Summary
Thoracic Cavity Pressure
is crucial for respiration, as it facilitates the
Movement Of Air
into and out of the lungs by creating a
Pressure Gradient
. Changes in this pressure are primarily driven by the diaphragm and
Intercostal Muscles
during inhalation and exhalation, affecting
Venous Return
and
Cardiac Function
as well.
