Arterial blood gas ?'s

Had an appointment yesterday and I asked about the ABG that was done in the ER. They said my oxygen was 70% at the time. Is 70% good,bad, awful.
My O2 was only 85-87 according to the monitors if that matters at all. I'm a little clueless about <i>abg's</i> and how to interpret the results<img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif" border="0">.

The only thing I know about ABG is that it's terribly painful. Sorry! Maybe someone else on here will be able to fill you in.

Your O2 is down. They like it to be 95 or higher. Medicare pays for home O2 if it's 88 or lower. Did they send you home w/ O2?

ooooh painful. I have to freakin zone out when I used to get those.
From what I understand in a nutshell . ABG 's are tell how much oxygen is actually getting into your blood . It is just another tool for the docs to use. This question you have is a good one for your doctor too.
