2. ❑ It is the reflection of cardio respiratory status
❑ Integral part of NICU – Interpretation is
important for diagnosis, treatment & prognosis
❑ Neonate is vulnerable to acid base disorders due to
➢ Lesser blood buffer quantity
➢ Immature kidney
➢ Fragile cardiovascular status
❑ Among Preterm babies- above deficiencies are exaggerated
ABG -Introduction
3. ❑ The patients with Severe respiratory or metabolic
disorders.
❑ Clinical features of hypoxia or hypercarbia
❑ Shock
❑ Sepsis
❑ Decreased cardiac output
❑ Renal failure
❑ Ideally any baby on oxygen therapy
Indications for ABG
4. Precautions Before blood Sampling
❑ Wait for steady state
❑ Avoid air bubbles in syrige.
❑Transport sample in slush of ice, process within 30 min,
1-2hrs in ice.
❑ Always discard few drops of blood before testing.
❑ If Sample is processed late - blood cells will utilize
oxygen & this will lower pO2 & raise pCO2 levels.
5. Changes in ABG every 10 min in vitro
If Delay in processing - Blood sample should
be stored at 4 ° c
6. precaution while Collection
❑ Air bubble in sample – will shift pO2 values towards 150
and pCO2 falls precipitously
❑ Use least heparin ( <0.1 ml / ml of blood ).
❑ Use low strength heparin ( 1000 u / ml).
❑ Carefully mix the blood after sampling.
❑ Excess heparin in sample - results in falsely low values of
pCO2 and base excess & lowers pH.
7. Type of blood sample
❑ Arterial
❑Capillary – arterialized
❑ Venous
8. Site of Collection
Arterial Puncture
❑Umbilical
❑Radial, Posterior Tibial, Ulnar
❑Avoid - Brachial, Femoral, Supf. Temporal

10. ALLEN’S TEST:-
• Step 1: tight fist x 20 sec
• Step 2: Occlude radial and ulnar arteries
• Step 3: Open hand and look for blanching
• Step 4: release ulnar artery and look for capillary refill (5-7 sec)
11. Technique of Arterial puncture
ALLEN’S TEST
• Position wrist
• Prep skin
• Insert needle ~45 degrees,
bevel up
• Apply pressure x 5min
post procedure
12. Collection of capillary blood
ALLEN’S TEST
Capillary - arterialized
❑Pre-warmed heel, avoid squeezing.
❑Rotate in palm & seal, ensure no
air bubble.
❑Good for pH, pCO2 when peripheral perfusion
good.

❑Problems - ? Poor perfusion
13. Collection of Venous blood
ALLEN’S TEST
Venous blood gases
❑ Drawn against flow of blood to heart.
❑ No tourniquet to be applied.

7. 45
7.35
Above 7.45 = alkalosis
7.45 to 7.35 – normal range
Below 7.35 = acidosis
20. Component of ABG
ALLEN’S TEST
PaCO2
Partial pressure of CO2
Normal value: 35 to 45 mmHg
TCO2
Total Carbon dioxide
Sum of HCO3 & amount of dissolved CO2
For each mmHg pCO2, 0.03 ml of CO2 is dissolved
per 100 ml of plasma
Normal value: 23 to 27 mmol/L
21. Component of ABG
ALLEN’S TEST
➢HCO-3 : actual bicarbonate (Normal :22 to 26 mmol/L)
➢St HCO–3 : standard HCO3 (at pCO2of 40mmHg & at
370C) (as it changes with CO2 levels).
➢Total buffer base (BB): 48 to 49 mmol/L (constituted by Hb –
25%, bicarbonate - 50% and other s- 25% )
➢Base excess (BE)/ Base deficit :
Actual base (above/below) from total buffer base(BB)
Normal value: - 2 to + 2
22. Component of ABG
ALLEN’S TEST
PaO2: Partial pressure of O2
➢ Normal value :80 to 100 mmHg
➢ SaO2: Percentage Oxygen saturation of Hb
➢ O2CT: Sum of oxygen bound to Hb & oxygen dissolved in
plasma.
1. For each mmHg of Po2, 0.003 ml of oxygen is dissolved per
100 ml of plasma
2. Each gram of Hb binds to 1.34ml of oxygen
23. pH
ALLEN’S TEST
Normal pH: 7.35 – 7.45 (Narrow Range)
The precise control of pH necessary for:
❑Cellular functions
❑Enzymatic reactions
❑Protein conformation
❑CNS function
24. The Regulation of the pH of the Body
ALLEN’S TEST
For optimal functioning of organism, pH should be
maintained near 7.4; by buffers.
❑Buffer = Mixture of weak acids + their salts
or weak bases + their salts
❑Buffers : Chemical buffers
Respiratory buffers
Kidneys
25. The Regulation of the pH of the Body
ALLEN’S TEST
Chemical buffers
➢Bicarbonate – Carbonic acid buffer
➢Phosphate buffer
➢Protein buffer
➢Hemoglobin buffer
Respiratory buffers: Regulated by sensors located in
CNS, Carotid body & aortic arch.
Kidneys:
➢Reabsorption of Bicarbonate
➢Acidification of buffer salt (Phosphate)
➢Excretion of Ammonia
26. Acid base physiology & Components of ABG
ALLEN’S TEST
pH
Normal pH: 7.35-7.45
CO2 + H2O <--> H2CO3 <--> HCO3
- + H+
ph = 6.10 + log ([HCO3] / [0.03 x PCO2])
Negative logarithm of H+ ion concentration
pH Inversely related to H+ ion concentration
Change of pH by 1 = 10 fold change in H+ ion concentration

