Do the factors affecting affinity of hemoglobin for oxygen have the same impact on loading and unloading in lungs and tissues? Explain your answer, and indicate if this presents a conflict in remedying hypoxia. Assuming a medical team has treatments available for changing all the factors affecting hemoglobin's oxygen affinity, how should they manipulate pH, temperature, PCO2, and 2,3-DPG content

in a hypoxic patient? What will be an ideal response?
