Will abg results be affected by dialysis?
Yes, arterial blood gas (ABG) results can be affected by dialysis. During dialysis, the process can alter the patient's acid-base balance, electrolyte levels, and overall hemodynamics, which may reflect in the ABG results. For instance, bicarbonate levels can change due to the dialysis solution, potentially impacting pH and carbon dioxide levels. Therefore, it's important to consider the timing of ABG sampling in relation to dialysis sessions for accurate interpretation.
