ABGuru is the study tool for arterial blood gas (ABG) interpretation. Enter pH and pCO2 and get a complete acid-base analysis in seconds, automatically adapted to your training level. Built for medical students, residents, specialist physicians, and critical care nurses who want to deepen their understanding of ABG pathophysiology — on the ward, in the library, or before an exam. THREE LEARNING LEVELS Explanations automatically adapt to your profile: • Medical Student — core concepts, reference values, basic interpretive logic • Resident — pathophysiology, differential reasoning, clinical correlations • Specialist Physician — advanced technical detail, compensation formulas, practical implications WHAT THE APP CALCULATES • Acid-base disorder type (23 zones in the pH/BE plane, Siggaard-Andersen method) • Calculated Base Excess and HCO3- • Expected compensation with adequacy assessment • Anion gap and delta ratio • Alveolar-arterial gradient (A-a) • P/F ratio and ARDS severity (Berlin criteria) • Lactate analysis • Arterial oxygen content (CaO2) • Automatic correction for venous samples • Interactive Davenport diagram TEACHING CARDS Every parameter has an info button (i) that opens a card with explanation, reference ranges, and cited scientific sources — Siggaard-Andersen, Berend, Schlichtig, Emmett & Narins, and others. PRIVACY The app does not collect, transmit, or store any personal or health data. Everything stays on your device. IMPORTANT NOTICE ABGuru is an exclusively educational application.
