Q

What is the problem based on in Type II resp failure?

A

Ventilation
CO2 no longer being exchanged
Builds up

A

COPD
Obesity

Q

What is the difference between management of type i and II resp failure

A

Type I = O2 ‘Type II = controlled O2 + may need NIV

17
Q

pH and paCO2 levels for resp and metabolic acidosis, alkalosis

A
  • Respiratory acidosis
    • Low pH with high PaCO2
  • Metabolic acidosis
    • Low pH, low PaCO2
  • Respiratory alkalosis
    • High pH + normal or high PaCO2
  • Metabolic alkalosis
    • High pH, low PaCO2
18
Q

What does an ABG vs VBG tell you

A

Both = acid base status
Only ABGs tell you oxygenation and ventilation of a patient

19
Q

When do you perform an ABG?

A
  • New hypoxia
  • Monitoring acid base status eg in DKA
  • Overdose
  • Assessment repsonse to NIV
  • Assessment for need for Home O2
20
Q

Conditions with metabolic acid base disturbance

A
  • DKA
  • Overdose
  • Sepsis
  • Renal failure
21
Q

Conditions causing disturbed oxygenation/gas exchange?

A
  • Asthma
  • COPD
  • Pneumonia
  • Ventilated patients
22
Q

Parameters for PaO2

A

> 10.6

23
Q

Parameters for PaCO2

A

4.7-6.0

24
Q

Parameters HCO3-

A

22-28

25
Q

Causes of metabolic acidosis

A
  • Increased production/ingestion of acid
  • Decreased loss of acid
  • Loss of HCO3
    -Decreased pH + HCO3
26
Q

Metabolic alkalosis

A
  • Increased loss of acid
  • Increase pH + HC03
27
Q

Respiratory compensation mechanisms

A
  • Increasing ventilation = hyperventilating to blow off C02 - decrease pCO2
  • Decreasing ventilation - hypoventialting + increasing pCO2
  • Can occur quickly
28
Q

Kidney metabolic compensation

A
  • Excreting acid - increase HCO3
  • Retain acid - decrease HC03
  • Metabolic compensation usually indicates a chronic problem
  • Takes time
29
Q

Common causes of metabolic alkalosis

A

Vomitting, burns , hypokalemia

30
Q

Common causes of metabolic acidosis

A

Shock (lactic acidosis)
DKA (ketoacidosis)
Renal/liver failure
Drug overdose
Diarrhoea

31
Q

Respiratory acidosis casues

A

Severe COPD/asthma
Severe pneumonia
Severe pulmonary oedema
Myasthenia gravis
Sedative drugs - reduced RR
Scoliosis - ineffective ventialtion
Obesity - hypoventialtion

32
Q

Common causes of resp alkalosis

A

Hyperventialtion/anxiety
Hypoxaemia eg acute asthma
Cranial lesions
