Pulmonary 9.5.12

gas Exchange, CXR, acid base

QuestionAnswer
What 2 forms is oxygen in in the blood? dissolved:responsible for PO2 bound to Hb: majority of O2 in blood
What does oxygen saturation express? shows how many of all heme groups have bound O2
In what state must iron be in to bind 02 and what enzyme does the body use to accomplish this? must be in ferrous Fe2+, 3+ converted to 2+ by methomoglobin reductase
What is Hb with Fe3+? methemoglobin
What is the mechanism of methemoglobinemia and what drugs can cause it? nitrates and lido can overwhelm methemoglobin reductase making more fe3+ Hb
What types of Sx makes you suspect methemoglobinemia? cyanosis, choclate brown blood, SaO2 by oximetry=85%. SaO2 by ABg is normal, PO2 is normal
How is a dx of methemoglobinemia made? see methemoglobin % on ABG
What is PaO2 normal? dissolved O2 in blood, 100 mm Hg
What is SaO2? normal? % of hemes bound. normal =97.5%.
On what does the O2 dissolved in blood depend? soulbility coefficient, alpha.0.003 mL O2/dL/mm Hg
How much O2 is carried by Hb? 1.34mmO2/g Hb
How is total O2 concentration calculateD? CaO2=[1.39xHgbxSaO2]+[0.003xPaO2]
What has the largest impact on the amount of O2 that can be carried? Hemoglobin levels. Decreased Hb = decreased CaO2
What is the mechanism of CO poisoning? binds Hb and displaces O2. also causes bound O2 o bind more sticky
What are the Sx of CO poisoning? HA. nausea, confusion,NOT SOB
How is the dx of CO poisoning made? normal PO2, low Sa)2 (only with co-oximetric of arterial blood), finger is normal
What is the normal, smoker and posion concentrations of CO? norm=3%, smoker =10%, posion=25%
How do you tx methemoglobinemia? methylene blue
How do you treat CO poisoning? 100% O2, hyperbaric O2
What is the meaning of a right shift to the Oxygen dissociation curve> O2 affinity for Hb is reduced, more unbound for O2 in capalaries
What is the meaning of a left shift to the oxygen dissociation curve? O2 affinity for Hb is increased, less O2 unloading in capalaries
What causes a right shift to the oxygen dissociation curve? acidosis, fever, increased pCO2, increased DPG
What causes a left shift to the oxygen dissociation curve? alkalosis, low CO2, hypothermia, decreased DPG, CO poisoning
What is DPG and how is it increased an decreased? helps load and unload O2, increased in high altitude and chronic hypoxia. decreased in store RBC
What are the 3 ways CO2 is transported the blood? 1.dissolved (10%) 2. bicarbonate (60%) 3. carbamino acid (30%)
What is the chemical equalibrium of CO2 in the blood? What enzyme is key? CO2+H2)<---->H2CO3<----> H+ HCO3-. 1st step catalyzed by carbonic anhydrase
How does the RBC act as a CO2 transporter? dissolved CO2 enters RBC and binds to Hb, other is converted to caronic acid and bicarb which is exchanged on the outside for Cl-
What is the process of CO2 and bicarb release in the lungs? dissovled CO2 exhaled, bicarb is pumped into RBC via Cl- where its bound to Hb and then exhaled
What is the RBC chloride shift? maintians electrical neutrality by exchanging Cl- for HCO3-
What determines how well Hb binds CO2? amount O2 unloads in tissues increased CO2 loading
What is the affect on oxygen saturation on the carbondioxide dissociation curve? shift the curve upward
What is the arterial veous diff for O2? 60mmHg
What is the arterial venous diff for CO2? 5mmHg
How do O2 and CO2 move intpo/out of cappilaries? only by diffusion. so O2 is lower the further away from capillary
What is myoglobin? what is whabdomyolyisis? reserve of O2 in muscle, seen destroyed in muscle injury called rhabdomylysis which can damage kidney
