Calculation of the alveolar-arterial (A-a) O 2 gradient (inspired P o 2 [arterial P o 2 5 4 arterial P co 2 ]) can help distinguish pulmonary from extrapulmonary disease; a normal gradient essentially excludes pulmonarydisorders.[msdmanuals.com]

However, 5 of 21 (23.8%) recordings that showed an absence of nocturnal hypoventilation at the chosen threshold showed hypercapnia on mABG.[hal-univ-bourgogne.archives-ouvertes.fr]
Significant arterial hypercapnia is unlikely to occur with an inspiratory pressure more negative than -30 cm H 2 O; however, arterial hypercapnia may be present with a vital capacity as high as 55% or as low as 20% of the predicted value [ 15, 16 ].[aneskey.com]
