  2. Blood gas tension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_gas_tension

    The most common gas tensions measured are oxygen tension (P x O 2), carbon dioxide tension (P x CO 2) and carbon monoxide tension (P x CO). [3] The subscript x in each symbol represents the source of the gas being measured: "a" meaning arterial, "A" being alveolar, "v" being venous, and "c" being capillary. [3] Blood gas tests (such as arterial ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_gas_test

    A blood gas test or blood gas analysis tests blood to measure blood gas tension values, it also measures blood pH, and the level and base excess of bicarbonate.The source of the blood is reflected in the name of each test; arterial blood gases come from arteries, venous blood gases come from veins and capillary blood gases come from capillaries.

    Oxygen tension of mixed venous blood: P (A-a) O 2: Alveolar-arterial oxygen tension difference. The term formerly used (A-a D O 2) is discouraged. P (a/A) O 2: Alveolar-arterial tension ratio; P a O 2:P A O 2 The term oxygen exchange index describes this ratio. C (a-v) O 2: Arteriovenous oxygen content difference: S a O 2: Oxygen saturation of ...

    The blood can also be drawn from an arterial catheter. An ABG test measures the blood gas tension values of the arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2), and the arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2), and the blood's pH. In addition, the arterial oxygen saturation (SaO2) can be determined. Such information is vital when caring ...

  7. Respiratory failure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Respiratory_failure

    Respiratory failure is classified as either Type 1 or Type 2, based on whether there is a high carbon dioxide level, and can be acute or chronic. In clinical trials, the definition of respiratory failure usually includes increased respiratory rate, abnormal blood gases (hypoxemia, hypercapnia, or both), and evidence of increased work of breathing.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PCO2

    Measurement of in the systemic circulation indicates the effectiveness of ventilation at the lungs' alveoli, given the diffusing capacity of the gas. It is a good indicator of respiratory function and the closely related factor of acid–base homeostasis , reflecting the amount of acid in the blood (without lactic acid).
