Oxygenation Monitoring Flashcards
Arterial Content
17-20 mlO2/dL
Venous content
12-15 mL O2/dL
A-v content difference
4-6 mLO2/dL
Normal Oxygenation Delivery
950-1150mL O2/min
Index 550-650 mLO2/min/m^2
Normal Oxygenation consumption
200-250 mLO2/min
120-160 mLO2/min/m^2
Normal Oxygen reserve
700-800 mLO2/min
450 mLO2/min/m^2
Shivering
50-100% increase in consumption
Sepsis
50-100% increase in consumption
Ischemic hypoxia
Low blood flow caused by:
Obstruction of Vessels
Coronary/cerebral thrombosis or spasms
Peripheral vascular disease
Hypoxemic hypoxia
Inadequate transfer of oxygen from lungs to hemoglobin
Causes:
Hypoxemia pO2 <60mmHg
Carbon monoxide poisoning
Methemoglobin (Fe 2+ to Fe 3+)
Anemic hypoxia
Lack of hemoglobin
Hemorrhage
Nutritional deficiencies
Hematopoietic problems
Dilution
Toxic hypoxia
Inability of cells to uptake oxygen
Causes:
Sepsis
Cyanide toxicity
Ethanol toxicity
Excessive tissue requirements
Oxygen demand higher than the system can supply
Causes:
Hypermetabolism Systemic inflammatory response syndrome Sepsis Delirium Tremens(alcohol withdrawals) Status seizures Thyroid storm Extreme fevers Malignant hyperthermia
Impaired Oxygen unloading
Capillary level causes:
Alkalemia
Hypocarbia
Large dose of prbc
Bohr shift left
