What are receptive fields and why is this an important concept in the study of sensation and perception? (Your answer should include a in depth discussion of the concept receptive fields as it applies to all major sensory modalities). You may use drawings to help in your explanation but there must be substantial written elaboration.

Case Study num11

You are doing a clinical on the medical-surgical floor of a local hospital when Mr. B arrives from the emergency room. Mr. B is a 32-year-old who was thrown off his bicycle in an accident; he has three fractured ribs and a punctured lung. In the ER, they inserted a chest tube to drain air and fluid out of his pleural cavity, allowing his lungs to re-expand. He had one dose of Demerol 3 hours ago for pain and a second dose just before transfer, according to the telephone report from the ER nurse.

1. How does removing air from the chest allow the lungs to expand?  

-

Mr. B has been transferred to your floor to wait and see whether the chest tube allows his lungs to completely re-expand. But when he arrives, he is in severe respiratory distress. He says “I felt better before I came into the ER! Is this tube doing anything?”

-

You tell the Clinical Nurse Specialist (CNS). As the two of you move him into the bed, you notice that his chest tube bottle is lying on its side on the gurney, with air going into it. When you point this out to the CNS, she immediately grabs the bottle and sets it upright on the floor. You see air start bubbling through the fluid right away. “That was the problem!” she says. “They lost the water seal, and air was going into his chest from the bottle. You would not believe how many times that happens on transport.”

When you examine Mr. B, you have trouble detecting his lung sounds on the left. Even stranger, his apical heart sound is in the wrong place--it is over toward the right side of his chest. His respiration rate and heart rate are both increased, and he is struggling to breathe. “Let's give him a little oxygen. He’ll be a lot better in a half-hour,” says the CNS. “Check back on him.”

2. Why would accumulation of air in his pleural space cause his heart sounds to be in the wrong place?

-

While Mr. B is recovering, you check on your other patients. Mrs. H, a 57-year-old first-day post-cholecystectomy patient, is also showing signs of rapid breathing, increased heart rate, and decreased pulse oximeter readings. You ask if she has been using her incentive spirometer to make sure she breathes deeply, and she says, “It hurts my belly incision. There wasn’t anything wrong with my lungs anyway.”

“There will be if you don't use it! You really need to do that at least once an hour. It's to keep your alveoli from collapsing.”

“Why would they collapse? The doctors didn't do anything to them, unless that anesthesia gas was toxic.”

3. Why would a post-surgical patient's lungs collapse if there was nothing wrong with them before surgery?

-

4. Explain the role of surfactant in the lungs.

Harold has had a history of malnutrition secondary to a severe eating disorder. He fatigued very easily, suffers from SOB and dizziness. A CBC shows a hematocrit below 35% and a blood smear shows macrocytic red blood cells. What is Harold’s presumptive diagnosis? How can the immediate condition be treated? What is meant by macrocytic? What is the normal CBC range for a male?
