Discussion post

In this discussion board, we will explore the findings of severe Covid-19 patients with a left shift in the O₂HB dissociation curve.

Instructions

1. Read the following study, paying particular attention to the findings and hypothesis: Oxyhemoglobin Dissociation Curve and Covid-19
2. Identify at least one additional journal article that describes and complements the concept that disease can create a shift in the binding potential of oxygen and hemoglob
3. Post your initial response which should include the following:
   1. A summary of the findings and hypothesis of the article you read.
   2. Identification of at least one additional journal article that describes and complements the concept that disease can create a shift in the binding potential of oxygen and hemoglobin.
   3. Incorporate the Bohr Effect and Haldane Effect oxygen uptake into blood and tissue in your discussion.
   4. A mention of how the findings of severe Covid-19 patients with hypoxemia are associated with a left shift in the O₂HB dissociation curve might your understanding impact your practice.
   5. At least 300 words.
