In a person who suffers acidosis, the way to counteract the condition is by:     Drink a large amont of water     Slow Breathing     Inhale a greater amount of CO2 than normal     Stop breathing     Fast and deep breathing

A patient exhibits the following symptoms: elevated urine ammonia and increased rate of respiration. Does the patient have metabolic acidosis or metabolic alkalosis?

To demonstrate an understanding of oxyhemoglobin binding, insert a word from the list in each blank to complete the statements. Not all terms will be used. increased A right shift of the oxy-hemoglobin curve signifies a affinity for oxygen. hold acidic A temperature will cause a right shift of the oxy- hemoglobin curve. basic A more pH than normal blood pH will cause a right shift higher of the oxy-hemoglobin curve. As a person exercises, their muscles give off heat which raises the temperature of the blood. This will cause hemoglobin to more oxygen at the cells. lower release decreased

Identify the three blood variables considered when making a diagnosis of acidosis or alkalosis, what are the sources of compensation for blood pH problem of a respiratory origin and of a metabolic/renal origin?

Circle the term that does not belong in each of the following groupings. ↑ respiratory rate ↓ blood CO 2 Alkalosis Acidosis Acidosis Carbonic acid Hypoventilation CO 2 buildup Acidosis Hyperventilation Hypoventilation CO2 buildup Apnea Cyanosis ↑ O2 ↓ O2 ↓ pH ↑ blood CO2 Acidosis blood H+

What happens to compliance and elastance in the disease state of: Emphysema?   Cystic fibrosis?

What makes the lungs, brain, legs, and lower back more vulnerable to edema compared to other body parts/ organs?

Dissolved oxygen levels are higher in calm bodies of water.   True or False?

what is the answer

During Respiratory Acidosis the PH will be below _________ and the CO2 will be above _______.  During Respiratory Alkalosis the PH will be above ________ and the CO2 will be less then __________.  During Metabolic Acidosis the PH will be below ___________ and the HCO3- will be less then ____________.  During Metabolic Alkalosis the PH will be above _________ and the HCO3- will be more then ___________.
