The expression "0.03 x Pco2" refers to a calculation where 0.03 is multiplied by the partial pressure of carbon dioxide (Pco2), typically measured in millimeters of Mercury (mmHg). This multiplication is often used in physiological contexts to estimate the concentration of carbon dioxide dissolved in blood, as the solubility of CO2 in plasma is approximately 0.03 mL/dL/mmHg. The result gives an approximation of the amount of CO2 in the blood that is not bound to hemoglobin.
