PvCO2 = 46mmHg

18
Q

Apnea

A

Cessation of breathing

19
Q

PACO2

A

Partial pressure of carbon dioxide in alveolar gas

20
Q

PaO2

A

Partial pressure of O2 in arterial blood

21
Q

Total lung capacity

A

IRV + TV + ERV + RV

The total lung capacity is the maximum volume to which the lungs can be expanded with the greatest possible effort (about 5800 milliliters).

22
Q

PAO2

A

Partial pressure of oxygen in alveolar gas

23
Q

PaCO2

A

Partial pressure of CO2 in arterial blood

24
Q

CaO2

A

Total concentration of oxygen in arterial blood

25
Q

PvO2

A

Partial pressure of O2 in venous blood

26
Q

PO2

A

Partial pressure of O2

27
Q

Vital capacity

A

IRV + TV + ERV

This capacity is the maximum amount of air a person can expel from the lungs after first filling the lungs to their maximum extent and then expiring to the maximum extent (about 4600 milliliters).

28
Q

VA

A

Volume of alveolar gas

29
Q

R

A

Respiratory exchange ratio

30
Q

Inspiratory capacity

A

IRV + TV

This capacity is the amount of air (about 3500 milliliters) a person can breathe in, beginning at the normal expiratory level and distending the lungs to the maximum amount.
