Let's do PaO2, SaO2, and then hemoglobin, and then the total oxygen content. QED | | PaO2 (with indicated FiO2) | | EurLex-2 On the other side, on the plasma side, it also increases, but only a little bit because here you only have the contribution from the PaO2. QED Exam...
Blood electrolytes, hemoglobin concentration, and renal function were normal. There was no history of bronchopulmonary infection, and arterial blood gas values in room air were PaO2 83 mmHg, PaCO2 38 mmHg, pH 7.40, and HCO3 25 mM. Electrocardiogram showed regular sinus rhythm, and blood pressure...
Tissues need a requisite amount of O2molecules for metabolism. Neither the PaO2nor the SaO2provide information on the number of oxygen molecules, i.e., ofhow muchoxygen is in the blood. (Note that neither PaO2nor SaO2have units that denote any quantity.) Of the three values used for assess...
