ABG Pro DDx

Free on Android and iPhone · ads can be removed

ABG Pro DDx is a free arterial blood gas (ABG) interpretation app for Android and iPhone. It works out every acid-base disorder in a blood gas, including triple acid-base problems, and gives a differential diagnosis for each one. It was written by a physician for medical students, nurses and doctors learning acid-base interpretation.

What it interprets

  • Arterial blood gases, including mixed and triple acid-base disorders.
  • The osmolar gap, alongside the blood gas.
  • A differential diagnosis for each disorder it finds, so you can see what to think about next.
  • An acute or chronic setting, and conventional or SI units.

What it calculates

  • Anion gap, corrected for albumin (albumin g/dL × 2.5 = normal anion gap).
  • Osmolar gap.
  • Delta-delta.
  • Expected pCO2 and expected bicarbonate (compensation).
  • A-a gradient.

Settings you control

  • Your own normal ranges for pCO2 and bicarbonate.
  • Interpret without sodium and chloride when you don't have them.
  • The app remembers these options after it closes.

How it was tested

The interpretation logic has been stress-tested against more than 100 triple acid-base ABG problems.
