Interpretation of Arterial Blood Gases (ABGs) Interpreting an arterial blood gas (ABG) is a crucial skill for physicians, nurses, respiratory therapists, and other health care personnel ABG interpretation is especially important in critically ill patients
Arterial Blood Gas (ABG) Analysis and Pulse Oximetry The amount of oxygen in the blood can be monitored without taking a blood sample by using a sensor placed on a finger or an earlobe—a procedure called pulse oximetry However, when a doctor also needs a carbon dioxide or blood acidity measurement (for example, in certain people who are seriously ill), an arterial or venous blood gas measurement is usually needed Doctors may do pulse
Arterial blood gas test - Wikipedia An ABG test measures the blood gas tension values of the arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2), and the arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2), and the blood's pH In addition, the arterial oxygen saturation (SaO2) can be determined Such information is vital when caring for patients with critical illnesses or respiratory disease
