Oxygen dissociation curve shifts to the right by all of the following except:
High-Yield Explanation
A shift to the left indicates acceptance of oxygen by hemoglobin and the shift to right indicates dissociation of oxygen from hemoglobin. Factors favoring shift to right are —
Decreased PO2
Increased PCO2 (Bohr effect)
Increase in H+ concentration or decreased pH
Excess of 2, 3 DPG (exercise, high altitudes)
Increased body temperature
