Factors Affecting Arterial Blood Gases Analysis among Critically Ill Patients: A Suggested Nurses Performance Protocol

Ghada Kamal Ahmed;

Abstract


The ABGs analysis is used to measure the pH and the
partial pressures of O2 and CO2 in arterial blood. The
investigation is relatively easy to perform and yields
information that can guide the management of acute and
chronic illnesses. This information indicates a patient's
acid–base balance, the effectiveness of their gas exchange
and the state of their ventilator control. Interpretation of an
ABGs result should not be done without considering the
clinical findings. The results change as the body
compensates for the underlying problem. Factors relating to
sampling technique, specimen processing and environment
may also influence the results.
Aim of the study:
This study aims to assess factors affecting arterial blood
