Oxygen Content of Hemoglobin

The oxygen content of hemoglobin, ctO
bound to hemoglobin.
oxygen saturation and oxygen capacity, is a useful parameter for determining the
amount of oxygen in the blood that is actually available to the tissues and for
determining the effectiveness of oxygen therapy.

Oxygen Capacity of Hemoglobin

The oxygen capacity of hemoglobin (BO
that the hemoglobin in a given quantity of blood can carry. This value represents
the potential of hemoglobin to bind to oxygen and includes all the oxygen that can
be bound to the available hemoglobin.
with hemoglobin oxygen saturation and oxygen content, is a useful parameter for
determining the amount of oxygen in the blood that is actually available to the
tissues and for determining the effectiveness of oxygen therapy.
The oxygen capacity of hemoglobin is determined using the following equation:
