avg:
60% oxygen saturation corresponds to about ___mmHg PO2 |
40
|
|
avg:
97% oxygen saturation corresponds to about ___mmHg PO2 |
100
|
|
How can we shift the saturation vs PO2 curve rightward and downward?
ie, a lower sat corresponds to higher partial pressure of O2 |
H+ ion increase, ph decrease,
incr CO2 Incr temp incr 2,3-BPG (Bohr effect) |
|
How can we shift the saturation vs PO2 curve leftward and upward?
ie, a higher sat corresponds to lower partial pressure of O2 |
H+ ion decrease
|
|
enzyme catalyzing:
H2O + CO2 --> H2CO3 |
carbonic anhydrase
|
|
What is the respiratory exchange ratio?
|
rate of CO2 output / rate of O2 uptake
|
|
respiratory exchange ratio?
Normals for carbohydrate and fat diets. |
carb diet: R = 1.00
fat diet: R= 0.7 mixed diet: R= 0.825 |
|
3 major groups of The respiratory center
|
Dorsal respiratory group
Ventral respiratory group Pneumotaxic center |
|
"pattern" of breathing: constant inhalation.
|
apneustic breathing
|
|
What is the pneumataxic center
|
(limits inspiration and therefore can increase ventilatory frequency).
|
|
a strong pneumotaxic signal causes what breathing?
|
panting
|
|
respritory group that causes inspiration
|
dorsal
|
|
respritory group that causes expiration
|
ventral
|
|
when the lungs become overly inflated, the stretch receptors activate an appropriate feedback response that “switches off” the inspiratory ramp and thus stops further inspiration.
|
Hering-Breuer effect
|
|
Central vs peripheral receptors. Which are dominant?
|
central
|
|
where are peripheral receptors?
|
carotid bodies and aortic arch
|
|
where are central receptors?
|
brain, CSF
|
|
What are central recptors sensitive to?
|
H+ ion.
BBB does not leet H+ ion to get across, but CO2 can get across and mingle with carbonic anhydrase thus forming H+ |
|
Why are Effects of low oxygen minimal until very low levels are reached if carbon dioxide and hydrogen ion are normal? What does this mean?
|
central receptors
