Fig. 4From: Evaluation of time courses of agreement between minutely obtained transcutaneous blood gas data and the gold standard arterial data from spontaneously breathing Asian adults, and various subgroup analysesComparison of bias at 30 min among four sensor locations. The absolute values of bias obtained via forearm (n = 143) and chest (n = 129) sensors were equivalent, and were significantly lower than those obtained via the earlobe (n = 17) or forehead (n = 6) sensors for both PCO2 and PO2. The absolute values of PO2 bias obtained via the earlobe sensor were significantly lower than those obtained via the forehead.
