Abstract :
THE BIOLOGICAL measurement of PO2 (partial pressure of oxygen) in the blood or various other tissues is today a very common and important parameter in the evaluation of patients in various states of health. Routine PO2 measurements are carried out by sampling the blood at relatively large time intervals and utilizing the well-known Clarke-type electrodes [1]. These electrodes are relatively large and are included in the various biological gas measurement systems widely used in every hospital.
