Time and sample site dependency of the optimized CO-rebreathing method

Article Abstract:

A study was aimed to compare capillary and venous sample of blood collected simultaneously to determine whether the site of blood sampling alters to measured percentage of carboxyhemoglobin (%HbCO) and hence the calculated [Hb.sub.mass]. It was found that a modified 2-min CO-rebreathing procedure using capillary of venous blood sampled 8 and 10 min after starting CO-rebreathing allows complete circulatory mixing and provides an accurate and reliable estimate of [Hb.sub.mass].
