Pulse oximetry (SpO2) values were recorded at the exact time of arterial blood sampling using two pulse oximeters (Nellcor and Masimo). Arterial saturation (SaO2), the reference value, was measured ...

准确评估机体有无缺氧及严重程度具有重要意义。目前缺氧状态是根据低氧血症的标准来判断，但循环性、血液性和组织性这三种缺氧类型都不会出现低氧血症，实际上仅适用于评估呼吸系统疾病所致的低张性（呼吸性）缺氧的情况。该文从缺氧的类型、与低氧 ...
