Overview of oxygenation. Why we need Oxygen. Tissue Oxygenation. Dr Sridhar Kalyanasundaram

For Medics. In this video, I give an overview of why the body needs oxygen, how aerobic metabolism of glucose differs from anaerobic metabolism, what factors determine oxygenation, a brief overview of hemoglobin and oxygen hemoglobin dissociation curve, cardiac output and impact on tissue oxygenation and impact of lung disease on oxygenation. Hope this is useful, this will be followed by part 2 (on measurement of oxygenation with focus on pulse oximetry) and part 3 (focused on oxygen toxicity and target oxygen saturation).
