This document contains a practice quiz on arterial blood gases (ABGs) consisting of 45 multiple choice and interpretation questions. The questions cover normal ABG values, acid-base disorders including respiratory and metabolic acidosis and alkalosis, and interpreting ABG results to determine the acid-base status and degree of compensation. Correct answers are provided for the interpretation questions to assess understanding of how to analyze ABG results.
