  • Method and apparatus for determination of dissociation of oxygen from blood
    Patent number: 4120658
    Abstract: Method and apparatus are disclosed for the determination of the dissociation characteristics of oxygen from blood. The functional relationship between increasing liquid phase P.sub.02 and decreasing pH is determined and presented in the form of a continuous curve for values ranging from desaturation to saturation. By analyzing this data through linear regression techniques, the characteristic parameter of the oxygen dissociation curve P.sub.50, may be easily determined.
