Which gas law affects patients the most? Boyle's Law
What is Boyle's Law volume inversely r/t pressure
gas molecules smaller and move faster at lower altitudes
What is Dalton's Law law of partial pressures
1 atm = ___ mmHg 760
33 ft = ___ m = __ atm 10.3 m or 1 atm
Mean Sea level (MSL) true altitude regardless of terrian
Above Ground Level (AGL) absolute altitude, terrain considered
What is the pressure at sea level? 1 atm
** ensure you add 1 atm to pressure questions
What is the partial pressure of Oxygen? 21%
What is the partial pressure of Oxygen at sea level? 760mmHg x 21% = 159.6
Formula to calculate FiO2 patient will need at a higher altitude (starting FiO2 x starting
pressure)/ending pressure
