Normal V/Q ratio (ventilation perfusion)
0.8–4L in/ 5L out
Left shift of oxyhemoglobin dissociation curve
affinity increases for 02 so when gets to tissue it wont drop off
Right shift on oxyhemoglobin dissociation curve
affinity is weak so drop off quicker
anything that increases your metabolic rate will shift cure to the right
things that shift the oxyhem curv to the left
decrease paco2
decreased temp
increased ph
things that shift oxyhem curv to the right
increased paco2
increased temp
decreased ph
heliox used for
obsturcitve airway diseases–lighter density than o2 so can get past obsturctions
nio2
used in Pulm HTN, pulm vasodilator–start at 20 and move down, monitor methemoglobin
decreases intermpulmonary shunting
minute volume
RR x TV
1 hrz on oscilator =
60 breath per minute
amplitude on oscilator contorls
TV–if want to remove more co2 go down on amp
c02 levels indicate
ventilation and airflow
ways to correct co2 levels
adjust rate, PIP, and tidal volume
pa02 levels indicate
oxygenation and o2 delivery
ways to ajust pao2
adjust peep (FRC) and fio2
what peep indicates need for oscilator
