    The lung

    Area of Science:

    • Pulmonary physiology
    • Respiratory system mechanics

    Context:

    • The cough reflex is a vital airway clearance mechanism.
    • Normal cough function develops late in gestation.

    Purpose:

    • To describe the physiological mechanisms of the cough reflex.
    • To highlight the developmental timeline of cough reflexes.
    • To introduce flow-volume curves as a diagnostic tool.

    Summary:

    • Coughing involves glossopharyngeal and vagal nerve stimulation, leading to glottic closure and increased intrathoracic pressure.
    • This pressure is rapidly released, expelling air to clear the lungs.
    • Mature cough mechanisms are established around the 35th gestational week.

    Impact:

    Related Experiment Videos

  • Understanding cough physiology aids in diagnosing respiratory conditions.
  • Flow-volume curves offer a non-invasive method for assessing lung function and cough effectiveness.
