 | | When we come to discuss acute lung injury, we will see that it is the pressure distending the alveolus that is critical in determining whether we injure the lung with our ventilation. |  | | Also note that because the surface tension is lowered, the negative pressure in the fluid lining the alveolus is correspondingly decreased, and thus there may be a decrease in the pressure driving fluid from the vasculature into the alveolus! |  | | We know that air flow is impeded by airway resistance, and also because of the elastic properties of the lung and chest wall. |

 | | Local areas of collapsed alveoli when plugged by mucus, a condition called atelectasis (patients, volunteers). |  | | This damage was probably caused by a highly reactive form of the oxygen molecule called the oxygen free radical, which destroyed proteins and membranes in the epithelial cells. |  | | Because the oxygen concentration is high in the air and low in the blood entering the pulmonary capillary, oxygen flows or diffuses from the air into the blood. |
