Unconscious patient arrives in ER with smell of alcohol. After running test the results as followed: -elevated plasma osmolality -elevated ion gap -very low ph Which test testing would you order and why. A. Ethanol- it causes significant metabolic acidosis B. Ethylene glycol and methanol- it causes significant metabolic acidosis
