Abstract

This text outlines a structured approach to diagnose and manage hypoxemia in dogs and cats using pulse oximetry and arterial blood gas (ABG) analysis. It details the main causes-low FiO2, hypoventilation, and venous admixture-and explains how tools like the A-a gradient, partial pressure of oxygen/FiO2 ratio, and respiratory-rate oxygenation index help assess severity and guide therapy. Stepwise ABG interpretation is emphasized to tailor oxygen support, from conventional methods to high-flow oxygen therapy or mechanical ventilation in severe cases. Continuous monitoring improves prognosis and informs escalation of care.

低氧血症的快速参考。

本文概述了一个结构化的方法来诊断和管理低氧血症的狗和猫使用脉搏血氧仪和动脉血气（ABG）分析。它详细说明了主要原因-低FiO2，低通气和静脉杂质-并解释了像A-a梯度，氧分压/FiO2比和呼吸速率氧合指数等工具如何帮助评估严重程度和指导治疗。强调逐步ABG解释以定制氧支持，从常规方法到高流量氧治疗或严重情况下的机械通气。持续监测可改善预后并为护理升级提供信息。
