Lecture On ABG Analysis & Glucose Tolerance Test (GTT) | Clinical Biochemistry | MBBS

In this practical biochemistry lecture, we conduct a comprehensive deep dive into Arterial Blood Gas (ABG) analysis and the Glucose Tolerance Test (GTT). This video is designed for medical students to help master the interpretation of acid-base disorders and the correct clinical procedures for diagnosing diabetes. Video Chapters: 00:00:00 - Introduction to Blood pH & Henderson-Hasselbalch Equation 00:04:20 - Understanding Renal vs. Respiratory Components 00:05:39 - Analyzing ABG Charts: Respiratory & Metabolic Acidosis/Alkalosis 00:11:06 - Practical Tips for Arterial Puncture & Sample Handling 00:14:44 - Compensation Modes (Uncompensated, Partially & Fully Compensated) 00:18:34 - Case Study: ABG Interpretation & Clinical Significance 00:29:13 - Diabetic Ketoacidosis (DKA) & Lab Diagnostic Criteria 00:33:36 - Glucose Tolerance Test (GTT): Types, Procedures & Patient Prep 00:39:54 - Pediatric vs. Adult GTT Dosage Guidelines Key Learning Objectives: Step-by-step breakdown of Respiratory/Metabolic Acidosis and Alkalosis. How to calculate the proper dosage for GTT based on body weight. Handling clinical samples for accurate diagnostic results. Distinguishing between DKA and Starvation Ketosis. #Biochemistry #ABGAnalysis #GTT #MedicalEducation #MBBS #ClinicalBiochemistry #MedicalStudents #SantiniketanMedicalCollege SANTINIKETAN MEDICAL COLLEGE & HOSPITAL Real Classroom Demonstration/Lecture On: BIOCHEMISTRY by Prof. (Dr.) Sandip Ghosh MBBS Batch: (2025-26) Conducted on: 08-07-2026
