Sixty essentially healthy subjects were examined manometrically with blood withdrawn from the coronary sinus, pulmonary artery, aorta, veins of the right kidney and the right liver lobe. Together with the traditional parameters of the gas contents and gradients of plasma, it is proposed to use tests measuring additive O2 and CO2 parameters. It has been demonstrated that the above organs can be discriminated using tests that are additive with respect to the gas pressure. It is emphasized that the tests proposed here, when used in addition to the traditional ones, allow identification of the gas and non-gas parameters of homeostasis as a single system of tests to assess the human body function.
