In contrast to arterial hypoxia, which may result from five different pathophysiologic derangements, arterial hypercapnia can always be interpreted as signifying alveolar hypoventilation. This is true because arterial PCO2 (PaCO2) is governed by the relationship between CO2 production and alveolar ventilation. 1, record 1, English, - arterial%20PCO2
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 OBS
PaCO2: To be distinguished from PACO2, which is alveolar pressure of carbon dioxide. 3, record 1, English, - arterial%20PCO2
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 2 OBS
arterial PCO2: The number 2 is subscripted. 3, record 1, English, - arterial%20PCO2

Mesure de la pression partielle d'anhydride carbonique dans le sang artériel (PaCO2): L'évaluation de la PaCO2 peut se faire directement à l'aide d'une méthode électrométrique utilisant une électrode de verre à mesure de pH en contact avec une solution de bicarbonate et coiffée d'une membrane de téflon (électrode de Severinghauss). 2, record 1, French, - pression%20partielle%20du%20gaz%20carbonique%20dans%20le%20sang%20art%C3%A9riel
