description Arterial blood gas (ABG) is an essential point-of-care test to identify the pH, metabolic, and respiratory status of critically ill patients. In addition, it provides useful information about co-oximetry, lactate, electrolytes, and other parameters. Studies show that it is widely prescribed but the impact of ABG result on clinical care is limited. Protocols addressing effective utilization of ABG can address and help in minimizing cost and complications. How to cite this article: Pande RK.
