Arterial Blood Gases
Assesses pH, CO2, HCO3- (bicarbonate)
Arterial pH

Oxyhemoglobin Dissociation Curve
Displays oxygen’s affinity for hemaglobin
Partial Pressure PaO2
80 - 100 mmHg
Left Shift on Oxyhemoglobin Curve
increased affinity for oxygen
Causes: hypothermia, alkalosis, fetal blood
Right Shift on Oxyhemoglobin Curve
decreased affinity for oxygen
Causes: hyperthermia, acidosis, maternal blood
