➡️ What is Alveolar Ventilation?
It refers to the ventilatory process that takes place in the alveoli of the lungs. This is where the body is able to take in oxygen and remove carbon dioxide. Alveolar Ventilation can actually be calculated by multiplying the breathing frequency by the alveolar tidal volume per breath. The efficiency of alveolar ventilation relies on the amount of gases that reach the alveoli. And by gases, what I'm actually referring to is air.

➡️ For example:
If alveolar ventilation increases, the lungs would remove too much CO2 causing the PaCO2 to decrease. This is known as hyperventilation and would result in an increased pH, which is known as respiratory alkalosis. The opposite is true if alveolar ventilation is decreased because, then, too much CO2 would accumulate in the body causing the pH to decrease. This is known as respiratory acidosis.
