Oxygen and Carbon Dioxide Levels

ABG analysis assesses these levels, thereby indicating the amount of oxygen that is being effectively delivered and carbon dioxide cleared.

pH Measurement

It measures the blood pH to identify whether the patient has acidosis or alkalosis; therefore, this shows metabolic or respiratory problems respectively.

Bicarbonate Levels

It helps outline the metabolic component of the acid-base balance through measurement of bicarbonate levels in the patient.

Results Guiding Treatment Decisions

These results may guide doctors to make an adjustment to treatments such as ventilator settings or any drugs on what the patient needs.

Lactate Levels

The measurement of lactate will help in monitoring tissue hypoxia and diagnosing other pathologies such as sepsis or shock.

Immediate Results

The test is instant; thus, very effective in acute medical situations requiring rapid interventions.
