[Intermittent transcutaneous monitoring of acid-base equilibrium in neonates]

The authors discuss intermittent transcutaneous monitoring of the acid base balance in blood where the feedback model: lungs-milieou intérieur is used as part of a new theory, i.e. the concept of "electronic blood" (Kovác A.) which implies simulation of the internal environment by a computer. Part of the model, evidence of the existing relationship of the external and internal environment are the following parameters: a shift in the Haldane effect and the constant in Haldane's effect. The authors compare the values of the acid-base balance obtained by surgical means and by means of a computer.
