EVALUATION OF THE N.I.H. MIDGET PHOTOMETER FOR THE ESTIMATION OF CARBOXYHEMOGLOBIN.

Abstract

The NIH Midget Photometer was calibrated and tested for accuracy in the estimation of carboxyhemoglobin. In 13 samples of blood the analytic discrepancies between photometric and gasometric methods vaired from + 1.6 to -3.6 per cent COHb; the mean deviation was 1.3 per cent. (Author)
