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 |
