Figure 5

Calculated data for the oxygen (O2) used by tissues that came from hemoglobin and dissolved sources vs. hemoglobin concentration. Figure 5A shows the total oxygen used from hemoglobin at 1) room air (RA) arterial oxygen partial pressure (PaO2) = 90 mm Hg (solid gray line), 2) PaO2 = 450 mm Hg (solid black line) and from dissolved at 1) RA, PaO2 = 90 mm Hg (dashed gray line), 2) PaO2 = 450 mm Hg (dashed black line). Figure 5B shows the percentage of oxygen used from hemoglobin at 1) room air, PaO2 = 90 mm Hg (solid gray line), 2) PaO2 = 450 mm Hg (solid black line) and from dissolved at 1) RA, PaO2 = 90 mm Hg (dashed gray line), 2) PaO2 = 450 mm Hg (dashed black line).
