FORSTER, HV, JA DEMPSEY, J. THOMSON, E. VIDRUK, AND GA DOPICO. Estimation of arterial POT, Pco~, pH, and lactate from arterialized venous blood. J. Appl. Physiol. 32 (l): 134-137. 1972.-Comparisons were made between arterial and arterialized venous blood POT, Pco~, pH and lactate. Normal subjects and patients were studied during normal resting conditions, submaximal and maximal work, CO2 breathing, and several levels of hypoxia. After heating of the hand (43 C), blood was sampled simultaneously from catheters placed in a brachial artery and a superficial dorsal hand vein. Pco:! and lactate of the venous blood were systematically slightly higher and pH was lower than arterial blood. Minimal variance in the difference between the paired samples and the consistency over all conditions permit accurate correction of venous to arterial acid-base values. The Poq of the venous blood was always significantly lower than arterial, but the difference was reduced with hypoxemia. This indirect method does not provide valid estimation of Paos under any conditions studied. Recommendations for application of the proposed method of arterialization were discussed, with particular reference to: a) its advantages over the more conventional capillary sampling technique and b) the limitations of its application in respiratory studies. indwelling catheter; rest, exercise, hypoxia, and hypercapnia; venous arterialization vs. capillary sampling; limitations of predictabilityIN RESTING MAN breathing room air, the Pco~, pH, Paz, and oxygen saturation of arterialized capillary blood are virtually identical to arterial blood. Both earlobe (2, 3, 6-9, 12, 13, 17-l 9) and fingertip (3, 6, 11, 17) capillary blood provide these “arterial” values. Under the same conditions, arterialized venous blood, sampled from superficial hand or forearm veins, provides values similar to but not always identical to arterial(4, 5, 8, 14, 15). These indirect measurements are widely used to determine: I) the adequacy of alveolar ventilation, 2) physiological dead space, 3) alveolar-toarterial Paz gradients, 4) pulmonary venous to arterial shunts, and 5) cardiac output with CO2 rebreathing. Often, however, there is need for these determinations under conditions other than at rest during air breathing. The purpose of the present study was, then, to determine the accuracy of estimating these arterial parameters from arterialized venous blood during: 1) normal resting conditions, 2) submaximal and maximal work, 3) CO, breathing, and 4) several levels of hypoxia.
