Know More about BLOOD GAS ANALYSIS, ARTERIAL (ABG) WITH ELECTROLYTES
This test assesses lung and body function by monitoring oxygen levels, carbon dioxide levels, blood pH, and electrolytes like sodium and potassium. It quickly identifies breathing issues, acid-base disturbances, and urgent situations like diabetic emergencies, kidney failure, or poisoning. It can be convenient during emergent situations or in the ICU to allow doctors to make timely, accurate decisions for treatment.
Process
- Usually a small amount of blood will be drawn from the wrist with a tiny needle from an artery.
- The blood is inserted into a machine to be analyzed for gases and electrolytes in a matter of seconds.
When to Get Tested
You will often be tested for this if you have trouble with breathing, are unconscious, or have diagnoses like kidney disease, acute complications of diabetes, or poisoning. It's also used in situations where the doctor is managing the patient for treatment prior to, or after, initiating a procedure such as ventilation support or dialysis.
Sample Type
Usually an arterial blood sample will be taken, usually from the wrist.
Test Preparation
