, Introduction
• Major function of pulmonary system (lungs and pulmonary
circulation) is to deliver oxygen to cells and remove carbon
dioxide from cells.

• If patient’s history and physical examination reveal evidence of
respiratory dysfunction, diagnostic test will help identify and
evaluate the dysfunction.

• Arterial Blood Gas (ABG) analysis is one of the first tests ordered
to assess respiratory status because it helps evaluate gas
exchange in the lungs.

• An ABG test can measure how well the person's lungs and
kidneys are working and how well the body is using energy.
