Cards
| Term Partial Pressure | Definition The contribution of one gas to the total pressure exerted by all gases |
|---|---|
| Term In the systemic arteries, the partial pressure of oxygen is | Definition 100 mm Hg |
| Term In the systemic arteries, the partial pressure of carbon dioxide is | Definition 40 mm Hg |
What is the pO2 in the systemic arteries?
Systemic arterial pO2 averaged 71.1 { 11.0 mm Hg while arterial pCO2 and pH averaged 41.5 { 7.9 mm Hg and 7.38 { 0.05, respectively. Venous pO2 averaged 26.3 { 2.0 mm Hg and systemic arterial hematocrit was 45 { 1%.
What is systemic vein pO2?
The amount of oxygen that can bind with haemoglobin is determined by oxygen tension. This is expressed as partial pressure of oxygen pO2, similarly partial pressure of carbon dioxide is pCO2. The pCO2 and pO2 in oxygenated blood i.e., arterial blood is 40 mm Hg and 95 mm Hg respectively.
What is the partial pressure of oxygen in the alveoli?
about 104 mm Hg
The partial pressure of oxygen in alveolar air is about 104 mm Hg, whereas the partial pressure of the oxygenated pulmonary venous blood is about 100 mm Hg. When ventilation is sufficient, oxygen enters the alveoli at a high rate, and the partial pressure of oxygen in the alveoli remains high.
What is the difference between SaO2 and PaO2?
PaO2, the partial pressure of oxygen in the arterial blood, is determined solely by the pressure of inhaled oxygen (the PIO2), the PaCO2, and the architecture of the lungs. SaO2 is the percentage of available binding sites on hemoglobin that are bound with oxygen in arterial blood.
What is the partial pressure of CO2 in arterial blood?
The partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PCO2) is the measure of carbon dioxide within arterial or venous blood. It often serves as a marker of sufficient alveolar ventilation within the lungs. Generally, under normal physiologic conditions, the value of PCO2 ranges between 35 to 45 mmHg, or 4.7 to 6.0 kPa.
What is partial pressure oxygen?
The partial pressure of oxygen, also known as PaO2, is a measurement of oxygen pressure in arterial blood. It reflects how well oxygen is able to move from the lungs to the blood, and it is often altered by severe illnesses.
What is o2 partial pressure?
What is the partial pressure of o2 within the alveoli?
What is PO2 and PCO2?
pCO2 (partial pressure of carbon dioxide) pO2 (partial pressure of oxygen) CO2 (carbon dioxide content)
What is PO2 mmHg?
pO2. Partial pressure of oxygen, or oxygen content, in mmHg. pO2 > 80 mmHg. pCO2. Partial pressure of carbon dioxide, or carbon dioxide content, in mmHg.
