  • PaO2/FiO2 Ratio Calculator (P/F Ratio) gives you a fast estimate using your inputs and updates instantly when you change any value.
  • Formula: P/F Ratio = PaO2 ÷ (FiO2 as a fraction)
  • Input definitions: • PaO2: the numeric pao2 used in the calculation • FiO2: the numeric fio2 used in the calculation
  • Manual method: write down each input, apply the formula step by step, then compare your manual result with the calculator output.
  • Enter values using the units shown next to each input field (e.g. kg, cm, years).
  • This calculator uses widely accepted health formulas and returns screening estimates only. It does not replace a diagnosis from a qualified healthcare professional.
  • Compare your result with published reference ranges. Values outside the normal range warrant a conversation with your doctor.
  • Practical tip: test a low, medium, and high scenario to understand sensitivity before making decisions.

Example Calculation

Inputs
  • PaO2: 90 mmHg
  • FiO2: 40 %

Suppose you enter: PaO2 = 90, FiO2 = 40. The calculator applies the formula (P/F Ratio = PaO2 ÷ (FiO2 as a fraction)) and shows all output values below. Change any input field to immediately see how the result changes.
