Study Notes
Cardiopulmonary Equations
- Cardiac output (Q) is calculated by: Q = Heart Rate (HR) × Stroke Volume (SV)
- Mean arterial pressure (MAP) is calculated by: MAP = (2 × Diastolic Pressure + Systolic Pressure) / 3
- Resistance (R) is calculated by: R = Mean arterial pressure (MAP) / Cardiac output (Q)
- Ejection fraction (EF) is calculated by: EF = (End-diastolic volume - End-systolic volume) / End-diastolic volume
Respiratory Equations
- VD/VT ratio measures the dead space ventilation, which is the ratio of dead space volume (VD) to tidal volume (VT)
- Alveolar ventilation (VA) is calculated by: VA = (Respiratory Rate × (Tidal Volume - Dead Space Volume))
Oxygen Uptake and Efficiency
- Arterial-venous oxygen difference (a-vO2diff) is calculated by: a-vO2diff = Arterial oxygen content - Venous oxygen content
- Critical power (CP) is the highest power output that can be sustained over a long period of time
- Mechanical efficiency (ME) is calculated by: ME = (Work output / Energy expenditure) × 100
- Gross efficiency (GE) is calculated by: GE = (Work output / Energy expenditure including anaerobic and aerobic) × 100
- Net efficiency (NE) is calculated by: NE = (Work output / Energy expenditure from aerobic sources only) × 100
