Q

how do you calculate tidal volume

A

minute ventilation / breathing frequency

17
Q

what does airFLOW depend on

A

-pressure difference between 2 ends of airway
-resistance of airways

18
Q

what does airway resistance depend on

19
Q

what is DALTON’s law

A

the total pressure of a gas mixture is equal to the sum of the pressure that each gas would exert independently

20
Q

partial pressure calculation

A

fraction of % of air X barometric pressure

21
Q

when you inhale, the partial pressure of oxygen is higher in the lungs than bloodstream, therefore you get the movement of oxygen from lungs ->

A

into the bloodstream

22
Q

the partial pressure of carbon dioxide is higher in the bloodstream, therefore you get the movement of carbon dioxide from the bloodstream ->

A

into the lungs

23
Q

what means that you get the movement of gases from the bloodstream -> tissue and from tissue -> bloodstream

A

partial pressure concentration differences

24
Q

at the tissues there is a low partial pressure of o2 therefore you want

A

the formation of deoxyghemoglobin

25
at the lungs there is a high partial pressure of o2 therefore you want
the formation of oxyhemoglobin
26
oxygen is transported to the muscle via
hemoglobin which shuttles o2 from cell membrane to mitochondria
27
myoglobin has a higher affinity for...
oxygen than hemoglobiin
28
whats the oxyhemoglobin equation
dexoyhemoglobin + o2 <- -> oxyhemoglobin
29
what does the oxyhemoglobin equation direction depend on
-partial pressure of o2 -affinity between haemoglobin and o2
30
at lungs, high PO2 =
formation of oxyhemoglobin
31
at lungs, low PO2 =
release of o2 to tissues
32
what 3 factors result in offloading of oxygen
-increase in temperature -increase in hydrogen ions -increase in DPG
