These two variables, V and Q, constitute the main determinants of the blood oxygen (O2) and carbon dioxide (CO2) concentration. The V/Q ratio can be measured with a two-part ventilation/perfusion scan (V/Q scan).[1] Using a small amount of inhaled or injected radioactive material called a tracer for visualization, a V/Q scan is a type of nuclear medical imaging that allows for localization and characterization of blood flow (perfusion scan) and measurement of airflow (ventilation scan) within the lungs.[2] V/Q scans are primarily used for the diagnosis of a blood clot in the lungs, called a pulmonary embolism.[3] A V/Q mismatch can cause Type 1 respiratory failure. Physiology Ideally, the oxygen provided via ventilation would be just enough to saturate the blood fully. In the typical adult, 1 litre of blood can hold about 200 mL of oxygen; 1 litre of dry air has about 210 mL of oxygen. Therefore, under these conditions, the ideal ventilation perfusion ratio would be about 0.95. If one were to consider humidified air (with less oxygen), then the ideal v/q ratio would be in the vicinity of 1.0, thus leading to concept of ventilation-perfusion equality or ventilation-perfusion matching. This matching may be assessed in the lung as a whole, or in individual or in sub-groups of gas-exchanging units in the lung. On the other side Ventilation-perfusion mismatch is the term used when the ventilation and the perfusion of a gas exchanging unit are not matched. The actual values in the lung vary depending on the position within the lung. If taken as a whole, the typical value is approximately 0.8.[4] Because the lung is centered vertically around the heart, part of the lung is superior to the heart, and part is inferior. This has a major impact on the V/Q ratio:[5] apex of lung – higher base of lung – lower In a subject standing in orthostatic position (upright) the apex of the lung shows higher V/Q ratio, while at the base of the lung the ratio is lower but nearer to the optimal value for reaching adequate blood oxygen concentrations. While both ventilation and perfusion increase going from the apex to the base, perfusion increases to a greater degree than ventilation, lowering the V/Q ratio at the base of the lungs. The principal factor involved in the creation of this V/Q gradient between the apex and the base of the lung is gravity (this is why V/Q ratios change in positions other than the orthostatic position). --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Join this channel to get access to the perks: Sign up now on our website at https://members.drnajeeblectures.com/ Follow us on Facebook:-   / drnajeeb   Follow us on Instagram:-   / drnajeeblectures
