Evidence-based posts for clinicians and students covering ABG and VBG interpretation, breathwork, COPD, oxygenation, ventilation, and respiratory education.
Use the blog to go deeper on the same topics covered in PulmTools calculators and simulators, with step-by-step clinical explanations, student-friendly breakdowns, and practical bedside context.
Learn how to use a VBG calculator to interpret pH, PvCO₂, and HCO₃⁻. Includes venous blood gas analysis, compensation patterns, and when to use VBG vs ABG.
Practice VBG interpretation with realistic venous blood gas cases, interactive simulation, and step-by-step analysis. Improve acid-base recognition, compensation, and clinical reasoning using VBG practice questions.
Learn how to interpret venous blood gases step-by-step, including normal values, acid-base interpretation, clinical use cases, and when ABG is required.
Clinical scenarios, correlation caveats, and practical guidance for sampling strategy.
