Define Oxygen content
|
Oxygen content (CaO2):
Amount of oxygen sent to the tissues in every 100 mL of blood |
|
(CaO2) Normal amount of oxygen delivered to the tissues in every 100 mL/blood
|
20 vol%
CaO2 = (15 x 1.34 x 0.98) + (0.003 x 40) = 20 mL/100 mL blood or 20 Vol% |
|
Define Oxygen Consumption a.k.a. O2 Uptake (VO2)
|
Amount of oxygen used by the tissues in one minute; (difference of oxygen sent and oxygen returned)
|
|
Give the normal amount of oxygen used by the tissues in 1 minute (VO2)
|
250 ml oxygen per minute
VO2 = QT [C(a-v)O2 x 10] or VO2 = CO(CaO2 – CvO2) |
|
Define Oxygen Delivery (DO2)
|
Oxygen delivery (DO2) is the total amount of oxygen delivered to tissues in 1 min.
|
|
What is the normal amount of: Total Oxygen Delivered (DO2) to the tissues in 1 minute
|
1,000 mL/min or 1L/min
DO2 = QT x (CaO2 x 10) |
|
Of the total amount of oxygen delivered to the tissues in 1 minute, how much is utilized by the cells?
|
Only 25% of the total amt. delivered is utilized; the other 75% returns to the lungs to be re-oxygenated
|
|
How does an increased altitude (decreased barometric P) affect the pressure of inspired oxygen?
|
As the Pb decreases (higher altitude) the PiO2 is reduced
|
|
What is the normal partial pressure of arterial oxygen (PaO2)
|
80-100 mmHg
|
|
What is the normal partial pressure of mixed venous oxygen (PvO2)
|
40 mmHg
|
|
What is the normal alveolar partial pressure of oxygen (PAO2)
|
100-673 mmHg
|
|
What is the normal alveolar-arterial oxygen tension gradient - P(A-a)O2
|
FiO2 of 0.21 = <30 mmHg
FiO2 of 1.00 = <60 mmHg |
|
What is the normal ratio of PaO2 to partial pressure of alveolar oxygen (PaO2/PAO2)
|
0.8 - 1.0
or 80 - 100% |
|
What is the normal ratio of PaO2 to fractional inspired oxygen (PaO2 range 80-100; FiO2 of 0.21)
|
380-475
|
|
Normal saturation of arterial oxygen (SaO2)
|
97%
|
|
Normal saturation of mixed venous oxygen (SvO2)
|
75%
|
|
Normal oxygen content of arterial blood (CaO2)
|
20 vol%
20 mL/100 mL 20 mL/dL |
|
Normal oxygen content of mixed venous blood (CvO2)
|
15 vol%
15 mL/100 mL 15 mL/dL |
|
Normal arterial to mixed venous oxygen content difference - C(a-v)O2
|
3.5 - 5 mL/dL
|
|
Normal oxygen delivery (DO2)
|
1000 mL/min
|
