Manufacturer technical parameter description, Hemoglobin: Structure and function and total-hemoglobin definition. Gives the worked oxygen-binding coefficient 1.34 mL oxygen per gram hemoglobin, distinguishes bound from dissolved oxygen and identifies carboxyhemoglobin/methemoglobin in total hemoglobin.
Additional manufacturer parameter definitions: https://www.radiometer.com/en/products/blood-gas-testing/parameters/methemoglobin , What is MetHb?, distinguishes ferric from ferrous haem; https://www.radiometer.com/en/products/blood-gas-testing/parameters/carboxyhemoglobin , What is COHb?, defines carbon-monoxide binding; https://www.radiometer.com/en/products/blood-gas-testing/parameters/oxygen-saturation , definition and Physiological background, defines functional saturation with oxyhemoglobin plus deoxyhemoglobin as denominator and states four oxygen molecules per fully occupied tetramer. These biochemical and measurement definitions are the cited locators; no clinical thresholds or management instructions are imported.
