Question

Case Study: Kim is a 38-year-old women admitted
to the hospital for bulimia. Her laboratory results are as
follows: pH 7.48, pCO2 in the normal range, and total
HCO3
– higher than normal. Classify her acid-base balance
as acidosis or alkalosis, and as metabolic or respiratory. Is
there evidence of compensation? Propose the mechanism
by which bulimia contributed to the lab results seen.
