| name | ||
| description | Base excess of fully oxygenated mixed venous blood. | |
| status | ACTIVE | |
Fully-Specified Name | ||
| component | Base excess.100% oxygenated^^standard | |
| property | SCnc = Substance Concentration | |
| time | Pt = Point in time: To identify measures at a point in time. This is a synonym for “spot” or “random” as applied to urine measurements. | |
| system | BldMV = Blood: mixed Venous | |
| scale | Qn = Quantitative: The result of the test is a numeric value that relates to a continuous numeric scale. Reported either as an integer, a ratio, a real number, or a range. The test result value may optionally contain a relational operator from the set {<=, <, >, >=}. Valid values for a quantitative test are of the form "7", "-7", "7.4", "-7.4", "7.8912", "0.125", "<10", "<10.15", ">12000", 1-10, 1:256 | |
| method | Calculated | |

| formula (readable) | cBase(B,ox) = cBase(B) - 0.3062 x ctHb x (1 - sO2) where cBase(B,ox) is cBase(B) of fully oxygenated blood; cBase(B) is the Actual base excess (ABE); ctHb is the total hemoglobin concentration; and sO2 is oxygen saturation. | |
| example UCUM units | mmol/L The Unified Code for Units of Measure (UCUM) is a code system intended to include all units of measures being contemporarily used in international science, engineering, and business (www.unitsofmeasure.org) | |
