DEFINITION SOB :

Q.1

Inability to ventilate enough to satisfy the demand for air (AIR HUNGER)

Respiration : Provides oxygen, Removes Co2

Shortness of Breath

Problems delivering Oxygen

DURING

1. Pulmonary Ventilation (atmospherealveoli) 2. Diffusion O2 and Co2 (AlveoliBlood) 3. Transport O2 and Co2 (Bloodbody cells) 4. Regulate ventilation.
