Qp / Qs
(Last Updated - 12/28/2009)

-the form below uses the equation:

Qp / Qs =

VO2 / (PVO2 - PAO2) * Hgb * 10
VO2 / (PVO2 - MVO2) * Hgb * 10

Where:
     VO2 = Oxygen consumption
     PVO2 = Pulmonary Venous Sat = Wedge (PCWP) Sat
     PAO2 = Pulmonary Arterial Sat
     MVO2 = Mixed Venous Sat = [(3 * High SVC Sat) + IVC Sat] / 4

VO2, Hgb and the fudge factor of 10 cancel each other out


Pulmonary Venous Sat (PVO2) (%):
Pulmonary Arterial Sat (PAO2) (%):
High SVC Sat (%):
IVC Sat (%):
