ABG Test
An arterial blood gases (ABG) test is a blood test that measures blood pH, and levels of oxygen (O2) and carbon dioxide (CO2) from an artery.
The ABG sample is taken from an artery, not a vein. ABG sampling is usually performed on the radial artery.
Normal ABG Value;
PaCO2;35-45mmHg
PaO2; 75 to 100mmHg
HCO3-;22-26mmEq/l
PH; 7.35-7.45
Oxygen saturation; 95-100%
