ALVEOLAR EQUATIONALVEOLAR EQUATION
DefinitionsDefinitionsF – fraction of gas in a given medium
– I: Inspiratory air– A: alveolar space
P– partial pressure of a gas in a given medium– I: Inspired air – A: alveolar space – a: pulmonary capillary
V – rate of production/movement of gas– VA: alveolar ventilation– VCO2: rate of production/elimination of CO2
– VO2: rate of production/elimination of O2
Boyle’s Law (P1Boyle’s Law (P1XXV1=P2V1=P2XXV2)V2)
As the size of closed container decreases, pressure inside is increased
The molecules have less wall area to strike so the pressure on each inch of area increases.

Dalton’s LawDalton’s Law Each gas in a mixture of gases exerts its own
pressure– as if all other gases were not present– partial pressures denoted as p
Total pressure is sum of all partial pressures– Fir inspired air at atmospheric pressure (760
mm Hg) = pO2 + pCO2 + pN2 + pH2O– to determine partial pressure of O2-- multiply
760 by % of air that is O2 (21%) = 160 mm Hg

Dalton’s Law of Partial Dalton’s Law of Partial PressurePressure
Total Pressure = Sum of individual gas pressures.
Partial Pressure = Pressure that each gas would exert if it were alone.

Henry’s LawHenry’s Law
Quantity of a gas x that will dissolve in a liquid
Vx depends upon the solubility coefficient of the
gas in liquid and to it’s partial pressure in the
liquid-gas interface

Property of Property of Gases/AtmosphereGases/Atmosphere
Increasing altitude - reduced air pressure - reduced O2 levels– e.g. at 3,000 m 563 mm Hg, O2 14.5 %
– (in water descend of 10 m increased pressure by 760 mm Hg)
Water solubility of Gases (relative)– CO2:O2:N2 ca. 20:1:0 (overall decrease with rising
temperature)
– hyperbaric O2-chamber: treatment of Gangrene, asphyxiation, circulatory shock, etc.
O2 toxicity >2.5 - 3 x above normal
(A-a) O2 difference(A-a) O2 difference Clinical significance –
– Bed-side measure of gas (oxygen) transfer
Can be calculated easily from the alveolar gas
equation and from blood gases analysis
Normal values < 20 mm Hg
Different forms of Hypoxia:
– With normal (A-a) O2 difference
– With increased (A-a) O2 difference
Calculation of (A-a) O2 Calculation of (A-a) O2 differencedifference
(A-a) O 2 Difference = PAO2 – PaO2
PAO2 = PIO2 – PaCO2/R
PIO2 = (Pb – PH2O) x FIO2
PAO2 = (Pb – PH2O) x FIO2 – PaCO2/R
PaO2 & PaCO2 – Measured in ABG
