This document discusses an ABG analysis class presented to nursing students. The learning objectives were to define ABG analysis, explain the purpose of ABG analysis, describe terms related to acid-base analysis, and explain respiratory and metabolic acidosis and alkalosis. Key points covered include defining ABG analysis as measuring blood pH, oxygen, and carbon dioxide levels; purposes like aiding diagnosis and treatment; locations for blood draws; terms like acids, bases, and acidosis; and descriptions of conditions like respiratory acidosis and metabolic alkalosis.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

At the end of this lecturer, students should be able to:

• Define ABG analysis

• Enlist the purpose of ABG analysis

• Explain the terms related to acid and base analysis.

• Describe the respiratory and metabolic, acidosis

and alkalosis.
DEFINITION

Measurements of blood pH and of

arterial oxygen and carbondioxide tensions are


obtained when managing patients with respiratory
problems and in adjusting oxygen therapy as needed.
PURPOSE OF ABG ANALYSIS

• Aids in establishing a diagnosis


• Helps guide treatment plan
• Aids in ventilator management
• Improvement in acid/base management

• Acid/base status may alter electrolyte

levels critical to patient status/care.


WHERE TO PLACE-THE OPTION

• Arterial blood gas levels are obtained

through an arterial puncture at the

• radial,

• brachial,

• femoral artery

• through an indwelling arterial catheter


THE TERMS:
• ACIDS

Academia

Acidosis

• Respiratory : CO2

• Metabolic: HCO3
THE TERMS:
• BASES

• Alkalemia

– Alkalosis

• Respiratory: CO2

• Metabolic: HCO3
RESPIRATORY ACIDOSIS:
• ph, CO2, Ventilation

• Causes

– CNS depression

– Pleural disease

– COPD/ARDS

– Musculoskeletal disorders
RESPIRATORY ALKALOSIS:
• pH, CO2, Ventilation

•  CO2  HCO3 (Cl to balance charges


hyperchloremia)

• Causes

– Intracerebral hemorrhage

– Salicylate and Progesterone drug usage


Ct-- RESPIRATORY ALKALOSIS:
• Anxiety, lung compliance

• Cirrhosis of the liver


METABOLIC ACIDOSIS:
• PH, HCO3

Causes:

• diarrhea, lower intestinal fistulas, ureterostomies,


and use of diuretics; early renal insufficiency;
excessive administration of chloride; and the
Ct---METABOLIC ACIDOSIS:
• Administration of parenteral nutrition without
bicarbonate or bicarbonate-producing solutes (e.g.,
lactate).
SUMMARY
In this class we discussed the

• Define ABG analysis

• Describe the respiratory and metabolic, acidosis

and alkalosis.
Question
