2. Oxygen consumption rates can be calculated from blood gas measurements taken from arteries and veins. The equation is:
02 consumption = cardiac output x (arterial oxygen content – venous oxygen content)
At rest, you determine that the O, consumption is 250 mL O,/min, the arterial oxygen content is 110 mL O,L and the venous oxygen content is 55 mL O,/L. Given these
numbers, calculate the cardiac output for this individual.
