PCO2 (or PaCO2) is the partial pressure of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the patient's arterial blood in mmol/L.
It is an element of the Arterial blood gas (APACHE).
Collection instructions
There are special collection instructions for Arterial blood gas (APACHE), refer there for further info.

APACHE Score
This value is used to generate the APACHE Score.
Collecting Apache physiological variables
There are some specific rules to follow in choosing which one of several lab results to collect.
See APACHE physiological variable collection for details.
Cross Chcks
Rules described in APACHE_physiological_variable_collection#Exceptionally_high_or_low_values are implemented by Check APACHE physiological variable high low.
