Developed by [[Adolf Eugen Fick]] (1829–1901), the '''Fick principle''' has been applied to the measurement of [[cardiac output]]. Its underlying principles may also be applied in a variety of clinical situations. | |||
The essence of the Fick principle is that blood flow to an organ can be calculated using a marker substance if the following information is known: | |||
*Amount of marker substance taken up by the organ per unit time | |||
*Concentration of marker substance in arterial blood supplying the organ | |||
*Concentration of marker substance in venous blood leaving the organ | |||
In Fick's original method, the "organ" was the entire human body and the marker substance was oxygen. | |||
The principle may be applied in different ways. For example, if the blood flow to an organ is known, together with the arterial and venous concentrations of the marker substance, the uptake of marker substance by the organ may then be calculated. | |||

The Fick principle relies on the observation that the total uptake of (or release of) a substance by the peripheral tissues is equal to the product of the blood flow to the peripheral tissues and the arterial-venous concentration difference (gradient) of the substance. In the determination of cardiac output, the substance most commonly measured is the [[oxygen]] content of [[blood]] thus giving the arteriovenous oxygen difference, and the flow calculated is the flow across the pulmonary system. This gives a simple way to calculate the cardiac output: | |||
:<math> \text{Cardiac Output} = \frac {\text{oxygen consumption}} {\text{arteriovenous oxygen difference}} </math> | |||
Assuming there is no intracardiac shunt, the pulmonary blood flow equals the systemic blood flow. Measurement of the arterial and venous oxygen content of blood involves the sampling of blood from the pulmonary artery (low oxygen content) and from the pulmonary vein (high oxygen content). In practice, sampling of peripheral arterial blood is a surrogate for pulmonary venous blood. Determination of the oxygen consumption of the peripheral tissues is more complex. | |||
The calculation of the arterial and venous oxygen concentration of the blood is a straightforward process. Almost all oxygen in the blood is bound to [[hemoglobin]] [[molecule]]s in the [[red blood cell]]s. Measuring the content of hemoglobin in the blood and the percentage of saturation of hemoglobin (the oxygen saturation of the blood) is a simple process and is readily available to physicians. Using the fact that each [[gram]] of hemoglobin can carry 1.36 ml of [[oxygen|O<sub>2</sub>]], the oxygen content of the blood (either arterial or venous) can be estimated by the following formula: | |||
:<math> \text{Oxygen Content of blood} = \left [\text{Hb} \right] \left ( \text{g/dl} \right ) \ \times\ 1.36 \left ( \text{ml}\ O_2 /\text{g of Hb} \right ) \times\ O_2^{\text{saturation fraction}} +\ 0.0032\ \times\ P_{O_2} (\text{torr}) </math> | |||
Assuming a hemoglobin concentration of 15 g/dl and an oxygen saturation of 99%, the oxygen concentration of arterial blood is approximately 200 ml of O<sub>2</sub> per litre. | |||
The saturation of mixed venous blood is approximately 75% in health. Using this value in the above equation, the oxygen concentration of mixed venous blood is approximately 150 ml of O<sub>2</sub> per litre. | |||

28 year-old Painting Investments Worker Truman from Regina, usually spends time with pastimes for instance interior design, property developers in new launch ec Singapore and writing. Last month just traveled to City of the Renaissance. Developed by Adolf Eugen Fick (1829–1901), the Fick principle has been applied to the measurement of cardiac output. Its underlying principles may also be applied in a variety of clinical situations.
The essence of the Fick principle is that blood flow to an organ can be calculated using a marker substance if the following information is known:
- Amount of marker substance taken up by the organ per unit time
- Concentration of marker substance in arterial blood supplying the organ
- Concentration of marker substance in venous blood leaving the organ
In Fick's original method, the "organ" was the entire human body and the marker substance was oxygen.
The principle may be applied in different ways. For example, if the blood flow to an organ is known, together with the arterial and venous concentrations of the marker substance, the uptake of marker substance by the organ may then be calculated.
Variables
In Fick's original method, the following variables are measured:[1]
- VO2, oxygen consumption in ml of pure gaseous oxygen per minute. This may be measured using a spirometer within a closed rebreathing circuit incorporating a CO2 absorber
- Ca, the oxygen concentration of blood taken from the pulmonary vein (representing oxygenated blood)[2]
- Cv, the oxygen concentration of blood from an intravenous cannula (representing deoxygenated blood)
Equation
From these values, we know that:
where CO = Cardiac Output, Ca = Oxygen concentration of arterial blood and Cv = Oxygen concentration of mixed venous blood.
This allows us to say
and hence calculate cardiac output.
Note that (Ca – Cv) is also known as the arteriovenous oxygen difference.[3]
Assumed Fick determination
In reality, this method is rarely used due to the difficulty of collecting and analysing the gas concentrations. However, by using an assumed value for oxygen consumption, cardiac output can be closely approximated without the cumbersome and time-consuming oxygen consumption measurement. This is sometimes called an assumed Fick determination.
A commonly used value for O2 consumption at rest is 125ml O2 per minute per square meter of body surface area.
Underlying principles
The Fick principle relies on the observation that the total uptake of (or release of) a substance by the peripheral tissues is equal to the product of the blood flow to the peripheral tissues and the arterial-venous concentration difference (gradient) of the substance. In the determination of cardiac output, the substance most commonly measured is the oxygen content of blood thus giving the arteriovenous oxygen difference, and the flow calculated is the flow across the pulmonary system. This gives a simple way to calculate the cardiac output:
Assuming there is no intracardiac shunt, the pulmonary blood flow equals the systemic blood flow. Measurement of the arterial and venous oxygen content of blood involves the sampling of blood from the pulmonary artery (low oxygen content) and from the pulmonary vein (high oxygen content). In practice, sampling of peripheral arterial blood is a surrogate for pulmonary venous blood. Determination of the oxygen consumption of the peripheral tissues is more complex.
The calculation of the arterial and venous oxygen concentration of the blood is a straightforward process. Almost all oxygen in the blood is bound to hemoglobin molecules in the red blood cells. Measuring the content of hemoglobin in the blood and the percentage of saturation of hemoglobin (the oxygen saturation of the blood) is a simple process and is readily available to physicians. Using the fact that each gram of hemoglobin can carry 1.36 ml of O2, the oxygen content of the blood (either arterial or venous) can be estimated by the following formula:
Assuming a hemoglobin concentration of 15 g/dl and an oxygen saturation of 99%, the oxygen concentration of arterial blood is approximately 200 ml of O2 per litre.
The saturation of mixed venous blood is approximately 75% in health. Using this value in the above equation, the oxygen concentration of mixed venous blood is approximately 150 ml of O2 per litre.
Cardiac output may also be estimated with the Fick principle using production of carbon dioxide as a marker substance.[4]
Use in renal physiology
The principle can also be used in renal physiology to calculate renal blood flow.[5]
In this context, it is not oxygen which is measured, but a marker such as para-aminohippurate. However, the principles are essentially the same.

In its statement, the singapore property listing - website link, government claimed that the majority citizens buying their first residence won't be hurt by the new measures.

Extending the tax exemption would help. The exemption, which may be as a lot as $2 million per family, covers individuals who negotiate a principal reduction on their existing mortgage, sell their house short (i.e., for lower than the excellent loans), or take part in a foreclosure course of.

A vendor's stamp duty has been launched on industrial property for the primary time, at rates ranging from 5 per cent to 15 per cent.
