Prognostic Value of Arterial Blood Gases in Predicting ICU Mortality in Patients Under General Anesthesia
Keywords:
arterial blood gas, intra-operative prognostication, ICU mortalityAbstract
Arterial blood gas parameters during general anesthesia possess prospective value in forecastingintensive care unit mortality. This experimental investigation evaluated the prognostic significance of intra-operative arterial blood gases—specifically pH, PaO₂, PaCO₂, bicarbonate, base excess,and lactate—in adult patients undergoing
