Cl- shift -excess HCO3- builds in RBC
-exchanged with Cl-
HCO3- enters plasma

carbonic anhydrase -CO2 highly soluble in blood/freely diffusable across RBC membrane
-speeds up rxn in either direction
-H+ buffered by Hb

submarien -air compressed by water
-going to surface, you have to exhale as lungs inflate

snorkle tubes -more dead space
-coud exceed lung's ability to echange air

nitrogen narcosis -high [N] (like diving) have a narcotic effect
-poor decision
-buddy system!

SCUBA divers use tanks of mixtures of noble gases (He) to displace N

the bends -elevated N2 in blood due to increased H20 presure
-1 atm for every 66 ft
-if too much time at depth or rapid surface recovery
-N bubbles released into blood stream, joints
-arterial blokage
joint pain
-explosive decompression/air embolism

anemic hypoxia arterial oxygen pressure is normal, but total oxygen content of the blood is reduced
-treatment w/ hyperbaric chamber
-transfusion

Mb higher affinity for O2 than Hb 0 mcs5109 Sat, 15 Nov 2008 21:31:23 GMT view revision history
mountain sickness -increased arterial diameters
-BP dereases
-lower pO2 in alveoli
decreases O2 to body
-hyperventilation and alkalosis
-endema in lungs and nervous system
-coma/death

high alt -more BPG produciton
-O2 less tightly bound
-easy to dump off O2

fetal Hb binding -low affinity for BPG
-higher affinity for O2 than maternal blood
-left shift of curve
0 mcs5109 Sat, 15 Nov 2008 21:20:03 GMT view revision history
shift to the right in dissociaiton curve (dumps off more O2) low pH
increase in CO2
increase in temp
increase in DPG

p50 value when Hb 50% saturated
higher p50 value, the lower the affinity of Hb for O2

CO2 forms in blood 1. HCO3 (70%)
2. bound to Hb (23%)
3. free CO2 gas (7%)

venous side caps O2 dumped off
CO2 gained

Arterial gas lowers O2 levels
lung arteries supplying O2 dump deoxygenated blood into pulmonary vein prior to entrance into left heart

N2; 570
O2: 95 (lower than alveoli air)
CO2: 40
0 mcs5109 Sat, 15 Nov 2008 21:14:34 GMT view revision history
alveolar gas O2 constantly being absorbed (lower)
CO2 constantly being released (higher)
moister (more H2O)

N2: 570
O2: 100
