Personnel monitoring reports list which of the following occupational exposures?

1:55 PM

What is the approximate normal CaO2 – CvO2 in a healthy adult at rest?

A patient breathing room air at sea level has the following arterial blood gases: PaO2 = 62 mm Hg; PCO2 = 75 mm Hg. When the FIO2 is raised to 0.28, the PaO2 rises to 95 mm Hg. What is the most likely cause of the hypoxemia?

Even in healthy young subjects, regional differences in pulmonary ventilation and blood flow result in the PaO2 being lower than the PAO2. Why is this so?

The highest PCO2 levels are found in what location in the human body?

A 70-kg male patient has a CO2 of 200 ml/min and a VA of 9 L/min. From this information, what can you infer?

What occurs in the bases of the lung when a person is standing upright?

If a patient has a VT of 400 ml and a respiratory rate of 15 breaths/min, what is the minute ventilation?

What is used for setting optimal PEEP on a ventilator?
