Definition
IRV + TV + ERV + RV
Term
R and compliance of pulmonary circulation
Definition
low R and high compliance
Term
effect of decreased PAO2 on the plum circulation
Definition
hypoxic vasoconstriction, shifts blood away from poorly ventilated regions
Term
perfusion limited states
Definition
O2 (normal), CO2, N2O; gas equilibrates along capillary; diffusion can only be increased if blood flow increases
Term
diffusion limited
Definition
O2 (emphysema, fibrosis), CO; gas does not equilibrate by the time the endif the capillary
Term
physiologic dead space
Definition
TV x [(PaCO2 - PeCO2) / PaCO2]
Term
inward and outward pull at FRC
Definition
balanced and is atmospheric
Term
effects of FRC with emphysema
Definition
increases
Term
effect of FRC with fibrosis
Definition
decreases
Term
effect of compliance with emphysema
Definition
increases
Term
effect of compliance with fibrosis
Definition
decreases
Term
HbT
Definition
low affinity for O2
Term
HbR
Definition
high affinity for O2
Term
what is positive cooperatively?
Definition
when 1 O2 is bound, then it is easier for successive O2 to bind
Term
factors that favor T Hb
Definition
increased Cl, H, Co1, 2,3-BPG, temp
Term
methemoglobin
Definition
Fe3 does not bind O2 but increased affinity for CN
Term
tx of CN poisoning
Definition
- nitrites to oxidize Hb to methemoglobin
- thiosulfate bind CN which is renal excreted
Term
tx of methemoglobinemia
Definition
methylene blue
Term
carboxyhemoglobin
Definition
bound to CO in place of O2 200X greater; left shift
Term
causes of R shift on O2-Hb diss curve
Definition
Co2, BPG, Exercise, acid/altitude, temp
Term
fetal hb shift of curve
Definition
left = higher affinity for oxygen than adult Hb
Term
when O2-Hb curve shifts right what happens to affinity for Hb?
Definition
decreased affinity
Term
1' pulmonary HTN
Definition
BMPR2 gene
Term
2' pulm HTN causes
Definition
COPD, mitral stenosis, recurrent thromboemboli, AI dx, L -> R shunt, sleep apnea, living at high altitude
Term
pulm HTN mechanism of:
- COPD
- mitral stenosis
- AI
- L -> R shunt
- sleep apnea/high altitude
Definition
- destruction of parenchyma
- inc R -> inc P
- dec cross-sec area of plum vasc bed
- inc shear stress -> endothel injury
- hypoxic vasoconstriction
Term
PVR equation
Definition
- (Ppulmart - Platrium) / Q
- 8nl / (pi)r^4
Term
what Hb level do you see cyanosis?
Definition
< 5 g/dL
Term
effect of O2 content f blood ace Hb dec
- effect of O2 sat?
- effect of arterial PO2?
Definition
- decreases
- stays same
- stays same
Term
arterial PO2 with chronic lung disease
Definition
decreases because physiologic shunt decreases O2 extraction ratio
Term
O2 delivery to tissues equation
Definition
O2 delivery = Q x O2 content of blood
Term
alveolar gas equation
Definition
PAO2 = PIO2 - PaO2/R

PIO2 = 150 and R = 0.8
Term
normal Aa gradient value
Definition
10-15
Term
causes of increased Aa gradient
Definition
shunting, V/Q mismatch, fibrosis
Term
hypoxemia with normal Aa gradient
Definition
high altitude, hypoventilation
Term
hypoxemia with inc Aa gradient
Definition
V/Q mismatch, diffusion limitation, R to L shunt
Term
hypoxia with normal Aa gradient
Definition
dec Q, hypoxemia
Term
hypoxia with inc Aa gradient
Definition
anemia, cyanide poisoning, CO poisoning
Term
ischemia with normal Aa gradient
Definition
impeded arterial flow, reduced venous drainage
Term
VQ at apex
Definition
around 3
Term
VQ at base
Definition
0.6
Term
area of the lung that TB thrives
Definition
apex because high O2
Term
VQ in airway obstruction
Definition
-> 0
Term
VQ in blood flow obstruction
Definition
-> infinity
Term
zone I of lung
Definition
PA > Pa > Pv
Term
zone II of lung
Definition
Pa > PA > Pv
Term
zone III of lung
Definition
Pa > Pv > PA
Term
forms of CO2 in blood
Definition
HCO3 = 90%, bound as carbamino-Hb = 5%, dissolved CO2 = 5%
Term
what is the Haldane effect
Definition
oxygenation of Hb promotes dissociation of H+ from Hb which shifts equilibrium toward CO2 formation so CO2 is released from RBCs
Term
What is the Bohr effect?
Definition
in peripheral tissue, inc H+ from tissue metabolism shifts the curve R and unloads O2
