  • Automatic Quality Control

 

When simplicity and quality CO-oximetry is paramount, consider the ABL80 FLEX CO-OX analyser – OSM version, which delivers reliable test results on CO-oximetry parameters in as little as 60 seconds.
 
As a portable, multi-test, stand-alone CO-oximetry analyser, the ABL80 FLEX CO-OX analyser – OSM version is ideal for use in Cath Labs and EDs. A compact system with automatic quality control and full data integration, it also offers a standby mode to reduce consumable costs.

Parameters measured

Oximetry: 
ctHb

Total hemoglobin

The concentration of total hemoglobin (ctHb) in blood includes oxyhemoglobin (cO2Hb), deoxyhemoglobin (cHHb), as well as the dysfunctional hemoglobin species that are incapable of binding oxygen:

carboxyhemoglobin (cCOHb) (see COHb), methemoglobin (cMetHb) (see MetHb) and sulfhemoglobin (cSulfHb).

Thus:

ctHb = cO2Hb + cHHb + cCOHb + cMetHb + cSulfHb

The rare sulfHb is not included in the reported c tHb in most oximeters. [1]

, sO2

Oxygen saturation

Oxygen saturation (sO2) is the ratio of oxyhemoglobin concentration to concentration of functional hemoglobin (i.e. oxyhemoglobin (O2Hb) and deoxyhemoglobin (HHb) capable of carrying oxygen [1].

The sO2 reflects utilization of the currently available oxygen transport capacity.

In arterial blood 98 – 99 % of oxygen is transported in erythrocytes bound to hemoglobin. The remaining 1–2 % of the oxygen transported in blood is dissolved in the blood plasma – this is the portion reported as partial pressure of oxygen (pO2) [2,3].

, COHb

Carboxyhemoglobin

FCOHb is the fraction of total hemoglobin (ctHb) which is present as carboxyhemoglobin (COHb). By convention the fraction is expressed as a percentage (%).

In the range of 0 – 60 % COHb in arterial (COHb(a)) and venous blood (COHb(v)) is similar, i.e. either venous or arterial blood may be analyzed [1]. In most medical texts FCOHb(a) is referred to as simply COHb. [2]

Methemoglobin

FMetHb is the fraction of total hemoglobin (ctHb) that is present as methemoglobin (MetHb). By convention the fraction is expressed as a percentage (%) [1].

In most medical text boxes MetHb(a) is referred to as simply methemoglobin (MetHb). [2]
