ABL800 FLEX Reference Manual 6. Parameters
Oxyhemoglobin dissociation curve (ODC), Continued
Coordinates on
the ODC
Calculation of a set of coordinates on the ODC is symbolized by:
Eq. 47:
S = ODC(P, A, T) or P = ODC(S, A, T)
These equations are symbolic representations of the relationship between saturation
(S), tension (P), displacement (A), and temperature (T).
To calculate S or P and to further calculate sO
2
and pO
2
, the other variables should
be specified. S and P are calculated using numerical methods.
P is input to equation 46.1.
S is input to equation 46.2.
A is input to equation 46.5.
T is input to equation 46.7.
