Abstract
Interest in developing a method for predicting arterial oxygen tension following changes in inspired oxygen concentration (FIO2) has existed since the advent of oxygen therapy. Hess [1] has published a predictive formula to accomplish this, and Abizanda and Lopez [2,3] have presented the same method in a different form. The validity of the method appears to be well established [1,2,4].
