Which of the following is NOT a measurement on an arterial blood gas (ABG) analysis?
Which of the following is NOT a measurement on an arterial blood gas (ABG) analysis?
Tap to reveal answer
Arterial blood gas (ABG) analysis includes five measurements: pH, arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2), bicarbonate ion (HCO3-), arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2), and base excess (BE). Fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) is not apart of an ABG analysis.
