Term 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.

Part Description

LP100617-2   Nitrous oxide
Nitrous oxide is an inorganic inhaled anesthetic. It has the fastest onset among inhalation agents but is the least potent and therefore often requires more than 1 minimum alveolar concentration (MAC). The dosage of nitrous oxide being administered is set and monitored throughout general anesthesia. PMID: 19108597 Source: Regenstrief LOINC

Change Reason
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.
