Its importance as a key tool in the work-up of acutely unwell patients rivals that of the ECG and the chest x-ray.

The first part explains the technique, the values obtained and common patterns of abnormalities, while the second part comprises a series of worked examples and case scenarios to allow the reader to put this system into practice.

    • A practical guide written for all those using this test and interpreting the results.
    • Utilises worked examples to allow the reader to gain confidence in interpreting ABGs and appreciate the usefulness of the test in a variety of different clinical settings.
    • Written in a simple style and presenting the concepts in a straightforward manner.
