title: On the reliability of the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation in routine clinical acid-base chemistry.
abstract: This paper deals with the variability of the practical coefficient of the first ionisation equilibrium of carbonic acid as related to the CO2 in the liquid phase (Henderson-Hasselbalch equation) (Formula: see text) and that of the practical coefficient of the first ionisation equilibrium of carbonic acid as related to the CO2 in the gas phase (modified Henderson-Hasselbalch equation) (Formula: see text).
