In this episode, we break down how to approach acute hypoxemic respiratory failure at the bedside. You’ll learn step-by-step interpretation of arterial blood gases (ABG), venous blood gases (VBG), alveolar-arterial (Aa) gradient, and using the chest x-ray and ABG to diagnose the cause. We’ll cover the physiology, practical interpretation pearls, and common pitfalls so you can confidently apply this knowledge in the ICU, ED, or wards.
