Gas Exchange

Requires respiratory and cardiac

Blood flow of heart

Pulmonary valve

Breathing patterns

Bradypnea - regular rate of <12 breaths/min

Gas exchange

Transport oxygen into cells


Transport carbon dioxide out cells

Impaired perfusion

Cardiac related

Impaired ventilation

May come from decrease oxygen level

Impaired ventilation

May come from lack of surfactant, like in newborns

Impaired transport

Can occur when not enough red blood cells like in anemia, blood loss

Impaired perfusion

Occur when cardiac output decreased

Ischemia

Insufficient oxygen supply to the tissues

Hypoxia

Lack of sufficient oxygen reaching cells

Risk factors impaired gas exchange

Infants and young children



Older adults (stiffer chest wall), weaker respiratory muscles to cough, dilated aveoli, decreased pulmonary network, decreased immune response to infection

No modifiable risk factors

Age, air pollution, allergies

Modifiable risk factors gas exchange

Tobacco use, aspiration, tracheal intubation, bed rest, immobility, chronic diseases like COPD, immunosuppression

Decreased hemoglobin

Causes you not to be able to transport oxygen
