Q

Degree of injury in Pulmonary Oxygen Toxicity is related to ….

A
  • Duration of exposure.
  • O, concentration of delivered oxygen i.e. dose

Generally, O2 concentration >50% is considered toxic.

Q

Mechanism of Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) by Pulmonary Oxygen Toxicity

A

Prolonged exposure to high O2 concentration β†’ Disruption of endothelial lining of pulmonary capillaries β€”-> Leakage of proteinaceous fluid into alveoli —–> Damage β€”-> Cell death.

Q

Where does Hypoventelation & CO2 Narcosis by oxygen toxicity occur?

A

Chronic hypercapnia (PaCO, >45mmHg) why?
- CNS response to elevated CO, level becomes blunted.
- & Hypoxia becomes the main ventilatory stimulus.

Q

Mechanism of Hypoventelation & CO2 Narcosis by oxygen toxicity

A
20
Q

Causes of Absorbtion Atelectasis by O2 Toxicity

A

Decreases Nitrogen in the alveoli: Normally nitrogen not absorbed from the alveoli so keeps alveoli opened.

20
Q

Mechanism of Absorbtion Atelectasis by O2 Toxicity

A

Patients at particular risk

  • More likely to occur in areas distal to partial obstruction of airways, because oxygen is absorbed into blood at a faster rate than it is replaced.
20
Q

Retrolental Fibroplasis in O2 Toxicity

A

Excessive oxygen to premature infants may result in…

  • Constriction of retinal vessels.
  • Retinal detachment.
  • Endothelial cell damage.
  • Possible blindness.
