60935-4
ClinicalNitrogen [VFr/PPres] Airway adaptor --during expiration
Definition
The IEEE 11073 Standards Committee does not distinguish between measures of gas concentration reported as partial pressures and volume percents because they are convertable 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, with corresponding units of %{vol} and mm[Hg], respectively.
