[Methodical studies of transmucosal oxygen partial pressure measurement in the calf and dog].
Transcutaneous PO2-measurement has been thought being non practicable in veterinary medicine. Consequently, the measuring method has been slightly modified. PO2 was taken from the mucous membrane of the lower surface of tongue. This has been practised in 6 dogs and 10 calves. We achieved a significant correlation between transmucosal and arterial PO2, taken simultaneously in each animal. Considering these results the use of transmucosal measurement may be recommended for a trend-measuring in anesthesized animals. Nevertheless, there has to be pointed out that transmucosal PO2 has to be interpreted regarding its complexity.
