Acid-Base - PowerPoint/1 Flashcards
systemic increase in H+ concentration or decrease in bicarbonate
acidosis
pH < 7.35 and CO2 >40
respiratory acidosis
loss of gastric juices is to
metabolic alkalosis
what is increased in acidosis
potassium levels
metabolic alkalosis
elevation of HCO- usually caused by an excessive loss of metabolic acids
respiratory acidosis
elevation of pCO2 as a result of ventilation depression
normal arterial blood pH value
7.35-7.45
initial stages of pulmonary emboli is to
respiratory alkalosis
respiratory alkalosis
depression of pCO2 as a result of alveolar hyperventilation
elevation of pCO2 as a result of ventilation depression
respiratory acidosis
acid-base balance is carefully regulated to
maintain a normal pH via multiple mechanisms
what have negative charges, and can serve as buffers for H+
protein (hgb)
protein buffering aka
hemoglobin
renal buffering
secretion of H+ in urine and reabsorption of HCO-
ABG readings pH CO2 HCO O2
- pH 7.35-7.45
- CO2 36-44
- HCO 22-26
- O2 >70
respiratory acidosis
pH and CO2
pH <7.35
CO2 >40
metabolic acidosis
pH and CO2
pH <7.35
CO2 <40
elevation of HCO- usually caused by an excessive loss of metabolic acids
metabolic alkalosis
acidosis
systemic increase in H+ concentration or decrease in bicarbonate
hyperkalemia is to
metabolic acidosis
arterial blood pH is obtained by
ABG sampling
overuse of antacids is to
metabolic alkalosis
