Definition Description
The IEEE 11073 Standards Committee does not distinguish between measures of gas concentration reported as partial pressure and volume percent because they can be converted from one to the other under the law of gases. To make it clear that these could be reported either way, LOINC presents the property for these terms as both a volume fraction and a partial pressure (VFr/PPres), with corresponding units of %{vol} and mm[Hg], respectively.

Change Reason Public
Changed System from "Airway" to "Airway adaptor" to clarify meaning per IEEE 11073:10101a standard and to distinguish the "Airway adaptor" device from "Respiratory system.airway", which is the airway portion of the patient respiratory system. Common Test Rank
