A newborn on a ventilator may be due to multiple issues. Looking at blood gas and explaining will be not possible. Please consider tele- consultation for a second opinion.

All these blood gas are one time and real time parameters. The treating doctor has to correlate it clinically. But baby requires blood transfusion.
