environment) and Fetal response to interruption of oxygen transfer (intrinsic factors/internal
environment)



Total amount of oxygen in arterial blood consists of two components:


o :## PaO2 and SaO2



% of PaO2, or "floating" oxygen


o :## 1-2%



% of SaO2, or "bound" oxygen

o :## 98-99%



True or False: The "extra" floating oxygen that is dissolved in plasma creates an increased

"pressure" that helps bind oxygen to hemoglobin


o :## True



Oxygen saturation, or SaO2 is...


o :## % of oxygen carried on hemoglobin



Hemoglobin can carry a maximum of ___ molecules of oxygen


o :## 4



What is the maternal oxygen pathway?


o :## Environment, lungs, heart, vasculature, uterus, placenta, umbilical cord, fetus



What occurs once maternal oxygen reaches the vasculature?


o :## Oxygenated blood travels from the lungs to the uterus via the pulmonary veins, left
atrium and ventricle, aorta, and uterine arteries



What is passive diffusion?


o :## Diffusion of oxygen across the placenta that eventually leads to the spiral arteries that
infiltrate the intervillous space of the placenta. The oxygenated blood bathes the chorionic
villi on the fetal side of the placenta.

o :## False. This occurs at the placental level.



Oxygen affinity is...


o :## The ability of hemoglobin to acquire and release oxygen molecules. "attraction"



True or False: Higher PaO2 levels in the lungs decrease the hemoglobin's affinity for oxygen


o :## False. It increases the affinity



True or False: Lower PaO2 levels in the body tissues allows oxygen to be readily released

from the hemoglobin

o :## Exercise, uterine contractions (labor), increased metabolism, certain medications,
transfusing PRBC



Factors that decrease oxygen delivery to the tissues include:


o :## Hypovolemia, hypoxemia, anemia (mother needs to retain)
