Arterial blood gas 87.
The researchers reported, "The LNOP Blue Sensor indicated significantly higher correlation to
arterial blood gas in comparison to other two sensors studied.
This review is intended to help you perform an
arterial blood gas draw in complete safety and efficiency no matter what the circumstances and conditions.
Dependent areas should be avoided as sites for pulse oximetry recording and there should be a low threshold for confirmation of low pulse oximetry readings with
arterial blood gas analysis.
Several studies have convincingly shown that iatrogenic blood loss due to lab testing, including
arterial blood gas sampling, can result in increased morbidity due to stress on the cardiovascular and respiratory system and the need for allogeneic blood transfusion.
From an
arterial blood gas standpoint, their PaO2 is either near the lower limit of normal or just below 80 mm Hg in the mild hypoxemic range.
Intraoperatively the patient's
arterial blood gas was analysed every half hour to ensure adequacy of oxygenation.
This comprehensive 310-page report from Medtech Insight includes analyses of technologies, products, current and forecast markets, competitors, and opportunities in anesthesia equipment and monitoring; adult, pediatric, neonatal, transport, and noninvasive ventilators; laboratory blood gas analyzers, co-oximeters,
arterial blood gas sampling, point-of-care analyzers, in vivo and ex vivo blood gas monitoring, oximeters, and capnography/end-tidal carbon dioxide monitors; spirometry, pulmonary function and exercise testing products; and accessories such as incentive spirometry, peak-flow meters, ventilator circuits, aerosol administration, manual resuscitators, masks, and laryngeal mask airway products.

Arterial lines are typically placed in intensive-care units to monitor patients' blood pressure and assess their
arterial blood gas levels.
While point-of-care testing is the road to speedy results for many institutions, our hospital lab used the total quality management (TQM) process to significantly improve
arterial blood gas turnaround time to the intensive coronary care units (ICCU), thereby keeping the work in the central lab.
It also includes a dual source corporate options agreement for
arterial blood gas kits (ABG's), blood pressure cuffs and HCH's (humidifiers).
