ABG

Question 1

Ph

Answer 1

7:35 - 7.45

Question 2

CO2

Answer 2

35-45

Question 3

HCO3

Answer 3

22-26

Question 4

PaO2

Answer 4

80-100

Question 5

SaO2

Answer 5

> 95%

Question 6

Minute volume =

Answer 6

Tidal volume (vt) x respiratory rate (F)

Question 7

PO2

Answer 7

40,50,60
70%, 80%,90%

Question 8

Respiratory or acidotic

Answer 8

If CO2 follows follows ph = respiratory

If HCO3 follows ph = metabolic

Question 9

Partially compensated

Answer 9

If the ph is outside of normal values and both respatory and metabolic are outside of normal values

Question 10

Fully compensated

Answer 10

Ph inside normal values and both respiratory and metabolic are outside normal

Question 11

Critical ABG for intubation

Answer 11

Ph<7.2
PCo2= 55
PO2< 60

Question 12

Ph and ETCO2 relationship

Answer 12

For every 10 change in ETCO2 = ph .08 in opposite direction

Question 13

Ph and HCO3 relationship

Answer 13

For every .15 change in ph = HCO3 to change 10 in same direction

Question 14

Ph and potassium relationship

Answer 14

For every .10 change in ph = .6 change of K in opposite direction

Question 15

CO2 and K relationship

Answer 15

For every .10 change in CO2 = K will change .5 in same direction
