==Overview==
==Overview==
[[Cyanosis]] occurs due to increased concentration of deoxygenated [[hemoglobin]] in the capillary bed. [[Cyanosis]] is commonly caused by respiratory disorders that inhibits oxygen from reaching the [[Pulmonary alveolus|alveoli]] or interrupt its movement across the alveolar interface. It is also seen in a wide variety of cardiac and vascular disorders by mixing oxygenated blood with deoxygenated blood (eg, vascular shunts or intracardiac shunts), structural or vascular alteration in pulmonary blood flow, cardiac decompensation with [[pulmonary edema]], or [[shock]].
[[Cyanosis]] is commonly caused by respiratory disorders that inhibits oxygen from reaching the [[Pulmonary alveolus|alveoli]] or interrupts its movement across the alveolar interface. It is also seen in a wide variety of [[Heart|cardiac]] and [[vascular]] disorders by mixing [[Blood|oxygenated blood]] with [[Blood|deoxygenated blood]] (eg, vascular [[Shunt (medical)|shunts]] or intracardiac [[Shunt (medical)|shunts]]), structural or vascular alteration in [[Lung|pulmonary]] [[blood]] flow, [[Peripheral arterial disease|peripheral vascular diseases]], and [[Heart|cardiac]] [[decompensation]] with [[pulmonary edema]] or [[shock]].


==Causes==
==Causes==
[[Cyanosis]] can be caused by the following mechanisms, systemic arterial oxygen desaturation and increased oxygen extraction by the tissues. Based on these mechanisms, cyanosis can be either central or peripheral. Certain conditions present with bluish purple discoloration of skin or mucous membranes can mimic cyanosis, are not associated with [[hypoxemia]] or peripheral vasoconstriction and is called Pseudocyanosis.

Overview

Cyanosis is commonly caused by respiratory disorders that inhibits oxygen from reaching the alveoli or interrupts its movement across the alveolar interface. It is also seen in a wide variety of cardiac and vascular disorders by mixing oxygenated blood with deoxygenated blood (eg, vascular shunts or intracardiac shunts), structural or vascular alteration in pulmonary blood flow, peripheral vascular diseases, and cardiac decompensation with pulmonary edema or shock.

Causes

Cyanosis can be either central or peripheral. Certain conditions present with bluish-purple discoloration of skin or mucous membranes can mimic cyanosis, are not associated with hypoxemia or peripheral vasoconstriction and is called Pseudocyanosis.

Life Threatening Causes

Life-threatening causes include conditions which may result in death or permanent disability within 24 hours if left untreated.

Common causes

Central cyanosis

There following are some of the common causes of central cyanosis:

Peripheral Cyanosis:

There following are some of the common causes of peripheral cyanosis: [34][35]

Pseudocyanosis:
