Parent topics
- Blood [r]: The body fluid that circulates in the vascular system (i.e., blood vessels). Whole blood includes plasma and blood cells. [e]
- Gas [r]: One of the major states of matter (i.e., gas, liquid, solid and plasma). [e]
- Analytical chemistry [r]: Subfield of chemistry concerned with finding what constituents are in an unknown sample (i.e., qualitative analysis) and how much of each (i.e., quantitative analysis) [e]
Subtopics
- Pulse oximetry [r]: Non-invasive method allowing the monitoring of the oxygenation of a patient's haemoglobin. [e]
- Capnography [r]: Continuous recording of the carbon dioxide content of expired air. [e]
- Ion selective electrode [r]: Electrodes which can be used to measure the concentration of particular ions in cells, tissues, or solutions. [e]
- Oxygen [r]: A chemical element with the symbol O and atomic number 8. [e]
- Carbon dioxide [r]: Chemical compound composed of two oxygen atoms covalently bonded to a single carbon atom. [e]
- Carbon monoxide [r]: A colorless, odorless, and tasteless gas that is slightly lighter than air and consists of one carbon atom and one oxygen atom. [e]
- Hyperoxia [r]: An increased partial pressure of oxygen in the blood. [e]
- Hypoxia [r]: A decreased partial pressure of oxygen in the blood. [e]
- Hypercapnia [r]: An increased partial pressure of carbon dioxide in the blood. [e]
- Hypocapnia [r]: A decreased partial pressure of carbon dioxide in the blood. [e]
- Intensive care [r]: Advanced and highly specialized care provided to medical or surgical patients whose conditions are life-threatening and require comprehensive care and constant monitoring. It is usually administered in specially equipped units of a health care facility, directed by intensivists. [e]
- Gas embolism [r]: Add brief definition or description
