Gaslighting is the attempt of one person to overwrite another personâs reality. Thereâs a good chance that you now know more about gaslighting than most therapists. And that is really unfortunate, because if you have experienced gaslighting, itâs going to be really hard to untangle it yourself. Unfortunately, you may have to, and I want to tell you that you are not alone.
The component of the arterial blood gas used to evaluate this is the PaO 2. Remember that the normal blood PaO 2 value is 80-100 mm Hg. Oxyhemoglobin Dissociation Curve The oxyhemoglobin dissociation curve is a tool used to show the relationship between oxygen saturation and the PaO 2.
By calculating the amount of light absorption, the device can measure how saturated the hemoglobin is with oxygen molecules, or O2 sat. Normally, the oxygen saturation of the blood is around 98 to 100 percent. Arterial blood gas study â In this procedure, blood is drawn out of an artery, usually in the wrist, using a needle and syringe. The blood is then sent through an analyzer to measure the amount of oxygen gas dissolved in the blood.
