Agreement between arterial and non-arterialised fingertip capillary blood gas and acid-base values
European Clinical Respiratory Journal, 2019 Background: Arterial puncture is considered the gold standard for obtaining blood gas and acid-base values and facilitates the assessment of acutely and critically ill patients, as well as control of patients in long-term oxygen therapy (LTOT ...

In silico modeling of oxygen-enhanced MRI of specific ventilation. [PDF]
, 2018 Specific ventilation imaging (SVI) proposes that using oxygen-enhanced 1H MRI to capture signal change as subjects alternatively breathe room air and 100% O2 provides an estimate of specific ventilation distribution in the lung.

Clinical applications of blood gas analysis: a comparative review of arterial and venous blood gas monitoring in critical care [PDF]
Acute and Critical CareBlood gas analysis is an essential diagnostic tool used for assessing acid-base balance, ventilation, and oxygenation in critically ill patients. Arterial blood gas analysis (ABGA) remains the gold standard, primarily due to its accuracy in measuring ...

Stability of blood gases when refrigerated [PDF]
, 2012 Background: Blood gas analysis is a widely used procedure. In clinical practice, the physicians may not always have a blood gas analyzer in their proximity. Not infrequently, blood gas samples are stored in a fridge or on ice and read retrospectively.
