Comparison of midazolam and diazepam in doses of comparable potency during gastroscopy.

abstract：:Many indices are used to quantify pulmonary oxygen transfer. Indices that use only measurements from arterial blood and inspired gas assume a constant C(a-v)O2. Though variations in C(a-v)O2 are recognized, indices such as PaO2/FIO2 remain popular and are often considered the best measure of pulmonary oxygen transfer ...
