| The book of data collection guidelines did have the instruction to choose the worst PH independent of the ABG selected for worst O2 (page 88 from Feb 11, 2004)) unless I misinterpreted it. Regardless, it was usually the same ABG anyway but thank you for the clarification above which states that all results should come from the same ABG.--[[User:MWaschuk|MWaschuk]] 11:13, 16 March 2009 (CDT)

| *please refer to the WIKI for the most up-to-date collection guide information. If there is no information on the WIKI or a discrepancy between paper guide and WIKI, let me know and we can continue to work on it. Collector should no longer be using the paper guide since it starting to contain more and more out dated information. --[[User:TOstryzniuk|TOstryzniuk]] 13:52, 16 March 2009 (CDT)

Revision as of 07:42, 17 March 2009
All arterial blood gas (ABG) results (FIO2, PO2, CO2, & PH) should be obtained from the same specimen. Use the PH value from the worst ABG result you have selected for a patient during their first 24 hours in ICU.
- though there are different collection practices used when selecting the PH value, the original APACHE II user manual (version 1.0) is as above.
