Respiratory Response To High Altitude | Acclimatization Physiology | Respiratory Physiology

✨High Altitude Physiology is quite complex. In this video I've made an attempt to briefly summarise and explain some of the changes that happen with focus on points that are usually needed for the USMLE Step 1. I hope it helps you with studying! 😊
🔢 The numbers used in this video are only to illustrate the reduction in barometric pressure and so, oxygen for explanation purposes.

    The density of air at high altitude is low so rapid and easy movement of air through alveolar capillary memb and easy diffusion might be the only reason .

    High altitudes bring various changes in physiology of respiration and circulation as result of hypoxemic hypoxia , Our body shows physiological readjustments and compensatory mechanisms to the changes caused by hypoxia . And this mechanism of readjustments is called as Acclimatisation. To make it simpler Acclimatisation is read under ¹changes in VENTILATION ²changes in CIRCULATION ¹Due to hypoxic conditions, there is increased rate of breathing and depth of breathing (hyper ventilation) this results in increased loss of carbon dioxide leading to RESPIRATORY ALKALOSIS (PH Lowered) In response to this altered PH of CSF And BLOOD, firstly central chemoreceptors detect reduced H+ ions -------> Reduce hyperventilation ------->PH of csf back to normal . Secondly Kidneys Lowers H+ secretion and HC0³ reabsorption -----> PH of blood back to normal . ² changes in CIRCULATION : Hypoxia is potent stimulus for Renal erythropoetin production . Hypoxia ----> stimulates erythropoetin gene-----> Production of more RBC -----> POYCYTHEMIA . POYCYTHEMIA on one hand helps to cope up with the hypoxic conditions on the other hand causes increase in viscosity of blood and inturn increase in resistance of blood flow ------>low perfusion of blood in tissues . Increased RBC -----> increased 2,3 DPG ------>reduces affinity of Hb towards O2 . Hypoxia on systemic vessels ------> vasodilation Pulmonary vessels-------> vasoconstriction Due to increased capillary pressure causes Pulmonary edema and cerebral edema. All this i grabbed from this video itself . Hope u find it helpful too . ✌
