Arterial Blood Gas Interpretation Calculator
Arterial Blood Gas Interpretation: a planned Super Calculator tool. Covers pH. Stub page: the tool, its formula and a worked example are not published yet.
Arterial Blood Gas Interpretation Calculator is a planned calculator in the health section of Super Calculator, covering clinical dosing and scores.
What this calculator will compute
Inputs: pH, PaCO2, bicarbonate, PaO2, sodium, chloride, albumin and FiO2.
Outputs: primary disorder, compensation adequacy, anion gap and delta ratio and A-a gradient.
Formula, recorded as scope and not yet verified against a primary source: Applies the Henderson-Hasselbalch relation and the standard compensation rules, including Winter’s formula for expected PaCO2 in metabolic acidosis, expected PaCO2 = 1.5 * bicarbonate + 8 plus or minus 2, plus the anion gap and delta gap for mixed disorders.
