Hi akka, i was working in this field from somedays before only. I learned about VIE through your Videos...super akka, lot of effforts 👏👏👏 Is your work related to medical or engineering
Mam I have a confusion in understanding how equilibrium of CO2 occurs with alveoli, I mean 46mmHg is partial pressure of CO2 in pul. artery when it passes the alveoli CO2 escapes from it so the partial pressure gets to 40mmHg in pul. vein but how it becomes 40 mmHg in alveoli ? If from 46, 40 is transferred in alveoli then shouldn't only 6mmHg remain in pul. vein. This I'm not understanding since a long time in physiology, I know I'm making some blunder in this concept but I'm unable to get it. Please help me with it.
Also if diffusion is maximum of CO2 as it being a highly soluble gas, shouldn't it reach 23mmHg in equilibrium with alveoli ? As no significant CO2 is there in alveoli from inspiration ,so maximum diffusion would only allow 23 mmHg to get transferred. This is the way diffusion has been taught in our chemistry, I'm not able to apply it on lung's diffusion process.
