Carbon Dioxide and Hemoglobin at Presentation with Hypertrophic Pyloric Stenosis—Are They Relevant? Cohort Study and Current Opinions
An increase in carbon dioxide cannot easily be attributed to a reduced transport function of carbon dioxide due to hemoglobin deficiency. Further investigation is needed to determine the extent to which low hemoglobin levels and increased pCO<sub>2</sub> interact with hemoconcentration to contribute to respiratory problems.
