How is blood chemistry related to ventilation?

Ventilation is controlled by certain centers in the brain stem that monitor the pH of the blood.The pH is usually a result of the amount of carbonic acid in the present in the blood. Carbonic acid is the 'transportable' form of CO2. Therefore, if the pH is too low, the body thinks it needs to get rid of carbon dioxide and does so by increasing ventilation which allows CO2 to be "blown off". Furthermore, if the pH gets too high, ventilation will be suppresses to allow carbonic acid to "build up" to decrease the pH.However, the pH can be changed by other acid/basic chemical accumulations/deficiencies in the blood, and the same ventilation responses result. For example, even if the carbonic acid level is NORMAL, if there is an increase inlactic acid, the blood pH will decrease. This will cause ventilation to increase to blow off some carbonic acid (even though the carbonic acid is normal) to try to raise pH back to normal.Therefore, we know that although breathing is INDIRECTLY related to CO2 levels MOST OF THE TIME, it is ALWAYS DIRECTLY related to pH levels, and decreased pH causes increased ventilation, while increased pH causes decreased ventilation.

Which drug is advicable for High Uric acid?

There several drugs used to reduce uric acid. Xanthine Oxidase Inhibitors, such as allopurinol work by decreasing the amount of uric acid produced by the body. Allopurinol is usually prescribed for patients who produce excessive amounts of uric acid in their body ("overproducers"). Uricosuric Agents, such as probenecid or sulfinpyrazone, work by helping the kidneys get rid of the excess uric acid produced in the body. Uricosuric agents are usually prescribed for patients whose kidneys cannot eliminate uric acid from the body ("underexcreters").

What builds up in muscles after a few seconds of intense activity?

Lactic acid is produced by muscles during intense activity. The human body has a way of removing the lactic acid. When the production of lactic acid overcomes the body's ability to remove it, a side stitch commonly occurs.Regular exercise can improve the body's ability to cope with lactic acid buildup.


Why do you need a ventilation system?

Ventilation is the mass flow of air into and out of the lungs. Ventilation of the lungs is necessary as it brings oxygen into the body for body processes such as respiration and ventilation of the lungs release carbon dioxide from the body.
