Trending peripheral venous PCO2 in patients with respiratory failure using mathematically arterialised venous blood gas samples.

Published in: BMJ open respiratory research (2021)

This study suggests that trending pCO2v is not an accurate way to trend pCO2a in patients with respiratory failure. ΔpCO2ca via vTAC trended differently to ΔpCO2v. Our data suggest pCO2ca more accurately trends pCO2a.
