Application of the optimized carbon monoxide rebreathing method for the measurement of total haemoglobin mass in chronic liver disease
BACKGROUND: Anemia is common in liver cirrhosis. This generally infers a fall in total hemoglobin mass (tHb‐mass). However, hemoglobin concentration ([Hb]) may fall due to an expansion in plasma volume (PV). The “optimized carbon monoxide rebreathing method” (oCOR) measures tHb‐mass directly and PV...
