Respiratory Regulation of Acid-Base Balance — Flashcards

For a given rise in Pco2, the CSF pH falls _____ than that of the blood.

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

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

Renal correction of respiratory acidosis includes increased excretion of excess fixed H+ as _____ and NH4+

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

In response to _____ pH sensed by chemoreceptors, the breathing rate increases (hyperventilation)

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
