![]() ![]() The hypoxaemia in V/Q mismatch normally responds well to oxygen therapy by improving alveolar oxygenation in low V/Q areas. Blood is diverted to other areas and low V/Q regions are created to compensate. This occurs in areas where perfusion is limited, for example in pulmonary embolism, resulting in alveolar units with a high V/Q. ![]()
