cause of carbon monoxide poisoning
by the burning of fossil fuels within in enclosed space
HB-O2 curve under effects of CO
shifted to left and never reaches 100% saturation
-line plateus (flat) at 50% saturation
why does HB never reach 100% saturation
because CO will never fall of the HB
and
any o2 bound to hb will want to remain bound, reducing available hemoglobin for oxygen.
summary
lower hb % saturation
soft of o2 curve to left
explain carbon monoxide for the exam
