Pleural pressure, or Ppl, is the pressure surrounding the lung, within the pleural space. During quiet breathing, the pleural pressure is negative; that is, it is below atmospheric pressure. The pleura is a thin membrane which invests the lungs and lines the walls of the thoracic cavity.
Intrapleural pressure depends on the ventilation phase, atmospheric pressure, and the volume of the intrapleural cavity. [2] At rest, there is a negative intrapleural pressure. This provides a transpulmonary pressure, causing the lungs to expand.
24 Φεβ 2023 · Intrapleural pressure is the pressure of the air within the pleural cavity, between the visceral and parietal pleurae. Similar to intra-alveolar pressure, intrapleural pressure also changes during the different phases of breathing.
7 Φεβ 2017 · Elasticity of the lung or elastic recoil as well as the distension of the lung in the pleural cavity are responsible for the so called “negative pressure” in the pleural space. In a healthy lung with normal elastic recoil intrapleural pressure oscillates around 10 mbar.
Another study of 57 patients identified 9 with post-thoracentesis pneumothorax. 58 In those with pneumothorax, the most negative pleural pressure during thoracentesis was −10.8 cm H 2 O in patients with an expandable lung and −17.3 cm H 2 O in those with a nonexpandable lung.
18 Σεπ 2016 · Any theory for pleural pressure needs to explain certain crucial facts, including that the lung and chest walls exert an equal and opposite recoil pressure . It would need to explain the negative values for pleural pressure, and why apical pleural pressure is more negative than at the base.
24 Ιουλ 2023 · The pleural cavity always maintains a negative pressure. During inspiration, its volume expands, and the intrapleural pressure drops. This pressure drop decreases the intrapulmonary pressure as well, expanding the lungs and pulling more air into them.
