OXYGENATION AND OXYGEN THERAPY

Oxygen source

Inspired Oxygen (Fio2)

Alveolar Oxygen (PAO2)

Arterial Oxygen (PaO2)

Caplillary Oxygen (PcO2)

Tissue Oxygen

Oxygen Chain

Mitochondrial Oxygen

Venous Oxygen (PvO2)

Atmospheric Oxygen (21%)

Oxygen Cylinders

Liquid Oxygen

Oxygen Concentrator

Oxygen Source (FiO2)

PIO2= (P B - P H2O)FiO2 At sea level: PIO2= (760-47)X 0.21 = 149.7 mmHg

Inspired Oxygen (PIO2)

PAO2= PIO2- (PACO2/R)R: Exchange Ratio= 0.8PACO2=PaCO2 ( CO2 is freely diffusible)

PAO2= 150- (40/0.8) = 100 mmHg

Alveolar Oxygen (PAO2)

Alveoli to Pulmonary Capillaries

Diffusion Capacity

•Property of the alveolar-capillary membrane

•Ease with which oxygen moves from inhaled air to the red blood cells in the pulmonary capillaries

The arterial PaO2 is less than PAO2 due to presence of:

Intrapulmonary Shunts Deep true bronchial

veins Thebesian veins Normal venous admixture <5% Blood through low

V/Q units Total shunt because of the above factors is

2% of CO.

Arterial PaO2

ANATOMICAL SHUNTS:

PHYSIOLOGICAL SHUNT S:

VENOUS ADMIXTUREV

LOW PaO2: CAUSES OF HYPOXIA

Low FiO2 Low FiO2 Low PIO2 Low PAO2 Low

High altitude

Exposure to fires which consume O2

Exhaled gas used for CPR.

Results in: Hypoxemia CO2 retention Causes: Airway Obtruction Low Minute ventilation : Low RR or

Low TV

PaO2 + PaCO2 = 140 mmHg.

HYPOVENTILATION

Focal Hypoventilation

Shunt Effect Wasted Perfusion

HYPOXEMIA

Hypoxemia without hypercarbia

(Type 1 RF)

Dead Space Effect Wasted Ventilation

INCREASED WORK OF BREATHING

Minute Ventilation-PaCO2 Disparity( Type II RF )

V/Q <1Low V/Q Units

V/Q >1High V/Q Units

V/Q=1.0V/Q=0 V/Q= infinity

Type I or Hypoxemic (PaO2 <60 at sea level): Failure of oxygen exchange

Increased shunt fraction (Q S /QT ) Due to alveolar flooding Hypoxemia refractory to supplemental oxygen.

Type II or Hypercapnic (PaCO2 >45): Failure to exchange or remove CO2

Decreased alveolar minute ventilation (V A ) Often accompanied by hypoxemia that corrects with

supplemental oxygenType III Respiratory Failure: Perioperative RFType IV Respiratory Failure: Shock

Respiratory Failure: Types

Alveolar arterial oxygen difference P(A-a)O2 Normal is 5-15 mm Hg because oxygenated blood

is mixed with deoxygenated blood.

Affected by: Age : Increases with age FiO2: Increases with increasing FiO2.

Indicator of pulmonary parenchymal dysfunction.

OXYGENATION INDICES

Normal P/F > 400; Maximum P/F = 700 Relation between PaO2 and FiO2 is non linear and

influenced by: - Denitrogenation Absorption Atelectesis -PEEP Advantage: Simple - bypasses need to calculate PAO2 Disadvantage: Cannot distinguish between Type 1 and Type

S/F = 64+ 0.84 X (P/F)

OXYGENATION INDICES

S/F RATIO

P/F RATIO

Thickened interface between air and blood: Collagen deposition Cellular infiltration Reduced surface area for diffusion: Low V/Q due to partially

collapsed alveoli

Decreased Delivery with Normal Oxygen Extraction: Reduced Hb Reduced SaO2 Reduced Blood Volume Reduced CO Normal delivery with increased O2 consumption or extraction

CAUSES OF HYPOXIA CONTD..DIFFUSION DEFECT:

REDUCED MIXED VENOUS OXYGEN:

: 0.003 X PaO2 ( Normal is 0.3-0.5ml )

(19.5 ml) % of heme binding sites saturated with oxygen is the

Hb oxygen saturation %.

CaO2 = (1.34 X Hb X SaO2) + 0.003 X PaO2

Eg at 100% SaO2, Hb 15g%, PaO2 120 mm Hg CaO2= (1.34 X 15 X 100/100)+(0.003 X 120) =20.46ml

OXYGEN CONTENT (CaO2)

DISSOLVED

BOUND TO HAEMOGLOBIN

OXYGEN HAEMOGLOBIN DISSOCIATION CURVE

Depends on oxygen content and cardiac output = CO X CaO2 = 5000 X 20/100 = 1000ml/min : Oxygen consumption by tissue per min. 250ml/min at rest : Oxygen Extraction Ratio VO2/DO2 = 0.25 (Normal range is 0.22-0.32)Indicates balance b/w delivery and uptakeLow Values: Flow Maldistribution Metabolic PoisonHigh Values: Compensatory increase in extraction for reduced

delivery.

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is the therapeutic use of oxygen at pressures greater than 1 atm.

Indications:

Hyperbaric Oxygen

Inhibition of Hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction

Increased SVR with reduced coronary, cerebral and renal blood flows.

Reduced cardiac output & haemodynamic instability.

Increased production of reactive oxygen species.

Paradoxical decrease in O2 consumption due to maldistribution of blood flow due to peripheral shunts which open up to protect the vital organs from non-physiological

effects of hyperoxia.

The Dark Side of Oxygen

CO2 Narcosis: In COPD patients, high FiO2 removes the hypoxic drive & causes hypoventilation and narcosis.

Denitrogenation Adsorption Atelectasis

O2 Toxicity: Respiratory: ARDS Like syndrome Neurological: Seizures (Hyperbaric) Children: Bronchopulmonary dysplasia Retrolental fibroplasia
