Hemoglobin
Oxygen carrying component of RBC’s (report as weight / 100ml of blood
Hemoglobin
Oxygen carrying component of RBC’s (report as weight / 100ml of blood.) about 280 milion hgb, pigmented portion of RBC’s (red, significant in SaO2 measurement)
each RBC contains how many heme groups
4 that can each carry 1 molecule of O2
What combines with the O2
FE++ contains about 280 milion hgb, pigmented portion of RBC’s (red, significant in SaO2 measurement)
What combines with the O2
FE++ contains
Each gram of hbg can carry how much O2
1.34 = 20.1 vol %O2
PaO2 of 100=
0.3 mL, 100x0.003= 0.3mL
Oxyhemoglobin Dissociation Curve
percent of O2 attached to hbg in reference to PaO2 and O2 content
Steep Portion of curve
PaO2 of 40-70 mmHg
Upper Plateau of curve
> 70 mmHg
Lower Plateau of curve
anaerobic, in deep do-do!
Reference point on curve
is PaO2 at 50% hemoglobin saturation (P50), done by tonometery, not clinically practical
Right shifts
O2 readily releases
left shift
impairs O2 release
Oxygenation
- O2 Transport- dependant on O2 content (CaO2), cardiac output (CO or QT), Oxyhemoglobin dissociation curve 2. PaO2 normally drawn from? 3.PAO2 4. SaO2 5. A-aDO2 6. PaO2/PAO2 ratio 7. PaO2/FiO2 ratio
PaO2 drawn from
Measured from ABG sample, normal adult range 80-100mmHg, Clinically acceptable to keep in 60-80% range, higher then 125mmHg can reduce blood flow to brain and kidneys, O2 toxicity,
Higher than what mmHg PaO2 can cause what damage
125mmHg can reduce blood flow to brain and kidneys
PAO2 equation
(Pb-47) x FiO2 - (PaCO2/ 0.8), Partial pressure of alveolar O2
SaO2
Functional (oximetry), fractional (includes CoHbg, MetHbg, ect), Carbon Monoxide affinity for hbg is 210x that of O2
A-aDO2 or P(A-a)O2
indicates gas exchange efficiency
PaO2/PAO2 ratio
helpful in predicting FiO2 for desired PaO2
PaO2/FiO2 ratio
Ratio> then 200 indicate an ability to reduce FiO2 or PEEP
Tissue Oxygenation

Oxygen Content
Report as %. -Arterial O2 Content (CaO2) -Venous O2 Content (CvO2) - Pulmonary Capillary O2 Content (CcO2)
Arterial O2 Content (CaO2)
CaO2= (Hbg x 1.34 x SaO2) + (PaO2 x 0.003). Normal is about 20%. Hbg plays the biggest role in O2 number
Venous O2 content (CvO2)
CvO2= (Hbg x 1.34 x SvO2) + (PvO2 x 0.003). Normal is about 15%. Blood obtained from pulmonary artery. PaO2 = 45%, Sat = 75%, Tissue use = 5%
Pulmonary Capillary O2 content (CcO2)
CcO2= (Hbg x 1.34) + (PAO2 x 0.003) assuming its 100% saturated
Arterial- Venous Oxygen Content difference
amount of blood used by cells. CaO2-CvO2. Normal is about 5% (or apporoximately 250mL of O2)
C(a-v)O2=
CaO2 (left heart)- CvO2 (back to heart)
Shunt Equation
Qs/Qt= CcO2-CaO2/ CcO2 - CvO2. Calculates amount of blood that goes through lungs without picking up O2. Normal Range is below 10%. 20-30% Critical. >30% life threatening
Diffusion
from alveoli to capillary, hbg picks up O2 to tissue, creating CO2
1st sign of hypoxia
increase HR
Hemoglobin increases to
help O2 Sats (transfussion)
Oxygen Delivery
Amount of O2 delivered peripheral tissues (capillaries/cells), CO x CaO2 x 10. normal range is 550-650 ml/min/m3. decreased with low PaO2, Hbg, or cardiac output. normal response is increase in CO or increase in Hbg (exercise, high altitude)
Oxygen consumption
amount of O2 used by cells. VO2= COx (CaO2-CvO2) x 10. normal range is 2.86-4.29 ml/min/kg
Oxygen Consumption Index
VO2/BSA (body surface area). Clinically more accurate in determining O2 consumption
Oxygen Extraction Ratio (O2ER)
Amount of O2 Extracted by cells vs. amount avaliable. O2ER= CaO2 -CvO2/ CaO2. report as %. Normal range is approx 25%
Tissue Hypoxia
Hypoxic Hypoxia, Anemic Hypoxia, Circulatory Hypoxia, Histotoic Hypoxia
Oxygen is carried in two forms
Dissolved in plasma, bound to hbg
Dissolved in plasma
Gaseous form of O2 in the plasma, moves around freely, partial pressure is how its measured, PaO2, Dependent on the partial pressure available and temp of blood.
how many ml of O2 in 100ml blood per 1mmhg
0.003. Very small amount of total oxygen content is in the form of dissolved
Bound with hemoglobin
Oxygen diffuses into blood and combines with hbg.
normal hbg
12-16 g/100ml
Each heme/iron group can hold
4 oxygen molecules, when all 4 are full its 100% saturated
Oxyhemoglobin=
hemoglobin with oxygen bound
Deoxyhemoglobin =
hemoglbin without oxygen (reduced hemoglobin)
Each g% carries how many ml of O2
1.34 ml. so to calculate amount of oxygen carried by hbg (1.34 x g%hbg) saturation %
Total Oxygen Content equation
CaO2 = (1.34 x Hbg x O2 sat) + (PaO2 x 0.003)
Oxygen Dissociation Curve y axis
hbg saturation (vertical)
Curve X axis (horizontal)
PaO2
SaO2 over what are in the 90% or greater saturation levels
60mmHg
Curve Safety levels
PaO2 60, SaO2 90. below these levels the O2 content falls rapidly in relation to PaO2
Anemic Hypoxia
hbg= 8.7
Right Shift >
Decrease in pH, increase in Temp-CO2- 2,3 DBG
