The partial pressure of oxygen is the pressure exerted by gaseous oxygen in the blood and is measured either in kilopascals (kPa) or millimeters of mercury (mmHg). The higher the partial pressure of oxygen (pO2) in the blood, the higher the oxygen saturation. This relationship is not linear...
The limits of agreement between PACO2eff and PaCO2 were 0.526 to -0.935 in normal subjects and 1.170 to -2.088 in patients. CONCLUSIONS--The volume weighted effective alveolar PCO2 in normal subjects and patients with chronic airways obstruction is lower than the arterial PCO2 and is recommended ...

What would occur if a person had a respiratory illness that caused the lungs to have a lower PO2and a higher PCO2than the blood in pulmonary capillaries? There would be an increase exchange of oxygen between the alveoli and the capillaries. This would re Which of t...
In the MRI unit, the subjects were at rest in the supine position, with their eyes open and wearing earplugs. During the DSC-MRI experiments, end-tidal pCO2 (ETCO2) was monitored (see Table 1) and the subjects were breathing normal air with addition of extra O2 to a total level of ...
I thought it would decrease because you do not want to breathe out CO2 as there is less CO2 in the body. Is the breathing frequency increased so Would hyperventilation and emphysema raise or lower each of the following: the blood Po2, ...
An example is shown in Table 1, where donor DA has a right-shifted ODC, probably as a result of the higher intra-erythrocytic 2,3-diphosphoglycerate content. Arturson et al. =-=(31)-=- eliminated two of these factors by accepting as a standard state pH 7.4, Pco2 5.33 kPa, 37 #{...

It should be noted that in the study of naturally occurring RE carbonates, particularly single RE carbonates, the hydroxycarbonates are of greater importance as they are the hydrolysis products of the normal carbonates at ambient conditions (pCO2 = 3 × 10−4 atm, 25 ◦C, total pressure =...
