Effects of inspired oxygen fraction in discriminating venous from arterial blood in percutaneous central venous catheterization under general anesthesia [PDF]
BackgroundA low fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) increases venous deoxygenated hemoglobin concentrations, making the color of the blood darker. The present study was aimed to determine the effects of FiO2 on the ability to discriminate venous from ...

Leukocyte sequestration in pulmonary microvessels and lung injury following systemic complement activation in rabbits [PDF]
Inflammatory reactions are associated with sequestration of leukocytes in the lung. Complement activation leads to accumulation of leukocytes in alveolar septa and alveoli, to lung edema and hemorrhage.

Reducing pain by using venous blood gas instead of arterial blood gas (VEINART): a multicentre randomised controlled trial [PDF]
IntroductionVenous sampling for blood gas analysis has been suggested as an alternative to arterial sampling in order to reduce pain. The main objective was to compare pain induced by venous and arterial sampling and to assess whether the type of sampling would affect clinical management or not.MethodsWe performed an open-label randomised multicentre ...

Arterial and Mixed Venous Blood Gas Tensions in Exercising Ducks
Adult White Pekin ducks were exercised at three work levels on a treadmill at speeds of .9, 1.47, and 2.16 km/hr for 20 min with a 90 min rest period following each exercise period. Blood gas and pH analyses were performed on samples simultaneously withdrawn from the brachial artery and the right ventricle (as an estimate of mixed venous blood) at ...
