    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    This study defines the normal range for hemoglobin-oxygen affinity in healthy individuals. The findings indicate a narrow normal range, suggesting standard values are generally representative for most clinical applications.

    Area of Science:

    • Physiology
    • Biochemistry

    Background:

    • Hemoglobin-oxygen affinity is crucial for oxygen transport.
    • Variations in affinity are observed in various disease states.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To precisely quantify the normal range of hemoglobin-oxygen affinity in healthy subjects.
    • To establish mathematical models for average normal affinity and its confidence limits.

    Main Methods:

    • Measurement of continuous blood oxygen affinity in healthy individuals.
    • Application of mathematical data reduction techniques.
    • Calculation of coefficients for rational function models.

    Main Results:

    • The average normal P50 (partial pressure of oxygen at 50% hemoglobin saturation) was determined to be 27.10 torr.

  • A two-standard-deviation range of 25.85 to 28.35 torr was calculated.
  • The 95% confidence limits for P50 were found to be 26.69 and 27.53 torr.

    • Conclusions:

    • The normal range for hemoglobin-oxygen affinity is narrow.
    • Standard affinity values closely approximate normal ranges for practical purposes.
    • Deviations in disease states should be readily distinguishable from normal values.
