Oxygen transport (carriage)_by_the_bl000
1. Oxygen transport by the blood involves oxygen flowing from the alveoli to the tissues via hemoglobin in the blood. The oxygen carrying capacity of hemoglobin is increased about 70 times compared to dissolved oxygen alone.
2. The oxygen-hemoglobin dissociation curve shows the relationship between oxygen pressure and hemoglobin saturation. It is sigmoid shaped due to cooperative binding of oxygen.
3. Factors like acidosis, increased temperature, and 2,3-DPG can shift the curve rightward, increasing oxygen unloading to tissues. Fetal hemoglobin and alkalosis shift the curve leftward, decreasing oxygen unloading.
Oxygen and carbon dioxide transport
This document discusses oxygen and carbon dioxide transport in the blood. Oxygen is transported primarily by binding reversibly to hemoglobin in red blood cells. The oxygen dissociation curve represents the relationship between oxygen content of blood and the partial pressure of oxygen. Carbon dioxide is transported as dissolved CO2, bicarbonate ions, and carbamate compounds. The Bohr and Haldane effects alter hemoglobin's oxygen affinity in response to changes in pH, CO2, and oxygen saturation levels to facilitate oxygen delivery and carbon dioxide removal in the tissues.
Oxygen dissociation curve
This document discusses the oxyhemoglobin dissociation curve. It provides background on oxygen transport by hemoglobin and factors that influence the curve. Key points include:
- Hemoglobin transports oxygen through cooperative binding of up to 4 oxygen molecules per heme-globin molecule.
- The sigmoidal dissociation curve arises from cooperative binding - as one oxygen binds it increases affinity for others.
- Factors like pH, CO2, temperature can shift the curve left or right, altering oxygen unloading in tissues.
- Fetal hemoglobin has a higher affinity, helping oxygen transfer to the fetus in utero. Myoglobin also has higher affinity and acts as an oxygen storage in muscle.
oxygen transport
Oxygen is transported from the lungs to tissues in two forms: physically dissolved in blood plasma and bound to hemoglobin in red blood cells. Hemoglobin transports about 98% of oxygen in its iron-containing heme groups. The binding of oxygen to hemoglobin follows an S-shaped oxygen-hemoglobin dissociation curve, where hemoglobin has high affinity for oxygen at high partial pressures in the lungs and low affinity in tissues, facilitating oxygen delivery. Various factors can shift this curve to increase or decrease hemoglobin's oxygen affinity, optimizing oxygen transport and unloading on demand in metabolically active tissues.
Acid-Base-Balance
1. pH is a measure of acidity or alkalinity and is defined as the logarithm of the reciprocal of hydrogen ion concentration. Two disturbances of pH are acidosis and alkalosis.
2. The document discusses various factors that regulate acid-base balance in the body including buffers like bicarbonate, proteins, and phosphates. It also describes how the respiratory and renal systems help control pH levels.
3. Acid-base imbalances can result from respiratory or metabolic causes and lead to acidosis or alkalosis depending on increases or decreases in acid and base levels. Precise regulation is vital as pH outside a narrow range can be fatal.
Abg short seminar
This document provides information about arterial blood gases (ABGs), including what parameters are measured in an ABG, which artery is commonly used for sampling, cautions when obtaining an ABG, and conditions that can invalidate or modify ABG results. It also outlines the six step approach to evaluating acid-base disorders based on an ABG result, including identifying if the primary disturbance is respiratory or metabolic, ruling out combined disorders, checking the anion gap in metabolic acidosis, and calculating the delta anion gap. An illustrative case is provided where the ABG results indicate a mixed metabolic acidosis and respiratory acidosis based on application of the six step approach.
Acid and Base Balance and Imbalance
This document provides an overview of acid-base balance and pH regulation in the body. It defines pH and the scales used to measure acidity and alkalinity. It describes how the body tightly controls pH through buffer systems, respiration, and kidney function. Disruptions in acid-base balance can cause metabolic acidosis, alkalosis, respiratory acidosis or alkalosis. The document outlines signs, symptoms, causes, and treatments for different acid-base imbalances. It also provides examples of interpreting arterial blood gas results to diagnose specific acid-base disorders.
Oxygen transport
This document discusses oxygen transport from the atmosphere to tissues. It describes how oxygen is absorbed in the lungs and bound to hemoglobin to be carried by the blood. The oxyhemoglobin dissociation curve is explained, showing how hemoglobin releases oxygen in tissues. Factors affecting oxygen diffusion and binding such as partial pressure gradients, carbon dioxide levels, 2,3-DPG, and fetal hemoglobin are covered. The document also briefly discusses oxygen toxicity and ischemia-reperfusion injury.
