Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Patients who are anemic do not have normal oxygen-carrying capacity.As a result,oxygen cannot properly perfuse the tissues,which results in hypoxemia.Ventilation is impaired when oxygen/carbon dioxide exchange occurs at the alveolar level.Hypovolemia is a decrease in circulating blood volume.Lung compliance refers to the elasticity of the lung tissue.
