Basic Needs: Oxygenation
Oxygenation
Oxygen is required to sustain life, primary basic human need
The cardiac & respiratory systems function to supply the body’s oxygen
demands
Cardiopulmonary physiology involves delivery of deoxygenated blood to the
right side of the heart & to the pulmonary system
What are the 2 mechanisms that
drive the function of the heart?
Electrical/conduction Mechanical/pump
Coronary Artery Circulation
Right Coronary Artery
Left Coronary Artery
Circumflex
Systemic Circulation
LV to aorta to arteries to arterioles to capillaries
Oxygen exchange occurs at the capillary level
Waste product exchange occurs here also and exits via venous system back
to lungs
Blood Flow Regulation
Cardiac Output
Cardiac Index
Stroke Volume
Ejection Fraction
Stroke Volume
Preload
Myocardial Contractility
Afterload
Conduction System
Rhythmic relaxation & contraction of atria & ventricles
Dependent on continuous transmission of electrical impulses
Influenced by ANS (Sympathetic & parasympathetic)
Conduction System
Originates in the sinoatrial node (SA node)
Intrinsic rate of 60-100 beats per minute
Electrical impulses transmitted through atria along intra-nodal pathways to
AV node
Conduction System
AV node mediates impulses between atria & ventricles
Intrinsic rate 40-60 beats per minute
AV node assists atrial emptying by delaying the impulses
before transmitting it through to the Bundle of His & Perkinje
fibers
Conduction System
Intrinsic rate of Purkinje fibers 20-40 beats per minute
EKG reflects the electrical activity of conduction system
Normal Sinus Rhythm

Electrical Cycle
NSR
Respiratory Physiology
Structure & Function
Respiratory Gas
Exchange
Structure & Function
Ventilation-Process of moving gases into and out of the lung
Requires coordination of the muscular & elastic properties of lungs & thorax
as well as intact innervation
Diaphragm-Major muscle of inspiration, innervated by phrenic nerve (3rd
cervical vertebrae)
Structure & Function
Work of Breathing
Degree of compliance of lungs
Airway resistance
Presence of active expiration
Use of accessory muscles of respiration
Lung Compliance
Ability of lungs to distend or expand in response to increased intra-alveolar
pressure, the ease in which lungs are inflated
Compliance is decreased in pulmonary fibrosis, emphysema
Lung compliance is affected by surface tension of alveoli, surfactant lowers
surface tension.
Airway Resistance
Pressure difference between the mouth & the alveoli in relation to the rate of
flow of inspired gas
Airway resistance increased in airway obstruction, asthma, tracheal edema
Structure & Function
Accessory Muscles
Assist in increasing lung volume during inspiration
Scalene & sternocleidomastoid (inspiration)
COPD patients use these frequently
Abdominal muscles
Trapezius muscle and pectoralis play minor role
Pulmonary Circulation
Move blood to and from the alveolocapillary membrane for gas exchange
Begins at pulmonary artery which receives deoxygenated blood from RV
Flow continues to PA to pulmonary arterioles to pulmonary capillaries where
blood comes in contact with alveolocapillary membrane
Respiratory Gas Exchange
Diffusion-movement of molecules from an area of higher concentration to
areas of lower concentration (oxygen & CO2)
Occurs at the alveolocapillary level
Rate of diffusion affected by thickness of membrane
Increased thickness: COPD, pulmonary edema, pulmonary infiltrates,
effusions
Oxygen Transport
Consists of lung & cardiovascular system
Delivery depends on O2 entering lungs (ventilation)
And blood flow to lungs & tissues (perfusion)
Rate of diffusion V/Q ratio
O2- carrying capacity
Oxygen Transport
O2 transport capacity affected by hemoglobin
Oxyhemoglobin
CO2 Transport-diffuses into RBC’s & is rapidly hydrated into carbonic acid
Regulation Of Respiration
CNS control rate, depth, & rhythm
Change in chemical content of O2, CO2 can stimulate chemorecptors which
regulate neural regulators to adjust rate & depth of ventilation to maintain
normal Arterial Blood Gases.

Factors Affecting Oxygenation:
Physiologic
Any factor that affects cardiopulmonary functioning
directly affects the body’s ability to meet O2 demands
Physiologic factors include: decreased O2 carrying capacity, hypovolemia,
increased metabolic rate, & decreased inspired O2 concentration
Conditions Affecting Chest Wall
Movement
Pregnancy
Obesity
Trauma
Musculoskeletal Abnormalities
Neuromuscular Disease
CNS Alterations
Influences of Chronic Disease
Alterations in Cardiac Functioning
Disturbances in Conduction
Altered Cardiac Output
Impaired Valvular Function

Disturbances of Conduction
Supraventricular dysrhythmias Dysrhythmias-deviation
from NSR
Junctional dysrhythmias
Classified by cardiac
Ventricular dysrhythmias response origin of impulse
Tachycardia
Bradycardia
Altered Cardiac Output
Right-sided heart Failure
Left-sided heart failure
Impaired Valvular Function
Stenosis
-Stenosis of valves can cause ventricles to hypertrophy (enlarge)
Obstruction of Flow
Valve Degeneration
Lead to Regurgitation of Blood
Valves
Impaired Tissue Perfusion:
Myocardial
Insufficient blood flow from coronary arteries to meet heart O2 demand
Manifested as angina, MI
Angina-transient imbalance between O2 supply & demand’ resulting in chest
pain
Atherosclerosis: most common cause of impaired blood flow to organs
Myocardial Ischemia
Myocardial Infarction-sudden decrease in coronary blood flow or an increase
in myocardial oxygen demand without adequate perfusion
Infarction occurs because of ischemia (reversible) or necrosis (irreversible) of
heart tissue
Impaired Tissue Perfusion
Cardiac perfusion
Cerebral perfusion (TIA, CVA)
Peripheral vascular perfusion
Incompetent valves
Thrombus formation
Blood alterations (anemia)
Electrical Picture of an MI
Alterations in Respiratory Function
Goal of ventilation is to produce a normal arterial CO2 tension (PaCO2)
between 35-45mmHg and maintain normal arterial O2 tension (PaO2)
between 95-100
Alterations affect ventilation or O2 transport
Hyperventilation, Hypoventilation, Hypoxia
Alterations in Respiratory Function
Hyperventilation- state of ventilation in excess of that required to eliminate
the normal venous CO2 produced by cell metabolism
Anxiety, infection, drugs or acid-base imbalance can produce hyperventilation
Hyperventilation
Lightheadedness
Disorientation
Dizziness
Tachycardia
Chest pain
SOB
Blurred vision
Extremity numbness
Hypoventilation
Alveolar ventilation is inadequate to meet body’s O2 demand
PaCO2 elevates, PaO2 drops
Severe atelectasis can cause
hypoventilation
Hypoventilation and COPD
Hypoventilation
Disorientation
Lethargy
Dizziness
Headache
Decreased ability to follow instructions
Convulsions
Coma
Dysrhythmias, cardiac death
Hypoxia
Inadequate tissue oxygenation at the cellular level
Deficiency of O2 delivery or O2 utilization at cell level
Causes: Decreased Hgb, diminished concentration of inspired O2, decreased
diffusion poor tissue perfusion, impaired ventilation
Hypoxia
Restlessness
Inability to concentrate
Decreased LOC
Dizziness
Behavioral changes
Agitation
Change in vital signs
