Q

What can cause O2 dissociation curve to shift to the right?

A

Decreased affinity –> more readily deliver O2 to tissues, e.g. during exercise
Increased temperature, increased PCO2
decreased pH

Q

How do you calculate PAO2?

A

PAO2 = [(Pbaro - 47mmHg) x FiO2] - (PaCO2/R)

16
Q

Pro-thrombotic

A

Activation of platelets and clotting factors; antifibrinolytic effects

17
Q

Anti-thrombotic

A

Inhibition of platelets, breakdown of ADP, inhibitory effects on coagulation factors, fibrinolysis: cleaves fibrin, degrades thrombi

18
Q

Risk factors for acquired hypercoagulability

A

High Risk of Thrombosis

  • Prolonged bed rest/immobilization.
  • MI, Atrial Fibrillation, prosthetic cardiac valves.
  • Tissue injury(surgery, burn, fracture).
  • Cancer.
19
Q

Pulmonary embollism

A

The most serious form of venous thrombo-embolism occurs when a thrombosis (blood clot) dislodges from a deep vein usually in the lower extremity, and embolizes (travels) through the right side of the heart to the pulmonary circulation
