What is the hydrolysis reaction for dissolved CO2 to convert into HCO3? |
|
Definition
CO2 leaves the tissue and enters plasma
PP of CO2 increases in plasma of venous blood which causes increase diffusion of CO2 into RBC
H2O combines with CO2 and forms H2CO3
Enzyme increases the reaction(carbonic anhydrase)
Hb releases O2 to tissues while HCO3 is forming
RBC is saturated with HCO3, causing diffusion into plasma and combo with Na
HCO3 leaves RBC and CL moves in(CL shift)
HCO2 and CL are increased in RBC(H2O causes RBC to swell in venous blood) |

How does a decreased V?Q ratio develop? |
|
Definition
Decrease in ventilation
Increase in perfusion |
|
|
Term
Why does the PAO@ decrease during a V/Q decrease? |
|
Definition
Because O2 moves out of the alveolus and into the pulmonary capillary bed faster than it is replenished by ventilation |
|
|
Term
Why does the PACO2 increase during V/Q decrease? |
|
Definition
Beacause it moves out of the capillary bed and into the alveolus faster than it washed out of the alveolus. |
