what is a division of the trachea?
822354
Division of trachea and intubation across operative field permit dissection of densely adherent lesion. D) Posterolateral sutures are placed. Proximal airway is advanced and anterior sutures are placed. This represents a case of tracheal stenosis, but the same principles apply for tracheal tumors. (Reproduced with permission

It's a tracheotomy tube. The nursing staff should have shown your husband and you how to care for the trek area. Contact the doctor's office and see if they can tell you the proper cleaning methods or possibly give you instructions on paper.

Looks like it is one word.  \n\nSeptum, interatrial: The wall separating the upper chambers (the atria) of the heart. A hole in the interatrial septum is termed an atrial septal defect (ASD).  http://www.medterms.com/script/main/art.asp?articlekey=5457\n\nInteratrial septum: The partition separating the upper chambers (the atria) of the heart.  http://www.talkmedical.com/medical-dictionary/7615/Interatrial-Septum

First the diaphragm under the lung expands creating an area of low pressure in the lungs leading to the air from outside the body to rush into the mouth to the trachea to the bronchi to bronchi oles and then to alveoli. The lung is like a sponge and has an increasingly small system of tubes that are lined with microscopic alveoli that are lined with capillaries. When O2 molecules reach the alveoli they diffuse oppositely to carbon dioxide which is the body's waste gas. The blood cells go from the capillaries in the alveoli to venules to the pulmonary vein where it enters the left atrium and then goes to the left ventricle where it is rushed out of the heart through the aorta where it divides into other arteries, arterioles, and then capillaries.

Lots of variables go into considering a tracheostomy.  Has this person been intubaqted before?  What is the diagnosis and prognosis?  How long has this intubation been?  I agree with Dr Arm....a week usually is long enough to know prognosis.  Another thought is how mentally aware is this person?  Is there a problem...or has there been a problem with aspiration post stroke because the vocal cords are paralyzed?  Will this person need frequent deep suctioning to keep the airway clear and will this need be indefinate.  Intubation is a temporary answer for protecting the airway,  Tracheostomy is long term and sometimes permant answer for protecting the airway.

Respiration is achieved through the mouth, nose, trachea, lungs, and diaphragm. Oxygen enters the respiratory system through the mouth and the nose. The oxygen then passes through the larynx (where speech sounds are produced) and the trachea which is a tube that enters the chest cavity. In the chest cavity, the trachea splits into two smaller tubes called the bronchi. Each bronchus then divides again forming the bronchial tubes. The bronchial tubes lead directly into the lungs where they divide into many smaller tubes which connect to tiny sacs called alveoli. The average adult's lungs contain about 600 million of these spongy, air-filled sacs that are surrounded by capillaries. The inhaled oxygen passes into the alveoli and then diffuses through the capillaries into the arterial blood. Meanwhile, the waste-rich blood from the veins releases its carbon dioxide into the alveoli. The carbon dioxide follows the same path out of the lungs when you exhale. \n\nThe diaphragm's job is to help pump the carbon dioxide out of the lungs and pull the oxygen into the lungs. The diaphragm is a sheet of muscles that lies across the bottom of the chest cavity. As the diaphragm contracts and relaxes, breathing takes place. When the diaphragm contracts, oxygen is pulled into the lungs. When the diaphragm relaxes, carbon dioxide is pumped out of the lungs. \n\nThese links should help.

The heart is divided into the upper right atria and upper left atria (plural atrium), and the lower right and left ventricles. A septum divides them. Blood from the veins carries oxygen depleted blood, fewer red blood cells, to the heart and the arteries carry oxygen enriched blood to the body. It is the hearts job, a poweful muscle, to pump blood through the body.\n\nFor more imformation please click on the blue link below in the sources box.

The trachea in reptiles is similar to that of higher vertebrates, with well-developed hyaline rings.  However, there is no mucociliary transport mechanism to aid the removal of foreign substances from the respiratory tract.  Furthermore, the absence of a diaphragm prevents the animal from coughing. \n\nThe lungs are similar to the avian-type system with a series of reticulated open-ended sacs and many capillaries in close proximity.  The cranial part of the reptile lung is the gaseous exchange portion, while the caudal part functions as an air sac.  The latter may act as a reserve of air during periods of apnoea. \n\nAlveolar macrophages are present in the reptilian lung, but may display poor bacterial removal if the animal is being kept below its optimal temperature. \n\nIn snakes, the right lung is larger than the left, and generally stretches from the heart to the kidney.  It may extend even further down to the cloaca in some aquatic snakes.  Some snakes have a tracheal lung on the dorsal aspect of the trachea, which enables the snake to breathe when the main lung is compressed by swallowed prey.

Nose/Mouth then Pharynx, Trachea, Bronchus, Alveoli,and then reverse for exhalation. 10 marks please, yippee ki yay!

Division 1, Division 2 and Division 3.\n\nKidding, i think the base, handle and the eyepiece/nose piece.\nNot sure though.

if you cant talk, air is not passing thru your trachea

The nasal septum separates the left and right airways in the nose, dividing the two nostrils.\n\nThe nasal septum is composed of the ethmoid bone, vomer bone and the quadrangular cartilage. The nasal septum can depart from the centreline of the nose; this condition is known as a deviated septum-.\n\nAn operation to the nasal septum is known as a septoplasty.

Combi tube has an esophageal port and a tracheal port, it has 2 balloons on the tube.  It is used mostly in an emergency situation and does not require visualization of the larynx. It can be placed in either the trachea or the esophagus. Since you place it in blindly, it usually ends up in the esophagus.  An ET tube has one port and one balloon, and visualization of the larynx is required.
