A Left shift in Oxyhemoglobin Dissociation Curve - Correct Answers-A left shift will increase
oxygen's affinity for hemoglobin.
In a left shift condition (alkalosis, hypothermia, etc.) oxygen will have a higher affinity for
hemoglobin. SaO2 will increase at a given PaO2, but more of it will stay on the hemoglobin and
ride back through the lungs without being used. This can result in tissue hypoxia even when
there is sufficient oxygen in the blood.