33. RESPIRATORY ACIDOSIS
ALLEN’S TEST
A retention of CO2 generally
caused by respiratory problems,
hypoventilation
Pulmonary Causes
-CNS Depression
-Respiratory muscle
-Tube block / dislodgement
-Opening of PDA
-Pulm interstitial edema
-Pulmonary air leak
-Collapse / consolidation
38. Respiratory Acidosis
Acute Respiratory Acidosis
– Acute - little kidney involvement.
Buffering via titration via Hb for example
• pH by 0.08 for 10mmHg in CO2
Chronic Respiratory Acidosis
– Chronic - Renal compensation via synthesis and
retention of HCO3
– Cl to balance charges hypochloremia
• pH by 0.03 for 10mmHg in CO2
46. • Patients may have two or more acid-base disorders
at one time
• Delta Gap
Delta HCO3 = HCO3 + Change in anion gap
>24 = metabolic alkalosis
Mixed Acid-Base Disorders
47. Urinary classification of metabolic alkalosis
• Why is this useful?
– If urinary chloride is low,
• The alkalosis is likely due to volume depletion and/or gastric
losses
• will respond to saline infusion
- If urinary chloride is high,
- Likely the alkalosis is due to hypokalemia or aldosterone
excess
- Will not respond to saline infusion
'Acid-base pHysiology' by Kerry Brandis
49. Body’s physiologic response to Primary disorder
in order to bring pH towards NORMAL limit
✓Full compensation
✓Partial compensation
✓Uncompensated
BUT compensation never overshoots,
If a overshoot pH is there,
Take it granted it is a MIXED disorder
pH HCO3 CO2
7.37 15 20
7.25 15 30
7.20 15 40
How Compensation Occurs ?
55. Assessment of Oxygenation AaDO2
ALLEN’S TEST
AaDO2 = PAO2 – PaO2
PAO2 = PB - PH20 x FiO2 - PaCO2 / 0.8
PAO2 = 760 - 47 x 0.21 – 40/0.8 = 90
If paO2 = 80,
pAO2 - paO2 = 10 Normal : 10 – 25
>250 Ventilation for respiratory failure
>600 on 100 % FiO2 for 12 hrs ECMO
56. Assessment of Oxygenation AaDO2
ALLEN’S TEST
Respiratory index
RI = AaDO2 / PaO2
>1 Need for O2
> 1.8 Ventilation
> 2 Weaning contraindicated
> 5 Refractory hypoxemia
57. Assessment of Oxygenation AaDO2
ALLEN’S TEST
a / A Ratio
= PaO2 / PAO2
Normal – 0.7-0.9
< 0.6 Need for O2 therapy
< 0.22 Need for surfactant
< 0.15 Severe hypoxemia
58. Assessment of Oxygenation AaDO2
ALLEN’S TEST
Oxygenation Index
OI = MAP x FiO2 X 100 /post ductal PaO2
OI > 15 – severe respiratory compromise
> 30-35 – failure for present mode of ventilation
> 40 – need for ECMO , 80 % mortality
60. ✓…To calculate A-a gradient….
Is the baby hypoxic?
Type and severity of Hypoxia.
✓ …Relationship of PaO2 and FiO2?
FiO2 X 5 = Expected PaO2
✓…Whether PaO2 is appropriate for the given FiO2?
✓…Is the O2 content (CaO2) enough to prevent
hypoxia?
63. It is essential to have
ELECTROLYTES
for
crucial interpretation of ABG.
esp. Na, Cl, K
We always correlate PaO2 with
FiO2
BUT………………………….
One should never forget to
correlate with PaCO2
