An unconscious patient is delivered to emergency room. His blood gases are obtained: pH = 7.09, HCO3- = 15 mEq/L, pCO2 = 50mmHg.
What type of acid-base disorder this patient has? Why is he unconscious?
Step by step
Solved in 2 steps
- A patient exhibits the following blood characteristics. pH = 7.49 P co2 = 50 HCO3- = 29 mEq/L What is the likely condition? respiratory acidosis respiratory alkalosis metabolic acidosis metabolic alkalosisHenry is in the intensive care unit because he suffered a severe myocardial infarction three days ago. The lab reports the followingvalues from an arterial blood sample: pH 7.30, HCO320 mEq/ liter, PCO2 32 mmHg. Diagnose Henry’s acid–base status and decide whether compensation is occurring.Adult male suffered myocardial infarction and is currently in cardiogenic shock. Blood pH = 7.25, [HCO3-] = 14 mmol/L, PaCO2 = 38 mmHg. What kind of acid-base imbalance is the patient suffering from? Briefly describe fully how this occurred.
- Mr. Jones has COPD, an obstructive respiratory disorder. An arterial blood gas (ABG) sample was taken and she had an elevated arterial PCO2. Answer the following questions: What happens to H+ concentrations? What happens to pH? What type of acid-base imbalance is created? (Hint: Select one of these choices: metabolic acidosis, metabolic alkalosis, respiratory acidosis, or respiratory alkalosis) What type of compensation occurs? What does the body do during this type of compensation?interpret the following ABG: pH= 7.7 paCO2= 30 paO2= 70 HCO3= 32 What type of imbalance is the patient experiencing?Mrs. Breathless is a 45-year-old female nurse with a history of asthma. She reports to the ED in the early morning with shortness of breath, blurred vision, headache, and restlessness. After several laboratory tests, the following ABG (arterial blood gases) lab results are confirmed: Blood pH=7.30 PaCO2 = 46 mm Hg HCO3 = 24 mEq/L. Based on the results of her ABG, which acid-base imbalance is Mrs. Breathless likely experiencing? Justify your answer by referencing the ROME mnemonic. What is the underlying pathophysiology of this disorder? What type of compensation is likely to take place? Why do you think Mrs. Breathless developed this imbalance? What are some of the contributing factors leading to this?
- 1) Identify the lab value of Yusef's bicarbonate ion level in mEq/Liters. Only type in numbers, no letters (type out your number to zero places after the decimal point. i.e 8 or 18) pH = 7.68 PaCO2 = 21 mmHg 2) His condition is : 3 answers required: respiratory or metabolic acidosis or alkalosis uncompensated or partial compensation Group of answer choices respiratory metabolic acidosis alkalosis uncompensated partial compensationList four conditions that produce abnormal ABG values. Use a SEMICOLON to separate your answers. Your answer What is a normal blood pH? Your answer Besides alcohol, which other antiseptic must be used for arterial puncture? Your answerA patient's arterial blood gas (ABG) values are pH = 7.34, PaCO2 = 44, HCO3 = 28. The nurse would analyze these findings as indicating metabolic acidosis, partially compensated respiratoy acidosis, partially compensated metabolic acidosis, uncompensated respiratory acidosis, uncompensated
- A nurse has a patient who she suspects might have long term respiratory acidosis. Which of the following pieces of information would support her suspicion? 1.An acidic pH and a decrease in Pco2 2. An alkaline (or basic) pH and an increase in Pco2 3. An acidic pH and an increase in Pco2 4. Hyperventilation 5. Hypoventilation 6. Increased plasma HCO3 7. Decreased plasma HCO3 O 1,4, 6 O 2, 5, 6 O 3, 5, 6 O 1, 5, 7 O 3, 4, 6a 86 years old women brought to emergency room with these readings :PH = 7.22 (normal :7.35-7.45) , PaCO2 = 9.6 mmHg ( normal: 35-45) ,HCO3- = 3.9 mmol/l ( normal : 22-26) .. she complains from : A) Metabolic acidosis. B)Respiratory acidosis. C)Metabolic alkalosis. D)Respiratory alkalosis.A 50-year-old man came to the emergency department after returning from foreign travel. His symptoms included persistent diarrhea (over the past 3 days) and rapid respiration (tachypnea). Blood gases were drawn with the following results: pH 7.21 pco2 19 mm Hg po2 96 mm Hg HCO3 − 7 mmol/L SO2 96% (calculated) (reference range, >95%) What is the patient’s acid–base status? Why is the HCO3 − level so low? Why does the patient have rapid respiration? *Kindly answer all questions. Thank you
