-*An ABG result is preferred, but if '''no''' ABG available during the first 24 hours in ICU then select the worst '''[[serum CO2]]'''
-Select the '''worst deviation from normal''' Arterial Blood Gases (ABG) in the first 24 hours of ICU admission as outlined on the [[APACHE Scoring table]]. '''Do not use venous gases.'''
-IF [[FiO2]] ≤ 49% - Base the selection of the '''worst''' ABG on the '''worst''' [[PO2]].
-IF [[FiO2]] ≥ 50% - Base the selection of the '''worst''' ABG on the '''worst''' [[AaDO2]].
