Figure 11 Comparison of effective PAO2 and PAO2 in mixed alveolar gas estimated from ventilation-perfusion distribution decided by multiple inert-gas elimination technique.
Effective PAO2 and PAO2 estimated from multiple inert-gas elimination technique were compared [patients with interstitial pneumonia (n = 14) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (n = 11)]. Coincidence of two PAO2 is satisfactory. See text for further explanation.
