Exam 3: NSG316 / NSG 316 (Latest Update ) Health Assessment Exam | Questions and Verified Answers | 100% Correct | Grade A - GCU Question: is decreased lung elasticity a normal change? Answer: yes, with age, the elasticity of lung tissue decreases, leading to reduced lung compliance and decreased ability to fully expand the lungs Question: is reduction in respiratory muscle strength a normal change with age? Answer: yes muscles involved in breathing, such as the diaphragm and intercostal muscles, may weaken over time, resulting in decreased respiratory muscle strength Question: is decreased chest wall compliance a normal change with age? Answer: yes chest wall becomes stiffer and less compliant with age, which can contribute to decreased lung expansion Question: are changes in the lung structure normal with age? Answer: yes may be alterations in the structure of the lungs, including decreased alveolar surface area and enlargement of air spaces (senile emphysema), which can affect gas exchange Question: is a reduction in cough reflex normal with age? Answer: yes aging adults may have a diminished cough reflex, leading to less effective clearance of mucus and increased susceptibility to respiratory infections Question: is a decrease in respiratory drive normal with age? Answer: yes sensitivity of respiratory centers in the brain to changes in blood oxygen and carbon dioxide levels may decrease with age, resulting in blunted respiratory responses.
