34
Q

A patient with pH > 7.45 and CO2 < 35 has:

A

Respiratory Alkalosis

35
Q

A higher pH = more (acidic/alkalotic)

A

Acidic

36
Q

A lower pH = more (acidic/alkalotic)

A

Alkalotic

37
Q

A

kidneys

39
Q

PaCO2 over 45 is (acidic / alkalotic)

A

Acidic

40
Q

PaCO2 under 35 is (acidic / alkalotic)

A

Alkalotic

41
Q

HCO3 over 28 is (acidic / alkalotic)

A

Alkalootic

42
Q

HCO3 under 21 is (acidic / alkalotic)

43
Q

Is carbon dioxide an acid?

A

No, but the presence of carbon dioxide is directly proportional to the number of hydrogen ions being produced and hydrogen ions = acid!
