	Wikinfo \| Blood
		Blood is a liquid found in all higher animals whose main function is to supply the tissues with nutrients and oxygen and to remove waste products.
		Human blood is a liquid tissue; its major function is to transport oxygen necessary to life throughout the body.
		Blood also transports metabolic waste products, drugs and other foreign chemicals to the liver to be degraded and to the kidney to be excreted in urine.

	Blood gas monitor
		A blood gas monitor is a medical device that measures the amount of a dissolved gas in a patient's blood.
		The monitor value bounces in time to the heart beat because the blood vessels expand and contract with the heartbeat.
		Blood oxygen monitors are of critical importance in emergency medicine and are also very useful for patients with respiratory or cardiac problems.

	Blood Gas Text
		There are four good reasons for obtaining blood gases: 1) to assess the oxygenation capacity of the lungs for diagnostic reasons, 2) to assess the oxygen pressure in the blood for therapeutic reasons, 3) to assess respiratory adequacy, and 4) to assess acid-base status.
		And of course, blood gases are used to monitor the therapy of acidosis in the unstable patient.
		Blood gases are drawn from an artery with a small needle attached to a syringe.

	Blood Gases: The Test
		Blood gas measurements are used to evaluate your oxygenation and acid/base status.
		Blood gas measurements may be ordered if you are known to have a respiratory, metabolic, or kidney disease and are experiencing respiratory distress to evaluate your oxygenation and acid/base balance.
		A pH imbalance, blood that is either too acidic (state of acidosis) or alkaline (state of alkalosis) will be primarily due to a condition or disease that affects either respiration (breathing, your lungs) or your metabolic processes.

	Critical Care \| Full text \| Equipment review: Continuous assessment of arterial blood gases
		Because clinical decisions need to be made on the basis of trends in blood gases as well as with the rapid detection of an acute event [6,7], continuous non-invasive monitoring techniques, such as pulse-oximetry and continuous capnography, have been developed.
		The light is re-emitted at a lower intensity and the decrease in fluorescence is proportional to the concentration of analyte in the dye [13,14].
		Aberrant blood gas values, obtained particularly in cases of hypotension or vascular construction were attributed to the `wall-stress effect' on the sensing element [15,16].

	Patient Monitoring Systems
		Patient monitoring systems consist of equipment, devices and supplies that measure, display and record human physiological characteristics, including blood pressure, body temperature, heart activity, levels of various bodily substances (e.g., blood gases, cholesterol, glucose, etc.), pulse rate, respiration rate and other health-related criteria.
		Among the specific products analyzed in the study are multi-, dual- and single-parameter monitors that function either as independent, stand-alone units or components of integrated patient management networks.
		Patient monitoring systems measure physiological characteristics either continuously or at regular intervals over time and thereby differ from diagnostic instruments that detect existing medical conditions through single testing procedures.
