Oxygen saturation

be located near the surface would then provide a barrier to prevent any heat being absorbed by the water, which would then raise the water temperature above normal (refer to temperature paragraph above) as well as reducing the amount of dissolved oxygen within the water which will then evidently reduce the overall health and quality of the creek. Nevertheless, due to the fact that these suspended solids haven’t dissolved during the process of combining with the H2O polar molecules, it must then…

Collect the sample to be tested in a 300 mL BOD bottle taking special care to avoid adding air to the liquid being collected. Fill bottle completely and add stopper. 2. Remove bottle stopper and add 1 mL of the manganous sulfate solution at the surface of the liquid. 3. Add 1 mL of the alkaline-potassium iodide-sodium azide solution at the surface of the liquid. 4. Replace the stopper, avoid trapping air bubbles and shake well by inverting the bottle several times. Repeat shaking…

related to the process of O2 uptake in the lungs. In a standard curve up to 120mmHg, the curve will show that at 100mmHg or above, the hemoglobin is 100% saturated. It is vital to note that even if pO2 falls to 60mmHg for example, the Hemoglobin saturation will still be 90%. Therefore, the loading zone provides a margin of safety because it ensure fairly high uptake of O2 by pulmonary blood even when alveolar pO2 is moderately decreased in situations such as mountain climbing to a fairly…

large lakes. Hypoxic areas are places that fail to meet the required percentage of oxygen needed for human life. Activities such as littering in the small lakes and ponds can cause dangerous pollution. When oil is released into the water, that can cause an overgrowth in algae which will dissolve to the bottom. They are caused by excessive nutrient pollution from human activities. These activities cause less oxygen or life for marine life at the bottom of the ocean. According to my research…

Sallie Mae Fisher Case Study Many elderly patients do not have the proper support for their personal needs and medical diagnosis. If an elderly patient is provided with a thorough education on their diagnosis it can lead to positive health outcomes. In like matter with the proper support of nurses provided at home for the patient, medical errors can also be prevented. The purpose of this paper is to discuss Sallie Mae Fishers home visit with four problems identified based on substantiate…

vigilant to obtain the history of the scene in order to recognize the true cause of distress. While an elderly patient may have chronic respiratory issues, aspiration of food while eating may be the true acute cause of her rapidly decreasing oxygen saturation. One type of airway compromise that may be overlooked is smoke inhalation. This is a special case in which it can be both a toxic inhalation case and a particulate aspiration situation. Both play a role in the delicate management of…

Co-Trimozole, Sulfadiazine, Sulfamethoxazole, Trimethoprim-Sulfa-methoxazole ( Bactrim, Bactrin DS, and Septra), and Timethoprim (Trimpex, Proloprim, and Primsol). Patient should be on bed rest with bathroom privileges; oxygen per nasal cannula at 2litters continuously to keep saturation above 92%; and regular…

ventilation is carbon dioxide. (7) At high altitudes, hypoxia stimulates ventilation. (7) However, hypoxia only stimulates ventilation when the partial pressure of inspired oxygen is reduced to roughly 13.3kPa, and is at an altitude of 3000m or more. (7) When the inspired partial pressure of oxygen is 13.3kPa, alveolar oxygen pressure is 8kPa. (7) As hypoxia continues to increase, ventilation rises expodentionally. (7) In the lungs, hypoxia acts as a vasoconstrictor in the pulmonary circulation.…

ii. Non-Acidic Oxygen Compounds Figure 3.4 Isomers of non-acidic oxygen compounds (Retrieved from Chemistry of Petrochemical Processes, 2nd Edition, 2001). C .Asphlathenes It is organometallic compounds and inorganic salts (metallic compounds). Mostly sodium, calcium, magnesium, aluminium, iron, vanadium, nickel are present either as inorganic salts, such as sodium and magnesium chlorides, or in the form of organometallic compounds, such as those of nickel and vanadium (as in porphyrins).…
