Arterial Blood Gas

Select the worst deviation from normal Arterial Blood Gases (ABG) as outlined on the APACHE II 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 O2 tension difference) AaDO2 = (Fi02 X 713) - PO2 - CO2 e.g. (FiO2 0.5 X 713) - PO2 85-CO2 40 = AaDO2 231.5

  • all arterial blood gas results (FiO2, PO2, CO2 & PH) should be obtain from the same specimen.TOstryzniuk 20:57, 5 March 2009 (CST)
