An Overview on P-Values "The widespread use of "statistical significance" (generally interpreted as "p <= 0.05") as a license for making a claim of a scientific finding (or implied truth) leads to considerable distortion of the scientific process"-Am Statistical ASSOC 2016 #PValues #BioStatistics #Interpretation

Arterial Blood Gas (ABG) Interpretation • AG/non-AG Metabolic Acidosis • AG Acidosis "Delta/Delta" • Metabolic Alkalosis • Respiratory Acidosis • Respiratory Alkalosis - Dr. Rishi Kumar @rishikumarmd #Arterial #BloodGas #ABG #Interpretation #diagnosis #acidbase #acidosis #alkalosis

Hypoxemia vs Hypoxia Hypoxemia - Partial pressure of arterial oxygen (PaO2) is below normal Hypoxia - Insufficient oxygen supply at the tissue level Hypoxemia without hypoxia - Increased O2 delivery to compensate for low PaO2 Hypoxia without hypoxemia - Tissues are unable to use O2 effectively. O2 delivery to tissues is impaired Jane Lock @kcolenaj #hypoxia #hypoxemia #differential #diagnosis #comparison #pulmonary
