Arterial Blood Gas (ABG) Interpretation - Example Problems 1-4 |  

You have literally helped me so much with all of your videos this semester! Thank you so much !!!!

Watching this before my last exam of nursing school and I finally fully understand!! Thank you

Thank you soooo much for this video Cathy! I am currently in Med Surg 1 and I am having trouble with ABGs. Now I understand fully/partial compensation and un-compensation. THANKS

You are the best at teaching this: not confused at all! Thank you so much for these videos, God bless you.

After all these years its the 1st am understanding compensated vs un compensated. God led me to you. Thank you

Thanks for the well elaborate explanation. Very simplified.

Thank you very much for this video. I had major problem understanding this concept in second year. Thank you for breaking it down so easy.

You really have a gift. Not all people can teach something so well that students understand it so quickly!! Thank you

God bless you ma'am

You made so easy! Thanks a million!!!!

This was very helpful. I’m so over ABGS 😂

Thank you this helps a lot ❤️

Thank you! I much prefer this over the tic tac toe method

wow you made me get this in just 4 of your videos....i was literally trying to figure this out for days!! thanks so much!!

Thank you so much!! I finally get how to assess for compensation!! 🙏🏼❣️🌺

Sincere thanks :) I'm so glad I found this and now I can ace my tests. Love from Indian-Ph med student

Thank you to this Nurse, wherever she is!!! Much love!

In 2:21 I grasp the concept. I came in with some knowledge. I memorize the ranges and flow chart to show what values lines up with acidosis vs alkalosis. I was stuck on the whole compensated part. Now I fully understand when to use compensated and uncompensated. 1 step closer to mastering my ABG quiz. 🎉🎉🎉🎉

Just wanted to share a silly trick my teacher used from a previous student when teaching us how to memorize ABG numbers. It sticks in my mind til this day 😂. The pH is 7.35 - 7.45 I am between ages 35 to 45. And I only date women ages 22 to 26.

Ma’am what should be the answer for this ? pH - 7.12 HCO3 - 36 mmol/litre pCO2 - 60 mm of Hg Should the answer be “Respiratory acidosis “ or “Respiratory acidosis with compensatory metabolic alkalosis” ?!

Thank you so much. God bless you. I understand this for the FIRST time ever. Need to solve more examples on my own now. Thanks a lot

I thought if the pH and Co2 are the same it would be metabolic alkalosis?

i’m literally gonna get a shirt with ur face on it jk haha unless.. 👀

Very helpful review, much appreciated!

Thank you 🙏😭😭😭

So helpful, thank you!!

You could have mentioned that you charge for the ABG material.

You are such a good teacher!! 😍

THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Cathy I have hypoxia, my VQ scan is normal, my echo is normal, my EKG shows SVT’s and I had an ablation in September. The pulmonologist prescribed CO I’m on 2 litters, and she wants an angiogram to rule out shunt, her NP wants me to get a bubble echo, ABG and last angiogram! I’m so confused what to do! My oxygen is low even while setting and using my oxygen, please help!!!!

Thank you for your videos they are great. Please if you have 4 different patients with each of those values which patients will you see first? Is it the first one? Where HCO3 is not trying to fixed the problem?

Thank you ma'am

Thank you

TYSM!

Perfect for Revision . Thank you 😊

What if HCO2 was 18 in question 2. What would it be?

Awesome :)

I'm almost finished with nursing school I wish I found this page sooner. I've been coming to this page for literally all nursing topics since the beginning of last year and it has been a life saver! My grades dramatically improved thank you so much for all you do. This was the best simplest explanation on the internet!

Only you could make me understand Compensation, partially and fully compensation. Thanks a lot
