Comment on Ceruti et al. Temporal Changes in the Oxyhemoglobin Dissociation Curve of Critically Ill COVID-19 Patients. J. Clin. Med. 2022, 11, 788.


ABSTRACT: Ceruti et al. describe in their article very low standard half saturation pressures (P50) in COVID-19 patients, calculated with the Dash et al. equations. By using the Hill equation and Severinghaus' coefficients we obtained normal values. The authors who do not present a pathophysiological cause for their results should explain this discrepancy. Independent of the absolute values a continuous moderate decrease of P50 in the surviving patients might be of clinical importance.
