Respiratory System<br />
Gas Transport<br />
▪ Abnormal blood-gas blood gas levels<br />
▸ Arterial O 2 abnomalities<br />
♦ Hypoxic hypoxia<br />
– Low arterial blood O 2 - inadequate Hb & blood saturation<br />
♦ Anemic hypoxia<br />
– Reduced O 2-carrying capacity<br />
♦ Circulating hypoxia<br />
– Too little oxygenated blood delivered to tissues<br />
♦ Histoxic hypoxia<br />
–O 2 delivery normal, but cells cannot use the O 2 delivered to them
