ABSTRACT
Arterial blood gas (ABG) analysis is one of the most basic tests of
pulmonary function, performed routinely in hospitals throughout the
world. The proper application of the concepts of acid base imbalance
will help the health care provider not only to follow the progress of
the patient but also to evaluate the effectiveness of care being
provided. Accurate assessment of the relationship between abnormal
blood gas findings and a patient’s overall clinical condition is a
common challenge for critical care nurses. To meet this challenge,
nurses must understand the mechanisms underlying acid-base balance
and the common causes of acid-base imbalance. Considering this
major problem, a study was carried out with a purpose of identifying
the effectiveness of interpretive educative session in improving the
knowledge on interpretation regarding arterial blood gas values
among critical care nurses in a selected hospital at Gwalior.