Acid
The document discusses acid-base balance and its regulation in the human body. It states that acid-base balance refers to precise regulation of hydrogen ion concentration in body fluids, which is important for homeostasis. The body produces both volatile acids from carbon dioxide metabolism and non-volatile acids from protein metabolism. Buffering systems and the respiratory and renal systems work to balance acid production and maintain pH within a narrow range. Disturbances in acid-base balance can occur from changes in bicarbonate levels or carbon dioxide partial pressure and are assessed using arterial blood gas analysis.
Oxygen hemoglobin dissociation curve
The oxyhemoglobin dissociation curve shows the relationship between oxygen concentration and hemoglobin saturation in the blood. It demonstrates how hemoglobin binds to oxygen in the lungs when partial pressure of oxygen is high, and releases oxygen into tissues where partial pressure is low. Several factors can shift the curve left or right, changing hemoglobin's affinity for oxygen and impacting how much oxygen is unloaded to tissues. These include pH, carbon dioxide levels, 2,3-DPG, temperature, and certain conditions like methemoglobinemia.
O2 and CO2 transport in blood and tissues
This document discusses oxygen and carbon dioxide transport in the blood. It notes that up to four oxygen molecules can bind to each hemoglobin molecule. The oxygen dissociation curve is sigmoid shaped, with hemoglobin binding oxygen rapidly up to a partial pressure of 60mmHg. Carbon dioxide is also reversibly transported in blood, primarily as bicarbonate ions formed from the reaction of carbon dioxide and water catalyzed by carbonic anhydrase in red blood cells. The partial pressures of oxygen and carbon dioxide differ between arterial, venous, interstitial, and intracellular fluids in a manner that facilitates uptake of oxygen by tissues and removal of carbon dioxide.
Oxygen transport
This document discusses oxygen transport and consumption in the human body. It begins by outlining the learning objectives, which are to calculate oxygen consumption at rest, explain how oxygen is carried in the blood and measured, recognize factors that increase oxygen consumption, and identify how more oxygen can be delivered to tissues when needed. It then provides details on oxygen transport from the air to mitochondria via different mechanisms, how oxygen is bound to hemoglobin and affects its binding curve, and how the body can increase oxygen delivery through various physiological responses.
Gas Transport CO2 and O2
The document discusses the transport of oxygen (O2) and carbon dioxide (CO2) in the blood. O2 is carried by hemoglobin in red blood cells, with about 200 ml of O2 transported per liter of blood. CO2 diffuses into the blood and is transported in three ways: 10% dissolved in plasma, 30% bound to hemoglobin, and 60% as bicarbonate ions in red blood cells. The chloride shift transports bicarbonate out of red blood cells in exchange for chloride ions. Effects like the Bohr effect and Haldane effect influence O2 and CO2 binding to hemoglobin.
TRANSPORT OF CARBON DIOXIDE
Dr. Nilesh Kate's document discusses the transport of carbon dioxide in the body. It describes how CO2 moves from cells to blood through diffusion down a partial pressure gradient, and is transported in the blood in three forms: dissolved, bicarbonate, and carbamino compounds. The document outlines the roles of hemoglobin, oxygen levels, and temperature in facilitating CO2 transport from tissues to the lungs, where it diffuses into the alveolar air and is exhaled. Key factors like pH regulation and the respiratory quotient are also briefly covered.
Respir8n 6
1) The partial pressure of each gas in a mixture is directly proportional to its percentage. Gases dissolve in liquids according to their partial pressures based on Henry's law.
2) Respiratory membranes are only 0.5-1 μm thick, allowing for efficient gas exchange across their large total surface area of about 60 m2.
3) Factors that maximize gas exchange include increasing the partial pressure difference of gases, maximizing membrane surface area, and minimizing membrane thickness.

6) transport of oxygen and carbon dioxdide
lecture 6: transportaion of both gases need a hemoglobin and part of them are transported by plasma. if Hb is low the saturation of oxygen also low and leads a hypoxia, fatigue, dyspnea, etc. in other hand acidosis can occur.
Oxygen dissociation curve
Following induction of anesthesia, factors such as decreased functional residual capacity, increased ventilation/perfusion mismatching, and development of atelectasis can increase venous admixture from 1% to around 10%. Anesthetic agents also suppress hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction and decrease cardiac output, reducing oxygen delivery. However, anesthesia and artificial ventilation lower oxygen requirements by around 15-21% due to decreased metabolism and work of breathing. Oxygen is transported in the blood bound to hemoglobin or dissolved in plasma, and the oxygen dissociation curve illustrates hemoglobin's changing affinity for oxygen at different partial pressures. Multiple factors can shift this curve, facilitating either oxygen loading or unloading as needed.
Transport of oxygen (the guyton and hall physiology)
Supply of oxygen to tissues mainly involves two systems i.e. respiratory system and the cardiovascular system.
