Abstract
Lowering hemoglobin affinity for oxygen improves O2 release capacity but two physiological consequences of an increase in P50 are expected: 1/ an increase in oxygen tension in peripheral capillary blood, 2/ a decrease in blood perfusion in order to minimize the amplitude of change in capillary oxygen tension (GUYTON, 1976). To maintain oxygen uptake, tissular perfusion should be regulated by a vascular constriction and the increased capillary-tissue O2 diffusion would be compensated for by a lowered O2 transport.
