WORKING OUT HOW MUCH WE BREATH INTO THE DOUGLAS BAG


Enter the amount of air breathed into the douglas bag

Enter the time breathed into the douglas bag

Litres per min

This is how we can put the figures into our calculator.

Ve ATPS = Douglas bag volume / Time of Collection
Ve ATPS = / =

WORKING OUT VE (STPD) AND BTPS
We can now work out two standards.

Ve STPD = Ve ATPS x 273/(273+T) x (Pb-Pw)/760
Ve BTPS = Ve ATPS x 310/(273+T) x (Pb-Pw)(Pb-47)

Enter the bp

Enter the lab temp in deg:

Enter the Water/Vapour pressure in mmHg:

Ve=

BTPS =

This is how we can put the figures into our calculator.

Ve STPD = Ve ATPS x 273/(273+T) x (Pb-Pw)/760
Ve = x 273 / (273+ ) x ( - ) / 760 =

Ve BTPS = Ve ATPS x 310/(273+T) x (Pb-Pw)(Pb-47)
Ve BTPS = x 310 / ( 273 + ) x ( - )( - 47) =  

WORKING OUT OUR Vi, Vo2, Vco2 AND RER
We
can then work out the Vi STPD by placint VE STPD into our new formula after we enter the fration of expired O2 and CO2
.
Vi = Ve STPD x (1-(Fe02 + FeC02))/0.7904

Enter fraction of expired O2:

Enter fraction of expired CO2:

Vi=

This is how we can put the figures into our calculator.

Vi = Ve STPD x (1-(Fe02 + FeC02))/0.7904
Vi = x( 1 - ( + )) / 0.7904 =  

We now have Vi, so we can put this into our formula's to get Vo2 and VCo2
Remember that we know FVi o2 and FVi Co2 as this is the amount that is present in the air.

What we already know as this is what is the amount we breath from the air.
FVi o2 = 0.2093
and
FVi co2 = 0.0003

Vo2 = (Vi x FVi o2) - (Ve STPD x Fe o2)
Vco2 = (Ve x Fe co2) - ( Vi x FVi Co2)

Vo2=  

This is how we can put the figures into our calculator.

Vo2 = (Vi x FVi o2) - (Ve STPD x Fe o2)
Vo2 = ( x 0.2093) - ( x )=

Vco2 =  

This is how we can put the figures into our calculator.

Vco2 = (Ve x Fe co2) - ( Vi x FVi Co2)
Vco2 = ( x ) - ( x 0.0003) =

Once you have V02 and VC02 you can then calculate the RER
By dividing VC02 by V02
RER = VCO2 / V02

RER =

This is how we can put the figures into our calculator.

RER = VCO2 / V02
RER = / =

WORKING OUT OUR RELATIVE Vo2 AND Vco2

By dividing the persons body weight we can now work out the relative Vo2 and Vco2 compared to body weight.

Relative Vo2 = Vo2 x 1000 / Body weight in Kg
Relative Vco2 = Vo2 x 1000 / Body weight in Kg

Enter the persons body weight in Kg:

Relative Vo2=

Relative Vco2=

This is how we can put the figures into our calculator.

Relative Vo2 = Vo2 x 1000 / Body weight in Kg
Relative Vo2 = x 1000 / =

Relative Vco2 = Vo2 x 1000 / Body weight in Kg

Relative Vco2 = x 1000 / =
