Dynamics of the Pulmonary O2 Uptake to Blood Flow Ratio \(\left( {{\rm{\dot VO}}_{\rm{2}} {\rm{/\dot Q}}} \right)\) During and Following Constant-Load Exercise

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology ((AEMB,volume 393))

Abstract

For skeletal muscle during exercise, the difference between the content of its arterial inflow (CaO2) and the ratio of its metabolic rate \((\dot V{O_2})\) to blood flow \((\dot Q)\) determines the O2 content of its venous effluent (CvO2), ie:

$$ Cv{O_2} = Ca{O_2} - (\dot V{O_2}/\dot Q) $$