What is the effect of exercise on the O2 dissociation curve? shift to right, O2 is distributied easier
What are 3 means of hypoxia? 1. low arterial )2 2. reduced blood O2 carrying capacity 3. reduced tissue BF
What is histotoxic hypoxia? cells can't use )2 due to malfunction orf organells like mitochondria
What is the mechanism of cyanide poisoning? prevents usage of O2 by cytochrome oxidase
What is the presentation of Cyanide poisoning? HA, confusion, tachycardia
How is the dx of cyanide poisoning made? bright red blood, high blood acetate, pink skin
How is cyanide poising treated? sodium sulfate + hydroxycobalamine
What tissues survive longest and least without oxygen? brain=3 min kidney/liver=10-15 skeltal=60min smm=24-72hr
Can you asccess the aorta at the aortic knob? Why not? no. because see it medially and laterally in different planes can't assess size might appear falsely dilated
What does dilation of the azygous arch show? ahows pressure in RH
What does a subcarinal mass do to the azygous esophageal recess? displaces AE recess to right
What are the 5 main thing on the DDX for an airspace pattern? blood, pus, water, protein, cells
What is a silhouette sign? objects of same density are additive with e/o. R middle pleural effusion can block right Heart border
What is the spine sign? spine is supposed to get darker moving superior to inferior
What is the normal blood pH? 7.35-7.45
What is the affect on pH with increasing H2CO3 or increasing HCO3-? increased H2CO3=decreased pH, increased HCO3-=increased pH
What is the normal [HCO3]? 24
What is the normal [PaCO2]? 40
What is the lungs role in pH maintenance? minute to minute pH controle b/v Va determine PaCO2, Ve=RRx(Va+Vd)
What does respiratory hyperventilation cause? hypocapnea( PaCO2<35)
What does respiratory hypoventialation lead to? hypercapnea (PaCO2>45)
How does the kidney contribute to pH control? retain or release HCO3
What is a simple acid base disturbance vs a complex one? simple is compensated, complex isnt
Does a compensated patient ever get to normal pH? no
What are the signs of respiratory acidosis? increased pCO2, fix:renal retention of bicarb (increased HCO3), pH >7.4
What are the signs of respiratory alkalosis? decreased pCO2, pH>7.4, fix: increased renal excertion (decreased bicarb)
What are the signs of metabolic acidosis? decreased HCO3,fix: incr. Ve, decreased PCO2. pH<7.4
What are the signs of metabolic alkalosis? increased HCO3, pH >7.4. fix:decrease Ve, increase PCO2
What is the compensation of acute phase respiratory acidosis? 10mmincrease PCO2=1mmHCO3 increase
What is the compensation ruile for chronic respiratory acidosis? 10mm Hb incr PCO2= incr HCO3 3.5 mm rq
What type of acid base disruption do CNS depression, neuromuscular junction, obstructive lung disease, obesity and hyperthyoidism cause? respiratory acidosis
What is the compensation rule for acute respiratory alkalosis? 10 mm decr PCO2=HCO3 decr 5 m,eq
What type of acid base disturbance does axiety, pain, sepsis, CNS stim, pregnancy, chronic liver disease, hyperthyroidism? respiratory alkalosis
What is the acid nase disturbance with an increased anion gap? metabolic acidosis
How is the anion gap calculated? What is normal? Na-(Cl+HCO3), 12+/- 2
What is the compensation rule for metabolic acidosis? last 2 digits of pH should equal pCO2 if com[pensated

What acid base disturbance is caused by diarrhea, renal tubular acidosis? non anion gap metabolic acidosis
What is the normal osmolar gap and what does it help to characterize? 10. helps characterize anion gap acidoses. increased gap=methanol or etgly posioning
What is the compensation rule for a metabolic alkalosis? incr 1 HCO3=incr 0.6 mm PCO2
