There is a special relationship that exists in our blood between the amount of oxygen thats available and the percentage of hemoglobin that is saturated. This relationship is often represented as a graph which we commonly refer to as the oxygen-hemoglobin dissociation curve. Depending where our patient is on the curve it can tell us different things, as well as we have physiologic changes that take place, both naturally at different parts in the body as well as a result of various disease or other external processes that can alter this relationship. These alterations can result in right shift or left shift of the curve and have very different effects on the use and availability of oxygen.
