Purpose: To use the transcutaneous partial pressure of oxygen (TcO2) as an aid in the evaluation of potential amputation sites.			Citations with documentation. 20.01.01	Sriram & Svirbely 1997
data	enter
transcutaneous partial pressure of oxygen (TcpO2) in mm Hg over the anterior surface of calf where the amputation is planned		mm Hg
TcpO2 in mm Hg over the posterior surface of calf where the amputation is planned		mm Hg
Was the TcpO2 over the calf measured after oxygen inhalation? (Y or N)		:-):-):-)
TcpO2 in mm Hg over anterior calf after oxygen inhalation		mm Hg
TcpO2 in mm Hg over posterior calf after oxygen inhalation		mm Hg
TcpO2 in mm Hg over reference site on arm		mm Hg
calculate	results
data complete?	Yes
TcpO2 index for anterior calf	0.20
TcpO2 index for posterior calf	0.31
Is the amputation site likely to heal based on?:
• TcpO2?	No
• TcpO2 index?	No
• TcpO2 after oxygen inhalation?	possibly
