PaO2 trend with age?
It decreases by 4 with each decade after 20yo

i.e.
20 = 96-104
30 = 92-100
60 = 79-87
etc
Equation for amount of O2 dissolved in plasma?
PaO2 x .003
Equation for amount of O2 bound to Hb?
Hb x 1.34 x SaO2
Normal Arterial Oxygen Content = ??
~20vol%
Normal amount of O2 bound to Hb?
19.7 mL
Normal amount of O2 in plasma?
0.3mL
Effect on Arterial Oxygen Content by increasing PaO2 5 fold?
it increases to 21.2 vol%

which ain't much. this is why oxygen bars aren't worth your money
Delivered O2 is equal to???
Oxygen Content x Cardiac Output
What is normal DO2?
1000mL/min
When is hyperbaric O2 indicated?
carbon monoxide poisoning
smoke inhalation
Define Hypoxia?
deficiency of O2 getting to tissues
Types of Hypoxia?
Histologic
Anemic
Circulatory/Stagnant
Define Histologic Hypoxia?
cells are unable to utilize O2
When might histologic hypoxia occur?
Cyanide Poisoning
Septic Shock
Define Anemic Hypoxia?
When Hb concentration is lower than normal and unable to transport O2
When might anemic hypoxia occur?
Sickle Cell
CO poisoning
metHb
Define Circulatory Hypoxia?
When the CV system fails to transport O2 to tissues, usually b/c of low Cardiac Output
Difference between hypoxia and hypoxemia?
Hypoxemia is a reduction in the partial pressure of O2 in the blood.

This leads to hypoxia
Causes of Hypoxemia?
Shunting
V/Q mismatching
Diffusion Defects
Hypoventilation
Normal Arterial Blood Gas numbers?
pH = 7.35-7.45
PaCO2 = 35-45
PaO2 = 80-100
HCO3 = 22-24
In general, as PaCO2 increases by 1, what happens to PaO2?
it decreases by 1.25
What is CPAP?
Continuous Positive Airway Pressure

its like sticking your head out of the car at 60mph
When do we use CPAP?
Obstructive sleep apnea
PO2 + PCO2 = between 110 and 130
AND
the patient is hypoxemic

CAUSE?
Hypoventilation
PO2 + PCO2 < 110

CAUSE?
V/Q Mismatch
Diffusion Defect
Shunt
