| P-V curve Horizontal |
Horrible Compliance as in PA, PE, atelectasis, Pulm Fibrosis(Silicosis)...Little V for lots of P |
| P-V curve Vertical |

| Poiseuille's LAW - Laminar Flow |
Pr to the 4th power P=pressure, r=radius...16 fold jump in P as r decreases 50%. Radius is biggest factors affecting FLOW |
| Reynold's Number - Turbulence |
2rvd/n, r=radius, v=velocity, d=density, n=viscosity. >2000=turbulent flow. |
| Normal Time Constant Value (Kt)time for lung to empty 65% Vt |
.2 sec. Kt= compliance x Raw |
| Long Time Constant |
2.0 = ASTHMA, CHRONIC BRONCHITIS or 4.0=EMPHYSEMA |
| SHORT Time Constant |
.1 = PA, IRDS, ARDS, Pulm Edema |
| Normal STROKE Volume |

| STROKE V |
CO/HR, increase HR = decrease SV, increase SVR/PVR= decreased SV(BAD), Increase Ventrical Preload or Venous return = increase SV |

| Diseases assoc w increaed PVR |
Pulm. Emboli, Emphysema, Interstitial Pulm fibrosis |
| Drugs to decrease PVR |
O2, Nitric Oxide, Aminophylline causes Alkalemia |
| Capillary Fluid Balance |
Hydrostatic Pressure (B/P) pushes out. Osmotic Pressure(electrolytes, Prteins, glucose, solutes) push in oin cell |
| Capillary Balance factors in Pulm Edema |
Increased Hydrostatic P(CHF), Decreased Osmotic P(Ca), Increased Cap Membrane Perm(ARDS) |
| High V/Q diseases >.8 |
Pulmonary Emboli and Circulatory Shock = Deadspace. Responsive Hypoxemia. ABG = ALK, O2 above 100 |
| Low V/Q diseases <.8 |
Atelectasis, PA, Pulmonary Edema = SHUNT/Refractory Hypoxemia ABG = ACID, O2 - under 100 |
| Fick's Law |
Diffusion over A-C Membrane, directly proportional to SA, Press Gradient, and Diffusion Coefficient...INDIRECTLY to THICKNESS |
| OxyHb curve p50 |
Normal 27 |
| Decreased p50 LEFT |
LEFT=LOAD O2 is Easy in Lung and harder to unload in tissues |
| Increased p50 RIGHT |
RIGHT=RELEASE O2 in tissues but loading in Lung id harder |
| LEFT shift factors |
LEFT-L-aLkalemia, decreased CO2, decreased 2,3,DPG, Hypothermia |
| RIGHT shift factors |
ACIDEMIA, increased CO2, Increased 2,3,DPG, HYPERTHERMIA/FEVER, since O2 is RELEASE in tissues, that's why Fever is hot to touch |
| Total O2 delivery calculation |
CO x (CaO2x10) Normal is 5 x (20x10)=1000ml...if given dl, multiply by 10 |
| O2 Consumption |
CO x [C(a-v)O2x10], normal = 250ml.min |
| Increased O2 consumption...common sense |
FEVER, Exercise, Seizures, Shivering all >250 |
| Decreased O2 consumption |
Peripheral shunting, bllod not reaching limbs, Cyanide poisoning-block mitochondria from processing O2, Hypothermia-MET rate goes down, ,250 |
| Normal a-v gap |
20-15 = 5ml/min |
| Factors increased a-v gap |
Exercise, Shivering, Fever, DECREASED CO, tissues are asking for more |
| Decreased a-v gap |
Peripheral shunting, cyanide poisoning, hypothermia, INCREASED CO |
| O2 Extraction Ratio |
O2ER = (CaO2-CvO2)/CaO2 NORMAL is (20-15)/20= 25% |
| Shunt Calc (QS=shunted bl, QT=total bl flow, CCO2=content O2 in Pulm. Cap . Bed) |
QS/QT = (CCO2-CaO2)/(CCO2-CvO2) |
| Severity of shunt |
