Oxygen delivery

Oxygen delivery to periphery depends on the O2 content & tissue blood flow (equal to CO)

O2 Delivery

DO2 = CaO2 x CO

O2 Content

CO2 = (1.36 x Hb x O2Sat/100) + (0.003 x PO2)

O2 Consumption Fick

VO2 = CO x (CaO2 – CvO2)

O2 Dissociation

Curve relates O2 sats at varying O2 tensions.
