Welcome to this informational website, all about the respiratory system. The respiratory system is one of the 11 organ systems in the human body. This system in short keeps blood supplied with oxygen and removes carbon dioxide.
Here, you can gain knowledge about many aspects of the respiratory system, including the anatomy and physiology of it, in addition to information about common homeostatic imbalances, with reasons as to why they occur.
Learn how to perform the Heimlich Maneuver, in case you come across a person choking and in need of assistance.
Interesting statistics and facts are included as well, about smoking, lung cancer, asthma, and more.
If you would like to gain even more knowledge about this system, or you would like to contribute somehow, information about helpful organizations/resources are available, such as the American Lung Association and the Smile Train.
Comment boxes are also available if you should have any questions regarding any of the information presented, or anything having to do with the respiratory system.
Enjoy. :)
