of O2 (Hb + 4O2)
The P50 is the PO2 at which hemoglobin is 50% saturated and correlates
with PO2 of 27 mm Hg normally.
Standard O2-Hb dissociation applies under the exact following conditions:
A. Shifts the curve to the left, so that the hemoglobin has a decreased
oxygen affinity
B. Shifts the curve to the left, so that the hemoglobin has an increased
oxygen affinity
C. Shifts the curve to the right, so that the hemoglobin has a decreased
oxygen affinity
D. Shifts the curve to the right, so that the hemoglobin has an increased
oxygen affinity
A. Shifts the curve to the left, so that the hemoglobin has a decreased
oxygen affinity
B. Shifts the curve to the left, so that the hemoglobin has an increased
oxygen affinity
C. Shifts the curve to the right, so that the hemoglobin has a decreased
oxygen affinity
D. Shifts the curve to the right, so that the hemoglobin has an increased
oxygen affinity
Pulse oximeter will report a falsely elevated value for arterial oxygen
saturation percentage
D. Binding to hemoglobin
D. Binding to hemoglobin
