts this balance, causing the individual to breathe out more than he breathes in. A significant loss of CO2 can cause tissues to begin to malfunction.

Breathing into a paper bag helps the person breathe some of the exhaled CO2 back into the blood. Rebreathing from a closed system such as a paperbag or mask, will cause arterial CO2 to increase and arterial O2 to decrease. This will cause a level of relief that makes the individual able to hold his/her breath longer, though not as long as the baseline duration due to gradual recovery from the hyperventilation

A 6-year-old boy has a 1-year history of moderate persistent asthma that is normally well controlled with budesonide via dry pow
Kay [80]

Answer:

A peak expiratory flow (PEF) measurement

Explanation:

The peak expiratory flow (PEF), or peak expiratory flow rate (PEFR), is a person's maximum speed of expiration, as measured with a peak flow meter, a small, hand-held device used to monitor a person's ability to breath out air. It measures the airflow through the bronchi and thus the degree of obstruction in the airways. Peak expiratory flow is typically measured in units of liters per minute (L/min).

Measurements may be based on 1 second or less but are usually reported as a volume per minute. Electronic devices will sample the flow and multiply the same volume (Liters) by 60, divided by the sample (seconds) for a result measured in L/minute: (sample volume*60)/sample time.

Peak flow readings are often classified into 3 zones of measurement according to the American Lung Association, green, yellow, and red.

Green zone: 80 to 100 percent of the usual or normal peak flow readings are clear. A peak flow reading in the green zone indicates that the asthma is under good control.

Yellow zone: 50 to 59 percent of the usual or normal peak flow readings. Indicates caution. It may mean respiratory airways are narrowing and additional medication may be required.

Red zone: less than 50 percent of the usual or normal peak flow readings. Indicates medical emergency. Severe airway narrowing may be occurring and immediate action needs to be taken. This would usually involve contacting a doctor or hospital.
