Parameters required to calculate:
oxygen content; oxygen consumption; SVR; PVR
a)
C02
b)
ml
O2/100 ml blood
c)
Equals O2 bound to Hb + dissolved O2
CO2 = (Hb conc [g/dl] ´ % sat ´ 1.34 ml O2/g Hb)
+ (0.003 ´ PO2)
d)
VO2
e)
ml
O2/min [minute O2 consumption]
f)
Based
on Fick equation
g)
Difference
in the O2 content between the arterial & venous blood multiplied
by flow
h)
VO2
= blood flow [l/min] ´ (CaO2 - CvO2)
2.
Systemic vascular resistance
