Oxygenation
Left Vs Right
Patients Right is Deoxygenated
Patients left is Oxygenated
Amplitude of a wave
Height of the wave
1 Ms to seconds
3 decimal places
Congigate base
A more general definition is that a conjugate base is the base member, X-, of a pair of compounds that transform into each other by gaining or losing a proton. The conjugate base is able to gain or absorb a proton in a chemical reaction. The conjugate acid donates the proton or hydrogen in the reaction
Strong Acid - Conjugate Base = weak
Weak Acid - Conjugate Base = Strong
X
Low pka - Strongest Acid
High pka - Weakest Acid
X
Draw information on diagrams
X
H3O+ = H+
X
Fluid can be in 3x places in your body
Intravascular - Inside your veins
Intracellular - In your cells
Interstitial - Outside cells and veins - AKA the 3rd space
Shunt
In medicine, a shunt is a hole or a small passage which moves, or allows movement of, fluid from one part of the body to another.
Why do we have a shunt in our heart as a child?
To avoid sending blood to the lungs as a child because they are not yet oxygenated
Pulse
- Pulse rate?
Distance between two peaks of the same amplitude.
Frequency?
Wave frequency is the number of waves that pass a fixed point in a given time.
Fundamental and resulting resonance
Fundamental - main peak and drop
Resulting resonance - the other peaks
COOH
Carboxylic Acid
