ABG Machine Test in Thane

ABG Machine is a device used to do the ABG test. The amounts of oxygen and carbon dioxide in your blood are measured by an arterial blood gas (ABG) test, which takes a blood sample from an artery in your body. The pH balance, sometimes referred to as the acid-base balance, of your blood is also examined during the test.

The ABG machine tests oxygen content, hemoglobin content, partial pressure of oxygen, pH, etc. The ABG test is used to evaluate conditions like severe sepsis, septic shock, hypovolemic shock, acute respiratory distress syndrome, renal tubular acidosis, etc.

Blood is typically drawn from an artery in your wrist, or arm, for arterial blood gas tests by a medical professional known as a respiratory therapist. The sample is then processed by the respiratory therapist or quickly sent to a lab where medical laboratory scientists process it.

Results from arterial blood gas (ABG) testing are frequently available reasonably quickly. Automated blood gas machines are commonly used by laboratory scientists and respiratory therapists and can produce results in 10 to 15 minutes.
