Arterial blood gases are only done in the very sick children‚ who have been intubated/ventilated and have arterial lines in situ (usually in the theatre prior to transfer to the PICU in Newcastle. Here is a stepwise approach to blood gas analysis. STEP 1: [pic] STEP 2: Look at pCO2 [pic] STEP 3: Look at Bicarbonate & Base excess (BE) [pic] Base excess (BE): Base excess is the amount mmol/l of base that is needed to correct pH back to normal when pCO2 is corrected
