ABG results provide several key pieces of information:
pH: Indicates the acidity or alkalinity of the blood. Normal range is 7.35-7.45. PaCO2: Partial pressure of carbon dioxide, reflecting the respiratory component. Normal range is 35-45 mmHg. PaO2: Partial pressure of oxygen, indicating the oxygenation status. Normal range is 80-100 mmHg. HCO3: Bicarbonate level, representing the metabolic component. Normal range is 22-26 mEq/L. SaO2: Oxygen saturation, showing the percentage of hemoglobin saturated with oxygen. Normal range is 95-100%.
