| All arterial blood gas results ([[FiO2]], [[PO2]], [[CO2]] & [[PH]]) should be obtain from the '''SAME SPECIMEN'''.[[User:TOstryzniuk|TOstryzniuk]] 20:57, 5 March 2009

| | |
| *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]].
