Regulation of oxygen delivery to the body via hypoxic vasodilation.
The respiratory system has traditionally been thought of as a two-gas model: hemoglobin (Hb) within red blood cells (RBC) binds oxygen in the lungs, delivers the oxygen to peripheral tissues, and binds carbon dioxide, which is returned to the lungs, released, and expired. However, fine-tuning of the system is required so that blood flow is preferentially shunted to tissues that have a greater n...
متن کاملLower versus Higher Oxygen Concentration for Delivery Room Stabilisation of Preterm Neonates: Systematic Review
BACKGROUND Emerging evidence suggests that initiating delivery room respiratory support or resuscitation for term infants using lower rather than higher concentrations of oxygen reduces mortality and the risk of serious morbidity. Uncertainty exists with regard to applicability of this strategy for preterm infants who have different underlying reasons for respiratory distress and risks for harm...
متن کاملIs the hypoxic ventilatory response driven by blood oxygen concentration?
Vertebrates breathe faster and deeper when confronted with low oxygen levels in the inspired water or air. The underlying mechanisms for this ubiquitous hypoxic ventilatory response, and the attendant cardiovascular responses, received considerable attention in the latter half of the 19th century. Indeed, the 1938 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine was awarded to Corneille Jean François Heym...
متن کاملRecovering from Faulty Device Drivers
Several studies (see Swift et. al.’s study of Windows XP in SOSP 2003 and Chou et. al’s study of Linux in SOSP 2001) have attributed a large fraction of operating system failures to device driver flaws. Not only can driver errors cause kernel instability, but these errors can also be exploited for privilege escalation and access to kernel data structures. A search on securityfocus.com shows vul...
متن کاملRelationships between inspired oxygen concentration and venous admixture during nitrous oxide-oxygen-halothane anaesthesia.
The inspired oxygen concentration (F/O2) was changed on 43 occasions at about 30-min intervals in 13 patients during artificial ventilation with mixtures of nitrous oxide (N2O), oxygen and halothane. Ventilator settings remained unchanged for each patient and at the end of each period, samples of arterial and central venous blood (and, in six patients, pulmonary arterial blood) and inspired and...
