bypass (CPB), and to oxygenate blood in longer term life support, termed extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). A membrane oxygenator consists of a thin...

blood oxygen levels. Oxygenation occurs when oxygen molecules (O 2) enter the tissues of the body. For example, blood is oxygenated in the lungs, where...

usage within the body. A lower oxygenation index is better - this can be inferred by the equation itself. As the oxygenation of a person improves, they will...

such as hypothermia, hyperbaric oxygenation, apneic oxygenation (see below), or extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, much longer periods of apnea may...

of changes in seawater oxygenation, during much of the Neoproterozoic have been interpreted to reflect progressive oxygenation punctuated by temporary...

Hypoxia (hypo: "below", oxia: "oxygenated") refers to low oxygen conditions. For air-breathing organisms, hypoxia is problematic. But for many anaerobic...

to expand our knowledge on the effect and the mechanisms behind tumor oxygenation." Low-quality evidence suggests that hyperbaric oxygen therapy may reduce...

which oxygenation of blood in the lungs displaces carbon dioxide from hemoglobin, increasing the removal of carbon dioxide. Consequently, oxygenated blood...

Arteries carry oxygenated blood away from the heart to the tissues, except for pulmonary arteries, which carry blood to the lungs for oxygenation (usually veins...
