PaCO2 vs PCO2[edit]

Sorry, it is not clear to me, PaCO2 is for arterial and PCO2 is for venous blood? Elazar.Pimentel (talk) 05:16, 8 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Units[edit]

Some SI units (kPa) would be nice. --kupirijo (talk) 10:53, 21 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Kupirijo: Absolutely agree. Particularly given the article is not just within the medical field.

Separation of Physiology from Aquatic Sciences[edit]

I've reorganized the article to make the definition clearer and less repetitive. Wikilinks were added, along with a brief discussion of non-health science uses of pCO². I'm a chemical limnologist/oceanographer, so I focused more on the aquatic sciences, while not paying much attention to the now-renamed "Hematology" section. I'd welcome revisions and more citations to this latter section. — Preceding unsigned comment added by OHClNaMg (talk • contribs) 04:56, 25 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Partial pressure vs Concentration[edit]

In the first line it is mentioned that the units of partial pressure are same as units of atmospheric pressure. In the next line, the partial pressure is described as 419 ppm. Shouldn't the partial pressure be 0.04% * 760? 2409:4055:2E9C:E474:DC1E:7BFF:FE01:7C30 (talk) 21:29, 10 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
