[@anjulama4672]

Thank you for this video 🙏🏻could you do video on postural drainage position too?

[@traegarcia7768]

Being a student, it would be nice for you to put the normal ranges for everything in an abg. I know them already but for other people that do not know or need a reminder. KNOW your NORMALS!

[@mhairiboyd7712]

Great tutorial Joe. In Scotland, that patient would also be out playing bingo! Love it. Thank you as always, for putting theory into practical context.

[@wendyproffitt47]

How do you get a doctor to understand your compensated blood gas? I had a patient last night they wanted NIV and then potentially intubation with a fully compensated blood gas. It was so frustrating and they caused her more anxiety because of all of that.

[@Kikirespiratory]

Could you please do videos on PSV fatigue wean, and complete liberation from the vent, we do like to learned more about the realist wean process, in addition, I had a doctor that went from RR 27bpm, RR to 14BPM, a huge changed, the rationale was a concerned about alkaline abg results, can damage the brain.. plus no requested an abg after huge jump changed.

[@yassersaleh6431]

Thank you so much for the video can you do video about HFNC because after covid more doctors request to put patients on it

[@raniafazal8746]

Joe can you pls make a video on metabolic acidosis.... like in DKA and lactic acidosis

[@asnfatpanda]

Can you explain Venus blood gas and how only PH and Co2 is the true value in the future?

[@cassiel6132]

[@nhungngo6445]

Hi coach. Can you help me to know how to distinguish if I draw ABG or VBG (besides look at the color? Any hint so that I know how to figure our if it was arterial or venous blood? Thanks.

[@adolfosciartilli5119]

Sorry, pH 7.22, PCO2 58 and HCO3- 24 clashes with Henderson-Hasselbalch equation.

[@RespiratoryCoach]

You're 100% correct. I appreciate you watching and taking the time to comment! GO BE GREAT!

[@papeshpathare5392]

what if co2 =66 high and hco3 - =16 low , ph is 7.1, what is the solution in this case?