Supply of oxygen to tissues depends upon
Adequate PO2 in atmospheric air
Adequate pulmonary ventilation
Adequate gaseous exchange in the lungs
Adequate uptake of oxygen by the blood
Adequate blood flow to the tissues
Adequate ability of the tissues to utilize oxygen
Oxygen diffuses from the alveoli into the pulmonary capillary blood because the oxygen partial pressure (Po2) in the alveoli is greater than the Po2 in the pulmonary capillary blood.
In the other tissues of the body, a higher Po2 in the capillary blood than in the tissues causes oxygen to diffuse into the surrounding cells.
The Po2 of the gaseous oxygen in the alveolus averages 104 mm Hg,
whereas the Po2 of the venous blood entering the pulmonary capillary at its arterial end averages only 40 mm Hg
Therefore, the initial pressure difference that causes oxygen to diffuse into the pulmonary capillary is 104 – 40, or 64 mm Hg.
About 98 percent of the blood that enters the left atrium from the lungs has just passed through the alveolar capillaries and has become oxygenated up to a Po2 of about 104 mm Hg.
Another 2 per cent of the blood which supplies mainly the deep tissues of the lungs and is not exposed to lung air. This blood flow is
called “shunt flow,” meaning that blood is shunted past the gas exchange areas
One gram of Hb can bind 1.34 ml of Oxygen
Normal level of Hb is 15 grams/dL
Thus 15 grams of hemoglobin in 100 milliliters of blood can combine with a total of almost exactly 20 milliliters of oxygen if the hemoglobin is 100 per cent saturated
This is usually expressed as 20 volumes per cent
Hemoglobin is a conjugated protein consisting of heme and globin.
The ferrous form can bind oxygen.
Hemoglobin molecule consists of four subunits each consists of one heme and one polypeptide chain
Each subunit can bind one molecule of Oxygen
Oxygenation is a very rapid and reversible process and it can occur in 0.01 seconds
When PO2 is high, oxygen binds with Hb to form Oxyhemoglbin
When PO2 is low oxygen leaves Hb to form Deoxy Hb.

Diagnosis and treatment of acid base disorders(1)
This document discusses the diagnosis and treatment of acid-base disorders. It begins by explaining the importance of precise pH regulation between 7.35-7.45 for cellular functions. Buffers help control free hydrogen ion concentration. Respiratory regulation controls PaCO2 through lung excretion of volatile acids, while renal regulation maintains plasma HCO3- concentration through kidney processes. Primary acid-base disorders are either metabolic, affecting HCO3-, or respiratory, affecting PaCO2. Expected compensatory responses occur but do not fully correct the primary disorder. Evaluation involves history, exam, basic labs, and arterial blood gas analysis to determine the primary disorder and characterize as acute or chronic.

Hypotension and role of physiotherapy in it
This particular slides consist of- what is hypotension,what are it's causes and it's effect on body, risk factors, symptoms,complications, diagnosis and role of physiotherapy in it.
This slide is very helpful for physiotherapy students and also for other medical and healthcare students.
Here is the summary of hypotension:
Hypotension, or low blood pressure, is when the pressure of blood circulating in the body is lower than normal or expected. It's only a problem if it negatively impacts the body and causes symptoms. Normal blood pressure is usually between 90/60 mmHg and 120/80 mmHg, but pressures below 90/60 are generally considered hypotensive.

ABG INTERPRETATION
- 3. COMPONENTS Normal ranges pH: 7.35 – 7.45 PaCO2: 35-45 mm Hg PaO2: 70-100 mm Hg HCO3-: 22-26 mEq/L Base excess: -2 to +2 mmol/L
- 5. pH The changes in pH are caused by an imbalance in the CO2 (respiratory) or HCO3–(metabolic). Acidotic: pH <7.35 Normal: pH 7.35 – 7.45 Alkalotic: pH >7.45 PaCO2 Looking at the level of CO2 quickly helps to rule out the respiratory system as the cause for the derangement in pH.
- 6. Oxygenation (PaO2) PO2 (partial pressure of oxygen) reflects the amount of oxygen gas dissolved in the blood. HCO3– HCO3– is a base. When HCO3– is raised the pH is increased as there are less free H+ ions (alkalosis). When HCO3– is low the pH is decreased as there are more free H+ ions (acidosis).
- 7. Base excess (BE) The base excess is another surrogate marker of metabolic acidosis or alkalosis. A high base excess (> +2mmol/L) indicates that there is a higher than normal amount of HCO3- in the blood, which may be due to primary metabolic alkalosis or a compensated respiratory acidosis. A low base excess (< -2mmol/L) indicates that there is a lower than normal amount of HCO3- in the blood, suggesting either a primary metabolic acidosis or a compensated respiratory alkalosis.
- 20. Compensation The normal response of the respiratory system or kidneys to change in pH induced by a primary acid-base disorder
