title: [Blood gas analysis in surgical geriatric gynecology].
abstract: At 36 women ranging in age from 60 to 87 years, who received general anaesthesia for gynaecological operations, pO2 and acid-base-status were controlled before and two hours after operation and on the 1st and 3rd postoperative days. At these geriatric patients the results showed mean values of pO2 in relation to the age and normal parameters of the acid-base status. Comparing the abdominal and vaginal operations no significant differences could be found. The comparison between patients aged 60 to 69 years and these over 70 years showed only small but clinically insignificant differences of base excess. These beneficial results are the consequences of a successful, complications avoiding pre- and postoperative treatment.
