The ROME method is a quick way to solve ABGs. ROME stands for R: respiratory, O: opposite, M: metabolic, E: equal

To apply ROME to ABG problems you want to remember the following: CO2 (carbon dioxide) elevated and pH low: respiratory acidosis, CO2 low and pH elevated: respiratory alkalosis; HCO3 (bicarbonate) low and pH low: metabolic acidosis, HCO3 elevated and pH elevated: metabolic alkalosis
