A PG’S GUIDE TO ABG
![Page 2: A pg’s guide to abg](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082920/554b5c03b4c905e9388b50b2/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
CAN YOU TRUST THE REPORT? Henderson-Hasselbalch shortcut:-
80 – Last two digits of pH = (24 X pCO2)/HCO3
Balanced equation = Correct ABG.
![Page 3: A pg’s guide to abg](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082920/554b5c03b4c905e9388b50b2/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
pA(lveolar)O2 SHENANIGANS
pAO2 = 150 – (pCO2 X 1.25) [@ room air]
If pa(rterial)O2 is low, calculate:-
pAO2 – paO2 = dO2 = >15 or <15.

dO2 REVELATIONS I
dO2 > 15
› COPD
› ILD
› Pneumonia
› Pulmonary edema
› Right to left shunt
![Page 5: A pg’s guide to abg](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082920/554b5c03b4c905e9388b50b2/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
dO2 REVELATIONS II
dO2 < 15
› Low FiO2
› CNS diseases
› High altitude
› Respiratory muscle disease
› Upper airway obstruction

PRIMARY DISORDER
Resp and Metab are on opposite sides of acidosis and alkalosis.
Easy :- Primary disorder tallies with pH.
![Page 7: A pg’s guide to abg](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082920/554b5c03b4c905e9388b50b2/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
(Resp + Metab) acidosis/alkalosis.
Calculate (Δ Value/Normal value) for pCO2 and HCO3.
Larger value is the primary.

JUMPING THE ANION GAP
Always calculated for metabolic acidosis.
AG = Na – (Cl + HCO3) = <10 normally.
High AG ≥ 10
ΔAG = Excess anions = AG – 10 (Anions
neutralized by HCO3)
Original HCO3 = ΔAG + HCO3
![Page 10: A pg’s guide to abg](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082920/554b5c03b4c905e9388b50b2/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
ΔAG REVELATIONS
ΔAG = ΔHCO3; All is well.
ΔAG > ΔHCO3 = HAG Met Acid + Meta Alk.
ΔAG < ΔHCO3 = HAG Met Acid + NAG Met Acid.
![Page 11: A pg’s guide to abg](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082920/554b5c03b4c905e9388b50b2/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
NAGMA – SO WHAT?
Calculate Urine AG = (Na + K) – Cl
Normal UAG = 0 ≈ GI loss (diarrhoea)
UAG > 0 ≈ Urinary loss (RTA)
![Page 12: A pg’s guide to abg](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082920/554b5c03b4c905e9388b50b2/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
APPENDIX
High RBS needs corrected Na.
Corrected Na = Na + [(RBS-100)/100] X 1.4.

HCO3 THERAPY
pH < 7.2 and HCO3 < 5 – 10 mEq/l
Inadequate ventilatory compensation
Elderly on β-blockers in severe acidosis with compromised cardiac function
Concurrent severe AG and NAGMA
Severe acidosis with renal failure/intoxication
![Page 14: A pg’s guide to abg](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082920/554b5c03b4c905e9388b50b2/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
HOW MUCH HCO3
HCO3 deficit = (ideal – actual) X 0.5 X lean body wt.

NOW GO AND BREAK THAT CRYPTIC ABG!
