Determinants of PaO2

Alveolar Air Equation:
PAO2=FiO2(BP-VP)-PaCO2/R
 A-a Gradient= PAO2-PaO2

So PaO2=FiO2(BP-VP)-PaCO2/R - A-a Gradient
Increases in Inspired Oxygen Concentrations
Do Not Substantially Improve paO2 in
the Presence of Substantial Shunt

A clinic patient complains of shortness of breath
for the past 9 months. Spirometry and lung
volume measurements are read as showing a
restrictive abnormality. The differential diagnosis
of this patient consists of three disorders,
including:
A) Bronchitis, asthma, sleep apnea
B) Chest wall disorders, muscle weakness,
interstitial lung disease
C) Upper airway diseases, asthma, COPD
D) Pulmonary embolism, cardiomegaly, liver
disease
E) Emphysema, muscle weakness,
hepatopulmonary syndrome
