Design Prospective patient series. Setting A 32-bed cardiovascular neurosurgical trauma and medical-surgical intensive care unit in a single Canadian center. Patients We consecutively recruited 202 critically ill adults the majority of whom had recent cardiac or vascular surgery neurosurgery or trauma. Measurements The nurse obtained a single arterial blood sample within a few hours of the patient s admission to the intensive care unit. The Hb concentration was determined from each blood sample in a masked fashion using both a blood gas analyzer and a conventional laboratory coulter counter. Main results A total of 202 consecutive paired analyses were conducted. There was a highly significant correlation between the coulter counter and blood gas analyzer methods of Hb measurement r2 0.98 95 confidence interval CI 0.97-0.99 P 0.0001 . Using the method of Bland and Altman the overall mean difference in Hb concentration between the coulter counter and the blood gas analyzer was -4.3 g l 95 CI -11.0 to 2.4 . Of the 11 5.4 Hb measurements that extended beyond the upper and lower 95 CI 10 5.0 were within 3 g l of these confidence limits.
