Arterial Blood Gas Test Price in Mexico — 2026 Comparison
Arterial blood gas analysis is a test performed on a blood sample drawn from an artery. It measures oxygen and carbon dioxide levels and the body's acid-base balance.
What is it used for? It provides valuable information about how the lungs and kidneys are functioning and about overall oxygenation status, useful in respiratory and metabolic diseases.
What to expect? The sample is usually drawn from the wrist; it can be somewhat more uncomfortable than a standard venous draw, and the result is obtained quickly.
Which specialist orders it? It's ordered and evaluated by the internist, the pulmonologist, and the nephrologist, depending on the reason. To correctly interpret the result, it's wise to review it with the physician who ordered it.

Before you book
- Every licensed doctor in Mexico holds a cédula profesional, a national licence number. It appears on our doctor profiles where we have it, and you can verify it yourself against the federal registry.
- Ask exactly what a quoted price covers. Consultation, imaging, anaesthesia, materials and follow-up visits are often quoted separately.
- Ask who handles follow-up once you are home, and what happens if something needs correcting. For treatment that spans several visits, agree the schedule before you travel.
El Doctor is a directory. We do not provide medical care, take bookings, or receive payment from the providers listed.
