There was a highly significant correlation between the coulter counter and blood gas analyzer methods of Hb measurement ( r 2 = 0.98, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.97–0.99; P < 0.0001).
There was a highly significant correlation between the coulter counter and blood gas analyzer methods of Hb measurement ( r 2 = 0.98, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.97–0.99; P < 0.0001).
There was a weakly significant relationship between the mean Hb and the coulter counter – ABG Hb difference ( r 2 = 0.03, 95% CI = 0.001–0.10; P = 0.02), suggesting a minimal trend in the coulter counter – ABG Hb difference with a rising Hb concentration.
