The object of this work is solubility correlation and prediction of CO2 and H2S in various aqueous alkanolamines using the electrolyte cubic square-well equation of state (eCSW EoS) (Haghtalab, A.,Mazloumi, S. H., (2010), Electrolyte Cubic Square-Well Equation of State for Computation of the Solubility CO2 and H2S in Aqueous MDEA Solutions,  Ind. Eng. Chem. Res.,49,6221-623). The eEoS systemati...

alkanolamine solutions such as 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol (amp) are widely used in chemical industries for the removal of acid gases such as co2 and h2s. in this work, the density of co2, amp, water, and amp solutions using the goharshadi–morsali–abbaspour equation of state “gma eos” in the extended 50-degree range of temperatures (313.06-362.65 k) and pressures (0.5-40 mpa) was calculated. th...

Interpretation of Arterial blood gases is an essence of critical care. It helps for the assessment of clinical oxygenation, ventilation and acid-base status in critically ill patients. The four closely inter-related physiological parameters pH, PCO2, HCO3 and PO2 helps to diagnose, monitor and manage the ICU patients. Its correct interpretation and application necessitates the knowledge of basi...

We infused lidocaine intravenously into 13 pregnant ewes at a rate sufficient to maintain plasma levels between 2-4 mugm/ml, which are those commonly seen with regional anaesthesia. These levels did not change maternal blood pressure, pulse rate, cardiac output, stroke volume, total peripheral resistance, uterine blood flow or intra-amniotic pressure. Foetal blood pressure and pulse rate remain...

In a porcine preparation of cardiac arrest, we demonstrated that there is a marked paradox of venous acidemia and arterial alkalemia. This paradox is related to decreased clearance of CO2 from the lungs when pulmonary blood flow is critically reduced. Accordingly, increased venous PCO2 rather than metabolic acidosis due to lactic acidosis predominates during the initial 8 min of cardiopulmonary...
