Transport of O2 and CO2 Flashcards
Four types of hypoxia and examples
Histotoxic- cyanide toxicity
Hypoxic- COPD
Anemic-
Stagnant- low CO, PVD
Normal HGB level
15g/dL
How much of the o2 does hgb hold?
65x more than plasma
HGB composition
2 a 2 b= 4 subunits
Normal adult- HbA=a2b2
How much o2 can a gram of hgb hold?
1.34ml
What is oxygen saturation?
Ratio of oxygen bound hgb compared to total amount that can be saturated
Saturation and PaO2
100-100
95-75
90-60
70-40
50-27
CO affinity to HGB
250x more than oxygen
Does not dissociate readily, takes hours to ride CO from body
N2O
Binds hgb 200,000 more strongly than o2
Bind irreversably
For PH
What increases hgb o2 affinity
HALDANE HOLDS O2
Hypothermia
Alkalosis
Low 2,3 DPG
blood transfusions
Carboxyhemoglobin/methemoglobin
CaO2 formula
(1.34 x hgb x sao2) + (pao2 x .003)
CO2 production /min
200ml/min
Exercise increases 6x
Normal Co2 production and O2 consumption
CO2 production- 200ml/min
O2 consumption- 250ml/min
AV difference for O2 and CO2
O2- 50ml/L (90-40)
CO2- 40ml/L (40 in vein 0 in artery)
