    ABG PRACTICE Key

    Uploaded by

    Molly Baller
    This document provides ABG practice problems to determine if results indicate acidosis or alkalosis, and if it is respiratory or metabolic in origin. It also identifies if the condition is compensated, partially compensated, or non-compensated. Eight practice problems are provided with expected answers. Norms for pH, PaO2, PaCO2, SaO2, and HCO3 are listed to aid in analysis.

    ABG PRACTICE PROBLEMS

    NORMS: pH: 7.35-7.45


    PaO2: 80-100 mmHg
    SaO2: 95-100%
    PaCO2: 35-45 mmHg

    Partially Compensated, or Non Compensated.
