Abstract

Effects of hemoglobin concentration (Hb), pH, and body temperature (T) on the relationships between ΔlogPO2T and PO2 were studied by means of a mathematical model using a Newton-Raphson iteration method. The functions between ΔlogPO2T and PO2 were affected by the above three factors. New equations considering the effects of Hb, pH, and T were proposed by modifying the equation reported by Severinghaus: ΔlogPO2T=(L+(U-L)/(A(vPO237)B+1))(10-2) where U=3.15-0.45(7.4-pH37) L=0.68-0.09(7.4-pH37) A=5.86(exp10(0.074(T)-0.294(7.4-pH37)-11))((Hb)0.913) B=6.33(exp10(-0.0051(T)))((Hb)-0.113)+0.24(7.4-pH37) and vPO237 is virtual PO237 which may exist when PO237 is corrected to standard conditions (pH=7.4, BE=0) by the following equations: vPO237=PO237(exp10(fB(7.4-Ph37)-0.0013(BE))) fB=(PO237/26.6)0.08-1.52 where fB is the Bohr factor. The above equations provided values of ΔlogPO2T which fit closely to those obtained by the complex iteration method with maximum differences of less than 1.3×10-3 at T=27, indicating that maximum % errors for PO2 at T (PO2T) are less than 3.0% at T=27 and that our equations can be applied over a wide range of Hb, Ph37 and T.
