Ms Young presents to the emergency room department in respiratory distress. The respiratory therapist measures the pH of her blood and determines that it is 7.15. Is the pH of her blood more acidic or more basic than normal? Has the number of hydrogen ions in her blood dcreased or decreased? Explain
The normal pH of blood is 7.35-4.45. The normal pCO2 level is 35-45mmHg. John
has blood work performed. His recorded pH is 7.1. His recorded PCO2 is 20mmHg.
Based on this describe the acid base state of John. (ie, metabolic acidosis, metabolic
alkalosis, respiratory acidosis, and respiratory alkalosis). Support your answer.

She is having a difficult time keeping solids and liquids down, and has become severely dehydrated. After fainting at work, she was taken to a walk-in clinic, where an IV was placed to help rehydrate her. Arterial blood was drawn first, revealing the following: pH 7.50 pCO2 40 mm Hg pO2 95 mm Hg Hemoglobin - O2 saturation 97% [HCO3-] 32 meq / liter Questions: 1.
