Arterial blood gas determinations (ABGs) play an important role in diagnosing derangements in acid-base balance, oxygenation, and ventilation. Frequent assessment is necessary in the management of critically ill patients. This article reviews the technologic evolution of modern blood gas analysis and the clinical application of monitoring hydrogen ion ...

In the previous chapters, we covered the important aspects of acid-base disorders. In the final chapter, we will discuss the major causes of hypoxia, namely, ventilation/perfusion mismatch, blood shunt, hypoventilation, and diffusion impairment. We will also highlight the important points on the oxyhemoglobin dissociation curve and their clinical ...

Arterial Blood Gas Interpretation
2023Abstract The arterial blood gas (ABG) provides information about a patient’s pH, oxygenation, and ventilation and can indicate whether an acid-base disorder is primarily metabolic, respiratory, or mixed. The four basic categories of acid-base disorders are respiratory acidosis, respiratory alkalosis, metabolic acidosis, and metabolic ...

Interpreting arterial blood gas results
BMJ, 2013#### Learning points You have been called to see a 69 year old man on a surgical ward because he has become drowsy and short of breath. He had a large bowel resection the previous day, has a background of type 2 diabetes, and is a current smoker. On examination his arterial blood pressure is 104/65 mm Hg, his heart rate 132 beats/min and irregular ...

Arterial-Blood Gas Tension in Asthma
New England Journal of Medicine, 1968Abstract Arterial oxygen and carbon dioxide tensions, pH and forced expiratory volumes were measured in 101 asthmatic patients during acute attacks of bronchospasm. Hypoxemia was observed in 91 subjects. The cause of the depressed oxygen tensions was found to be an alteration in ventilation-perfusion ratios.

Nursing Standard, 2004
With increasing use of arterial blood gas analysis in various ward and other hospital settings to aid medical diagnosis and management, nurses who can interpret results are often able to initiate earlier interventions and understand the reasons for medical interventions. This article enables nurses to interpret such results.

Arterial Blood Gas Interpretation
2009Acidosis is a disturbance that lowers the extracellular fluid pH. Alkalosis is a disturbance that raises the extracellular fluid pH. Acidemia is a reduction of the final extracellular fluid pH. Accordingly an acidemia may result from a combination of different types of acidosis or a combination of acidosis and alkalosis.

Arterial blood gas (ABG) analysis plays a pivotal role in the management of critically ill patients. Although no randomized controlled study has ever been performed evaluating the benefit of ABG analysis in the ICU, it is likely that this technology stands alone as that diagnostic test which has had the greatest impact on the management of critically ...
