Effects of Transfusion on Systemic Oxygen Uptake

  • Conference paper
Update 1989

Part of the book series: Update in Intensive Care and Emergency Medicine ((UICM,volume 8))

Abstract

The transport system for oxygen from the environment to the mitochondria comprises a highly complex sequence of diffusive and convective processes, providing several mechanisms to adapt oxygen delivery to the wide variations of metabolic needs in different tissues. If oxygen demand rises, most readily adjustments in pulmonary gas exchange, cardiac output, hemoglobin oxygen binding, vascular tone, distribution of flow and oxygen extraction increase the availability of oxygen to the cell. Hence, systemic oxygen need depends primarily upon the intrinsic metabolic rate, set by the actual physical activity, body temperature, nutritional and metabolic status, level of catecholamines and stress hormones.
