Oxygenation - 27

Test II, N101

QuestionAnswer
oxygenate venous blood and remove carbon dioxide from blood alveolar system
Air in & out of lungs Ventilation
Gas exchange in lungs Respiration
O2 -> Blood -> Body Tissues Oxygenation
Active Phase = O2 in Inspiration
Passive Phase = CO2 out Expiration
Starts the inspiration, but is not part of Resp. Syst. Diaphragm
Air moves in -> Less Pressure
Air moves out -> More Pressure
Biggest airway restrictor of all Tongue
2nd biggest airway restrictor asthma & allergies
Respiratory Center Medulla of Brain
Stimulated by ^ carbon dioxide & H+ ions Inhalation
Medulla -(impulses)-> spinal cord -> activate resp. muscles to regulate O2 & CO2
98% of O2 gets to body by Hemoglobin
O2 & CO2 transported by Red Blood Cells
Low oxygenation Hypoxia
effects of hypoxia Hypoxemia
Part of lung removed Lobdectemy
current oxygenation saturation in tissues Pulse Oximetry
Desired range __% or above 92
< __% means O2 going to tissues is inadequate 85
Pulse Ox measures ____________ blood O2 Peripheral Venous
Blood is taken from an artery Invasive
“partial pressure of arterial O2” PaO2
“partial pressure of arterial CO2” PaCO2
21% O2 Room Air
Supplemental O2 devices deliver in Liters per minute
O2 Wall dial Flow Meter
O2 is a ____; odorless, colorless gas Drug
______ may be one of the first signs that something is wrong with Pt's respiration Restlessness
Most common O2 delivery device you will see Nasal Cannula
Simple Venturi (“Venti”) Partial Rebreather Nonrebreather Face Masks
Mixes O2 with room air, allows exhaled CO2 to escape Simple Mask
used < 12 hrs - short term Simple Mask
Most precise & most consistent O2 concentration Venturi Mask
Air in Reservoir bag mixes with wall O2 -> leaves through vents on side of mask Partial Rebreather Mask
Most precise & most consistent O2 concentration, Pt cannot rebreathe air Nonrebreather Mask
T.C.D.B. -> Increase Lung Expansion Turn, Cough, Deep Breathe
Increases Lung Expansion Incentive Spirometry
Percussion & postural drainage Chest PT
Expands bronchs - "bronchodilater" Nebulizer
To reduce surface tension of the fluid lining alveoli surfactant
A patient who has difficulty breathing, increased respiratory and pulse rates, and pale skin with regions of cyanosis may be experiencing Hypoxia
decreasing amount of air trapping & airway resistance pursed-lip breathing
