Episode 29: The ABC's of ABG's


Listen Later

A, B, C, oh wait, ABG?

In this episode, Dr. Burriesci hosts Briana Drapp of PT Elevation and teaches the ABC’s of Arterial Blood Gases (ABG’s). Dr. Burriesci explains what PaO2, PaCO2, HCO3 and SaO2 means, why we should care and how to extrapolate the information of each of these numbers into real world, clinical information to benefit our patients. She breaks down the numbers into metabolic vs pulmonary and alkalosis vs acidosis by finding who the “problem child” is.

By the end of this episode, you’ll have interpreted multiple examples and have a better understanding of why this matters to you as a clinician. She gives you information in small bites rather than getting lost in the whole alphabet soup.
