[Guide to the automated calculation of acid-base equilibrium].
The sequence of calculations that can be entered in the memory of a desk computer for the automatic calculation of acid base balance parameters using data obtained with Astrup's tonometric method is described. A statistical comparison is also made between manually obtained results and those obtained with computer assistance. For clinical purposes the comparison is satisfactory.
