Inability to release air that has become trapped in the alveoli.
Explanation:
When a client with emphysema experiences shortness of breath and uses pursed-lip breathing and accessory muscles of respiration, the nurse may determine that the cause is an inability to breathe deeply due to obstruction by alveoli.
<h3>What is it and what is the composition of alveoli?</h3>
Capillary cells, alveolar epithelial type 1 cells, and alveolar epithelial type 2 cells make up the alveolus.
Large, squamous epithelial cells known as type 1 cells occupy around 95% of the alveoli surface area.
The adult lungs contain between 300 million and 500 million alveoli. These air sacs are lined with a coating of water, which promotes gas diffusion within the alveoli.
Within the alveoli, a surfactant is created to lessen the surface tension. As a result, the alveoli don't collapse during exhalation.
