AB Arterial  blood  gas  (ABG)  sampling  is  an  essential  component  of  the  care  of  many  Emergency  Department  patients.  It  provides  key  information  regarding  a  patient's  oxygenation  and  acid-base  status.  Arterial  cannulation  allows  for  continuous  and  accurate  blood  pressure  monitoring  and  frequent  blood  gas  sampling  in  the  care  of  the  critically  ill  patient.
