Yes, PO2: oxygen partial pressure


Good luck

Ventilation at maximal voluntary reduction of lung volume caused significant desaturation in some healthy subjects breathing air. Saturation rapidly returned to control levels when normal lung volume was regained. These changes are probably due to reversible airway obstruction. During the inhalation of oxygen, ventilation at maximal voluntary reduction of lung volume caused, in one subject, a reduction of arterial **PO2** of 243 mmHg. Normal arterial **PO2** was not immediately restored on regaining normal lung volume.....


Sternitzky R, Kessler H, Mrowietz C, Pindur G, Jung F. Effect of naftidrofuryl on intramuscular **partial oxygen pressure (pO2)** prior to, during and after physical load on the treadmill in apparently healthy subjects. Clin Hemorheol Microcirc. 2002;27(3-4):185-91.

Thanks Darby - Kwon
agree Cilian O'Tuama : strictly speaking, 'p' should be lowercase, 'O' uppercase and '2' subscript

Thanks Cilian. Yes, pO2(subscript) is the denotation in textbooks. In laboratory reports it's usually seen as "PO2". Thanks

Sauerstoff-Partialdruck

Symbol: pO2
Definition: Sauerstoff-Partialdruck in Blut
Hohe und niedrige pO2-Werte in arteriellem Blut indizieren Bluthyperoxie bzw. -Hypoxie.
