Types Of Hypoxia Flashcards
1
Q
(+) Alveolar HYPOVENTILATION (HIGH PaCO2)
(+) Hypoxemia (LOW PaO2)
A
HYPOXIC hypoxia
2
Q
DECREASED Hgb
DECREASED Hgb saturation with O2 (SaO2) expected for a given PaO2
Ex: CO poisoning or Methemoglobin
A
ANEMIC hypoxia
3
Q
DECREASED CO
A
STAGNANT hypoxia
4
Q
Impaired O2 extraction —> DECREASED CaC2-CvO2 and INCREASED SVO2
A
HISTOTOXIC Hypoxia
