Oxyhemoglobin dissociation curve calculated using Buerk's equation. The equation contains a term dependent on Temp, CO2, DPG, and pH.

Description

   Oxyhemoglobin dissociation curve by Buerk's equation. Model requires 2 parameters 
 (O2 partial pressure and rate parameter, K) and a scaling factor. Four additional 
 parameters (T, DPG, pH, CO2) are needed when calculating SHbO2 for nonstandard 
 conditions. Compare and contrast to other HbO2 dissociation calculations such as 
 Hill (model #0028), Severinghaus (#0027), Adair (#0238), Kelman (#0294), and Dash (#0032).

Equations

The equations for this model may be viewed by running the JSim model applet and clicking on the Source tab at the bottom left of JSim's Run Time graphical user interface. The equations are written in JSim's Mathematical Modeling Language (MML). See the Introduction to MML and the MML Reference Manual. Additional documentation for MML can be found by using the search option at the Physiome home page.
