Exam 3 Flashcards
(113 cards)
R to L shunt
Perfusion w/ no ventilation
V/Q = 0
Alveolar DS
Ventilation w/ no perfusion
V/Q = infinity
anatomical DS formula
1ml/pound
alveolar ds PO2
150mmHg
Alveolar ds PCO2
0.04 %
Alveolar PO2 post equilibration
104 mmhg
Alveolar PCO2 post equilibration

LaPlace law
P=T/r……smaller r = increased pressure but surfactant negates this.
normal nitrogen washout
healthy lungs should be able to get nitrogen to a concentration of 2.5% in 3 min.
more than 7 = abnormal test
