  2. Haldane effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haldane_effect

    Thus, the Haldane effect describes the ability of hemoglobin to carry increased amounts of carbon dioxide (CO 2) in the deoxygenated state as opposed to the oxygenated state. Vice versa, it is true that a high concentration of CO 2 facilitates dissociation of oxyhemoglobin, though this is the result of two distinct processes (Bohr effect and ...

  3. Effect of oxygen on chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effect_of_oxygen_on...

    The Haldane effect: most carbon dioxide is carried by the blood as bicarbonate, and deoxygenated hemoglobin promotes the production of bicarbonate. Increasing the amount of oxygen in the blood by administering supplemental oxygen reduces the amount of deoxygenated hemoglobin, and thus reduces the capacity of blood to carry carbon dioxide.

  4. Carbaminohemoglobin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbaminohemoglobin

    In the absence of oxygen, unbound hemoglobin molecules have a greater chance of becoming carbaminohemoglobin. The Haldane effect relates to the increased affinity of de-oxygenated hemoglobin for H +: offloading of oxygen to the tissues thus results in increased affinity of the hemoglobin for carbon dioxide, and H +

  5. Haldane's decompression model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haldane's_decompression_model

    Haldane's decompression model is a mathematical model for decompression to sea level atmospheric pressure of divers breathing compressed air at ambient pressure that was proposed in 1908 by the Scottish physiologist, John Scott Haldane (2 May 1860 – 14/15 March 1936), [1] who was also famous for intrepid self-experimentation.

  6. Physiology of decompression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physiology_of_decompression

    An example of this would be breathing air in a heliox environment. The helium in the heliox diffuses into the skin quickly, while the nitrogen diffuses more slowly from the capillaries to the skin and out of the body. The resulting effect generates supersaturation in certain sites of the superficial tissues and the formation of inert gas ...

  7. Decompression theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decompression_theory

    The physics and physiology of bubble growth and elimination indicate that it is more efficient to eliminate bubbles while they are very small. Models which include bubble phase have produced decompression profiles with slower ascents and deeper initial decompression stops as a way of curtailing bubble growth and facilitating early elimination ...

    John Scott Haldane CH FRS [1] (/ ˈ h ɔː l d eɪ n /; 2 May 1860 – 14/15 March 1936) was a Scottish physician physiologist and philosopher famous for intrepid self-experimentation which led to many important discoveries about the human body and the nature of gases. [2]
