What Parameters are Measured in ABGs?

ABGs measure several critical parameters:
- pH: Indicates the acidity or alkalinity of the blood.
- PaO2: Partial pressure of oxygen.
- PaCO2: Partial pressure of carbon dioxide.
- HCO3: Bicarbonate level, reflecting the metabolic component.
- Base excess/deficit: Indicates the metabolic component of acid-base balance.
