Term
To calculate pysiologic dead space use Bohr's equation CO2 of end tidal volume - CO2 of mixed expired sample/ CO2 of end tidal volume fAco2 - fEco2/ fAco2 |

Definition
%Vd/Vt this answer will be in like .35 & is 35%% |
|
|
Term
physiologic dead space x tidal volume %Vd/Vt x Vt= |
|
Definition
volume of dead space/breath Vd |
|
|
Term
vol of dead space per breath x frequency= Vd x f (RR)= |
|
Definition
volume of dead space for one min V•d |
|
|
Term
tidal volume - volume of dead space per breath= Vt - Vd = |
|
Definition
alveolar volume in one breath VA |
|
|
Term
alveolar volume in one breath x frequency (RR)= VA x f= or minute ventilation - dead space in 1 min= V•E - V•d= |
|
Definition
alveolar volume in 1 min V•A |
|
|
Term
check your answer does V•A + V•d = V•E |
|
Definition
Check your answer does Vd + VA = Vt |
