title: The performance characteristics of an intra-arterial oxygen electrode.
abstract: The performance characteristics of intravascular oxygen electrodes used during and after open heart surgery are described. The pO2 recorded continuously by the electrodes correlated extremely well with corresponding measurements made on samples of arterial blood. The results show that intravascular pO2 electrodes are accurate and can be readily used during surgery and intensive care of adult patients.
