    An arterial blood gas (ABG) test measures acidity and oxygen and carbon dioxide levels in arterial blood. It is used to check how well the lungs move oxygen into the blood and remove carbon dioxide. Normal pH is 7.35-7.45, normal PaCO2 is 35-45 mmHg, and normal bicarbonate is 22-26 mmol/L. Interpreting ABG results involves comparing values to these baselines to identify clinical deterioration.

    ABG INTERPRETATION

    BY: CADALIN, FREMELEN ROSE


    BSN-3A
    What is ABG?

    • An arterial blood gas (ABG) test measures the acidity (pH) and


    the levels of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the blood from an artery.
    This test is used to check how well your lungs are able to move
    oxygen into the blood and remove carbon dioxide from the blood.
    What is Normal?

    • When interpreting ABG results, it is essential to know what ABG values


    are considered ‘normal’. From this baseline, you can then begin to
    recognize significant variations in a patient’s results, which could indicate
    clinical deterioration.
    Normal ABG Levels

    pH Hydrogen 7.35 - 7.45

    PaCO2 Carbon dioxide 35 - 45 mmHg

    HCO3- Bicarbonate 22 - 26 mmol/L


    Resiratory acidosis
    Step 3: compensated or uncompensated
    THANK YOU AND GOD BLESS!!!
