HOW TO READ A BLOOD GAS
- 1st look at pH
- Normal, borderline normal or abnormal
- High: alkalosis, low: acidosis • Then PaCO2
- with pH (metabolic), against pH (respiratory)
- High: acidosis, low: alkalosis • Then HCO3
- High: alkalosis, low: acidosis
ANION GAP
ANION GAP
• Serum anion gap = Measured cations - Measured anions • Serum anion gap = (Na + K) - (Cl + HCO3)
• High anion gap > 12*
CF
Metabolic alkalosis
CHOLESTASIS, or NO?
Direct bilirubin is considered elevated if it is greater than
1.0 mg/dL (17.1 micromol/L) if the total serum bilirubin is
<5.0 mg/dL (85.5 micromol/L). • Or greater than 20 percent of the total serum bilirubin if the
total serum bilirubin is >5.0 mg/dL (85.5 micromol/L).
WBC IN CSF
Neonate
• Preterm less than 30
• Te r m l e s s t h a n 2 0
