Oxygen Capacity

the amount of oxygen that can be bound by the blood when completely saturated, expressed in volume percent.

The blood’s oxygen capacity depends on its hemoglobin concentration. A determination of oxygen capacity is important in characterizing the blood’s respiratory function. The oxygen capacity of human blood is about 18–20 volume percent.

oxygen capacity

ox·y·gen ca·pac·i·ty

the maximum quantity of oxygen that will combine chemically with the hemoglobin in a unit volume of blood; normally it amounts to 1.34 ml of O₂ per g of Hb or 20 ml of O₂ per 100 mL of blood.

oxygen capacity

The maximum amount of oxygen expressed in volume percent (cc per 100 ml) that a given amount of blood will absorb. For normal blood it is about 20 cc.
