Background: Total carbon dioxide content (TCO2) can be calculated from measured values of pH and pCO2 according to a simplified and standardized form of the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation, or measured directly.
Methods: We assessed the agreement between calculated TCO2 and measured TCO2 using a total of 74 blood samples...
