Abstract

Objective To study the hypoxemia in 26 patients with cirrhosis of liver with blood gas analyses. Methods PaO 2, SaO 2, PaCO 2 and pH of arterial blood were determined in 26 cases with hepatic cirrhosis and 8 healthy subjects by using the apparatus for blood gas analysis (IL 1306) made in USA. Result Compared the studied group with the control group, PaO 2 fell significantly ( P 0.01). The frequency of hypoxemia in the studied group was 53.8%. Conclusion The incidence of hypoxemia increases in cirrhotic patients when the hepatic reserve function falls.(Shanghai Med J, 2000,23∶481 482)
