O2 delivery = blood flow (CO) x [O2] O2 delivery = CO x (dissolved O2 + Hb-O2) |

MetHb: disease state that has more ferric (Fe 3+) iron, hard time carrying O2…usually only about 1.5% because of methemoglobin reductase |

O2 carrying capacity = (1.34 ml 02 / gm Hb x 15 gm of Hb / 100ml) = 20 ml 02 / 100m |

O2 content= (capacity x % saturation) + dissolved O2 |

When blood leaves lungs, it is almost 100% saturated, a little admixture from cardiac veins and other sources. Comes back 75% saturated, only drop off 25% of O2. Called preloading, most Hb has 3 O2 already, very easy for 4th O2 to hop on. Also is reserve supply for strenuous activity. |

Effect of CO on the curve (flat @ 50% in example) Decreases O2 bound to Hb and decreases O2 carrying capacity Left shift for O2 XX Heme groups with higher affinity for O2 (does not release) |

Factors affecting total CO2 carriage |
|
Definition
Depends on: PCO2 Plasma pH PO2 |

Term
|
Definition
At any PCO2, CO2 content increases with decreasing PO2—uplifting of the curve As O2 leaves at the tissue level-----increase ability to carry CO2 “Flip-side” of the Bohr pH and CO2 effect at the alveolar level----where increasing CO2/pH result in increased affinity for O2 Haldane effect of O2 on CO2 (As PO2 increases, CO2 carrying capacity decreases---release CO2) |
