ABA-ANES · Sample question
A patient under general anesthesia develops a decrease in arterial oxygen saturation despite adequate chest rise and delivered ventilation. The anesthesiologist suspects the most common mechanism of hypoxemia during anesthesia. Which mechanism best explains this finding?
A. Ventilation-perfusion mismatch is correct because the source pack identifies V/Q mismatch as the most common cause of hypoxemia during anesthesia. Under anesthesia, oxygenation problems often arise when ventilation and pulmonary blood flow are not appropriately matched.
B. Complete absence of alveolar ventilation is not the best answer because the vignette describes adequate chest rise and delivered ventilation, and the source pack emphasizes V/Q mismatch rather than absent ventilation as the most common anesthetic cause of hypoxemia.
C. Isolated increase in pulmonary perfusion without altered matching is incorrect because the key abnormality is the relationship between ventilation and perfusion, not perfusion alone. Hypoxemia in this context is best explained by mismatching.
D. Normal matching between ventilation and perfusion is incorrect because normal V/Q matching would support, rather than impair, oxygenation.
