==ABG for APACHE II==
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.'''
 
 
 
[[FiO2]] ≤ 49% - Base your selection of the '''worst''' ABG on the '''worst''' [[PO2]].
 
[[FiO2]] ≥ 50% - Base your selection of the '''worst''' ABG on the '''worst''' [[AaDO2]].
[[AaDO2]] Calculation:
[[AaDO2]] is the arterial-alveolar O<sub>2</sub> tension difference)
[[AaDO2]] = ([[FiO2]] X 713) - [[PO2]] - [[CO2]]
e.g. ([[FiO2]] 0.5 X 713) - [[PO2]] 85- [[CO2]] 40 = [[AaDO2]] 231.5
