In this week's module, you will design an infographic that highlights the exchange of medical gases (oxygen and carbon dioxide) across the alveolar capillary membrane.
Instructions:
- Identify the solubility coefficient of oxygen and carbon dioxide
- Label the diffusion coefficient of oxygen and carbon dioxide
- Illustrate the exchange (ratio) of oxygen and carbon dioxide across the A/C membrane
- Provide relevant information for an audience of respiratory therapy students who is treating a patient with a diffusion defect noted in an arterial blood gas (i.e. Covid-19, ARDS, Pulmonary Edema)
