Respiratory distress tachypnea grunting retractions flaring coarse breath sounds mixed acidosis hypoxia
Made by?
Type II pneumocytes ~23 weeks, inadequate until ~32 weeks 70-80% phospholipids Prevents high surface tension
Detected by?
Made of?
Works by?
Laplaces Law
Pressure = 2x tension/ radius If surface tension equal smaller alveolus empties into larger alveolus Surface tension of different sized alveoli not constant- smaller alveoli have lower surface tension
