Arterial is a reference to the blood in the arteries, as opposed to blood in the veins.
Pre-ductal saturations in a newborn are measured in the right hand and is a measurement of the arterial blood oxygen saturation after the blood leaves the heart and before it reaches the ductus arteriosus in the aorta. This is the blood that is perfusing the brain.
cerebral oxygen saturation are weighted venous samples (70% venous, 30% arterial) Pulse oximeter values are based on arterial oxygen saturations.
Arterial PCO2 is the mean arterial pressure 20 to 26mmhg.
O2 sat on room air or arterial blood would be lower than normal. CO2 levels would be higher.
Arterial PCO2 is the mean arterial pressure 20 to 26mmhg.
It can mean Arterial Blood Gas.
PAD stands for peripheral arterial disease.P.A.D. means Peripheral Arterial Disease
Arterial pressure in an infant means the pressure of the blood circulating on the arteries. This is a result of vascular resistance and cardiac output.
yes
Arterial Blood Gas

O2 is the chemical symbol for oxygen. if something has O2 in it it has 2 oxygen molecules=)
