Summary Introduction
To review:
Whether a diabetic ketoacidosis patient will hyperventilate or hypo ventilate. The change in the rate and depth of ventilation compensating for acidosis is
Introduction:
Acidosis is a condition in which the pH (potential of hydrogen) of a body fluid becomes less than 7.35. Acidosis is caused when more hydrogen ions are added than the body’s buffer can stick. Acidosis can be broadly divided into two classes: respiratory acidosis and metabolic acidosis.

You are going to do this by blocking sodium reabsorption. In which section of the nephron would it be most effective to block sodium reabsorption if you want to produce more urine?

- A patient has been suffering from constant diarrhea. With this, the patient must be losing much of the intestinal content including the aqueous pancreatic secretion. The patient also becomes hyperchloremic. Which of the following will be the respiratory corrective mechanism? chemoreceptors (which respond to low pH or high H+), causing hypoventilation and increased depth of inspiration and an increase in pCO2 chemoreceptors (which respond to low pH or high H+), causing hyperventilation and a decrease in pCO2 chemoreceptors tell the lungs of the change in pH and commands the pancreas to secrete more bicarbonate chemoreceptors in the kidney trigger the conservation of the bicarbonate in the PCTarrow_forwardResting O2 consumption is about 250 ml/min.
