pH
An arterial blood gas (ABG) test measures the amount of oxygen and carbon dioxide (CO2) in a sample of your blood. The blood oxygen measurement shows how well your lungs move oxygen from the air into your blood when you breathe in. The carbon dioxide measurement shows how well your lungs remove carbon dioxide from your blood when you breathe out.
