English term or phrase: blood gas test
Definition from healthline:
A blood gas test measures the amount of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the blood. It may also be used to determine the pH of the blood, or how acidic it is. The test is commonly known as a blood gas analysis or arterial blood gas (ABG) test.

Example sentence(s):
  • The RapidPoint 500e Blood Gas Analyzer is an essential instrument supporting COVID-19 response efforts, where blood gas testing plays a critical role in managing infected patients and monitoring their respiratory distress. healthcare-in-europe.com
  • Doctors recommend for blood gas test if symptoms such as shortness of breath, difficulty in breathing, confusion, and nausea are witnessed. The pH value of blood, serum, or plasma is an indicator of the balance between the blood, renal (kidney), and lung (respiratory) systems, that is, depending on acidic or basic blood sample of the patients, the functioning of these vital organs of the body can be determined. Allied Market Research
  • On admission we performed arterial blood gas test on room air and found mild hypoxia and respiratory alkalosis with metabolic compensation Nature

Blodgasanalyse


Definition from Radiometer:
Blodgasanalyser giver oplysninger om en kritisk syg patients respirations- og metaboliske status via måling af pH, kuldioxid (pCO2) og ilt (pO2) sammen med andre vitale oplysninger som f.eks. elektrolytter, laktat og hæmoglobin.

Example sentence(s):
  • Arteriepunktur anvendes, når blodgasanalyse er indiceret. Analysen er central i diagnostik og behandling af den akut syge patient [1], idet der opnås informationer om både iltningsevne, syre-base-status, blodsukkerniveau, elektrolytforhold og hæmoglobinkoncentration. - Ugeskriftet.dk  
  • Baggrund: Blodgasanalyse er et vigtigt redskab i en akutmodtagelse. Flere vestlige lande som USA og Australien er idag begyndt at erstatte den traditionelle arterielle blodgasanalyse med en venøs. Dette kan nedsætte smerten vi udsætter patienterne for, og de risici en arteriepunktur medfører. - Ugeskriftet.dk  
  • I blodprøver fra arterier eller vener (arteriepunktur eller blodgasanalyse) - Wikipedia  

Explanation:
Man får flere hits ang. blodgasanalyse ved søgning på "arteriepunktur" - det lader til, at det er den procedure, der foretages i forbindelse med blodgasanalysen og at den dermed bruges mere eller mindre synonymt og oftere end "blodgasanalyse".
