Alveolar gas equation — The alveolar pO2 is not routinely measured but is calculated from blood gas measurements by the Alveolar gas equation:p AO 2 = p IO 2 p ACO 2/R + F , where: * R is the Respiratory quotient (normally about 0.8)* pAO2 is the Alveolar pO2* pIO2 is… … Wikipedia
Alveolar macrophage — Micrograph showing hemosiderin laden alveolar marcophages, as seen in a pulmonary haemorrhage. H E stain. An alveolar macrophage (or dust cell) is a type of macrophage found in the pulmonary alveolus, near the pneumocytes, but separated from the… … Wikipedia
Gas cylinder — For the mechanical devices used to impart a force from a pressurized liquid or gas, see pneumatic cylinder. For the large structures used to store town gas, see gas holder. Industrial compressed gas cylinders used for oxy fuel welding and cutting … Wikipedia
gas — 1. A thin fluid, like air, capable of indefinite expansion but convertible by compression and cold into a liquid and, eventually, a solid. 2. In clinical practice, a liquid entirely in its vapor phase at one … Medical dictionary
