Concentration of Oxygen in Blood

Oxygen saturation is a relative measure of the concentration of oxygen that is dissolved or carried in a given medium as a proportion of the maximal concentration that can be dissolved in that medium.

The concentration of oxygen in the blood increases directly with increasing partial pressure of oxygen within the blood and hemoglobin concentration.

Formula

QuantityVariable[Subscript["CtO", "2"], "VolumeFraction"] == Quantity[0.00003, "MillimetersOfMercury"^(-1)]*QuantityVariable[Subscript["PO", "2"], "Pressure"] + Quantity[1.34, "Milliliters"/"Grams"]*QuantityVariable["Hb", "MassDensity"]*QuantityVariable[Subscript["SO", "2"], "Unitless"]

symbol description physical quantity
CtO2 concentration of oxygen in blood "VolumeFraction"
PO2 partial pressure of oxygen in blood "Pressure"
Hb hemoglobin concentration in blood "MassDensity"
SO2 oxygen saturation of hemoglobin "Unitless"
