Pulmonary Gas Exchange,rapulmonary determinants of respiratory blood gases include the fractional concentration of O. in the inspired gas, the hemodynamic status (cardiac output), and the metabolic demands (O. consumption) of the body.

The controversial areas of so-called ‘cor pulmonale’, ‘right heart failure’, the syndrome of fluid retention and therapy for pulmonary vascular disease in patients with hypoxic COPD will also be discussed.
