.A patient with type I diabetes is found in a coma. Blood glucose, urine glucose, blood ketones, and urine ketones are all elevated; serum HCO3- is < 12 mEq/L. Respirations are quick and deep with acetone breath. Blood pressure is 95/61 mm Hg, and the pulse is weak and rapid (119 beats/min).What factor in this patient's condition is the major cause of their low serum HCO3-? O The patient has been excreting acidic urine. OThe patient has been hyperventilating. The patient has compensated for the low cO2.

Her blood glucose was high, as well as her urine glucose, urine ketones, and serum ketones. Her serum bicarbonate was < 12 mEq/L. Her respiration was exaggerated, and her breath had an acetone odor. Her blood pressure was 90/60 and his pulse weak and rapid (120). 4. What is the acid-base status of this individual? 5. What are the causes of the dyspnea, hypotension, and tachycardia? 6. What type of treatment does this person need?
CC was taken to hospital breathing but unresponsive after two days of heavy alcohol consumption and limited food intake. According to CC's past medical history they had a history of chronic alcohol addiction and fatty liver disease. Analysis of CC's serum glucose returned a value of < 20 mg/dL, indicating severe hypoglycemia. The attending physician prescribed a bolus of D-glucose to help re-establish CC's blood glucose to within normal bounds. Analysis of the CC's serum electrolytes and PaCCh was suggestive of metabolic acidosis. Analysis of CC's blood suggested metabolic acidosis. In CC's case, what can cause metabolic acidosis?
