(3) ALVEOLAR GAS EXCHANGE lecture Flashcards
diffusion
gases reach end of terminal broncli by what?
hases move to and with in alveoli by?
gases move across respiratory epitheliulm by?
ficks law?
fluid flow
diffusion
diffusion
diffusion
.
the more soluble a gas is the more it will diffues across
need ot worry about carbon dioxid and oxygen
what are the limitations of diffusion?
DONT NOT UNDERSTAND THIS CHART
goes from 40 to 100 mucrey partal pressure
N2O- moves arcoss wall and combinds with hemoglobin, floats around freely
blood flow is prefusion
if there is no prefusion then there is no No2 transfered??
need explnation for this one
Oxgen- behaves normally as a perfusion limited gas
diffusion capacity
.
have mixed venus blood (PVo2) arriving at the cappilary
partial pressure of mixed venus blood oxygen at (37)
then goes up to alveolar gas Pco2 106mmhg
venus add mixure is the second to lasd row
PO2 normal curve is at top
adnomral diffusion goes to right
then horrible diffusion is far right
at 25 you can still see the systems falures of diffusion
2 ways you can expose lack of oxygen trasnfer
you can make them excerise or give them a hypoxic gas mixture
diffuction capacity of CO carbon dioxid
diffusion is 20X faster then O2. 400mL
diffusion capacity increases upon exersise due to
artieralized at 40. 5 milimiter differance can drive the rate cuases of solubility
effects of impaired diffustion: and major causes of hypoxemia
