Horowitz index adjusted to patients actual temperature in Venous blood   50991-9

LOINC Code


LOINC code50991-9
nameHorowitz index adjusted to patients actual temperature in Venous blood
descriptionA ratio with numerator = venous oxygen partial pressure (PaO2) in mmHg and denominator = fraction of inspired oxygen (FIO2) with no units. If the patient is breathing room air (20% O2) the fraction would be 0.20. It is reported in mmHg. It is a well established marker for lung function during mechanical ventilation and used in many acuity scores like SAPS II, SAPS III, and SOFA.

propertyRatio
timePt  =  Point in time:  To identify measures at a point in time. This is a synonym for “spot” or “random” as applied to urine measurements.
systemBldV+Inhl gas
    Inhl gas  =  Inhaled gas
    BldV  =  Blood venous
scaleQn  =  Quantitative:  The result of the test is a numeric value that relates to a continuous numeric scale. Reported either as an integer, a ratio, a real number, or a range. The test result value may optionally contain a relational operator from the set {<=, <, >, >=}. Valid values for a quantitative test are of the form "7", "-7", "7.4", "-7.4", "7.8912", "0.125", "<10", "<10.15", ">12000", 1-10, 1:256
