- 1)dentify the lab value of Corbin's bicarbonate ion level in mEq/Liter. Only type in numbers no letters (type out your number to zero places after the decimal point. i.e 8 or 18) pH = 7.52 PaCO2 = 48 mm 2) Corbin's condition is determined to be> 3 answers required: respiratory or metabolic acidosis or alkalosis uncompensated or partial compensation Group of answer choices respiratory metabolic acidosis alkalosis uncompensated partial compensationarrow_forwardCase Study: Kim is a 38-year-old women admittedto the hospital for bulimia. Her laboratory results are asfollows: pH 7.48, pCO2 in the normal range, and totalHCO3– higher than normal. Classify her acid-base balanceas acidosis or alkalosis, and as metabolic or respiratory. Isthere evidence of compensation? Propose the mechanismby which bulimia contributed to the lab results seen.arrow_forwardDetermine the type of acid-base imbalance and the corresponding compensation according to the following results from the arterial-blood-gas test. Blood pH: 7.25PCO2: 35 mmHgBicarbonate concentration: 18 mmol/L (b) Give one possible medical condition that leads to the acid-base imbalance in (a).arrow_forward
- Micky Mango is a 64-year-old male admitted to the emergency room for asthma. His laboratory results are as follows: pH 7.31, pCO2 higher than normal, and total HCO3– also higher than normal. Classify his acid-base balance as acidosis or alkalosis, and as metabolic or respiratory. Is there evidence of compensation? Propose the mechanism by which asthma contributed to the lab results seen.arrow_forwardGeneral Blood Urine BP: 95/58 pH: 7.1 Odor: "fruity acetone" HR: 110 bpm Glucose: 345 mg/dl pH: 4.3 Ketone bodies: 22 mg/dl Glucose: Strongly positive Blood alcohol: 110 mg/dl 4. Explain how the pH of Mr. Bouchard's blood and urine is related to the ketone bodies measured in each of these fluids. 5. Provide a possible "alternative" explanation for Mr. Bouchard's erratic behavior and high blood alcohol concentration. Think outside the box. 6. What metabolic disease do you suspect Mr. Bouchard suffers from?arrow_forwardIdentify 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?arrow_forward
- given the pCO2 and pH of systemic arterial blood, be able to identify the type of acid-base imbalance (respiratory acidosis, respiratory alkalosis, metabolic acidosis, metabolic alkalosis). After identifying the type of acid-base imbalance, be able to determine what type of compensation will occur to restore pHarrow_forwardEvaluate the following ABG results. Determine whether the results are high, low, or normal. Distinguish between acidosis and alkalosis. Is the cause metabolic or respiratory? Is compensation occurring? Patient Results: pH 7.40 PCO2 54 HCO3 32arrow_forwardWhat do the following arterial blood values indicate? pH = 7.59 PCO2 = 45 mm Hg HCO3- = 35 mEq/L Question 47 options: Respiratory acidosis without compensation Metabolic alkalosis without compensation Respiratory alkalosis without compensation Respiratory acidosis with partial compensation Mixed disturbancearrow_forward
- 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.arrow_forwardAdult male suffered myocardial infarction and is currently in cardiogenic shock. Blood pH = 7.25, [HCO3-] = 14 mmol/L, PaCO2 = 38 mmHg. What kind of acid-base imbalance is the patient suffering from? Briefly describe fully how this occurred.arrow_forwardA 45-year-old woman develops severe diarrhea while on vacation. She develops dehydration and renal failure as a complication. She has the following arterial blood values:pH = 7.25 (Low)Pco2 = 24 mm Hg (low)[HCO3-] = 10 mEq/L (low)Venous blood samples show decreased blood [K+] and a normal anion gap.a.
