What effect does hemoglobin amount have on oxygenation status?

Sagot :

Answer:

oxygen delivery decreases and oxygen extraction is increased

Explanation:

In anemic patients, oxygen delivery decreases and oxygen extraction is increased. This leads to decreased venous hemoglobin saturation and a lower tissue oxygen saturation. The rate of tissue deoxygenation during ischemia is dependent on oxygen consumption and on the amount of oxygen available in the tissue
