9 flashcards

The arterial blood profile seen in partially compensated respiratory acidosis is: pH: _____ [HCO3-]: increased PaCO2: increased

Decreased arterial pH (metabolic acidosis) causes compensatory _____-ventilation with consequent decreased PCO2

The primary disturbance in metabolic alkalosis is a(n) _____ in HCO3- OR a decrease in H+

Hypocapnia due to hyperventilation syndrome can lead to respiratory alkalosis and symptoms of _____calcemia

The arterial blood profile seen in compensated respiratory alkalosis is: pH: _____[HCO3-]: decreasedPCO2: decreased

If the pH is reduced from 7.4 to 7.3 with the alveolar PO2 being constant at 100 mmHg, PCO2 would follow line _____.

At _____ urine pH, the HA form of a weak acid exists, thus decreasing excretion

The arterial blood profile seen in compensated metabolic acidosis is: pH: _____[HCO3-]: decreasedPCO2: decreased
