Metabolic - ANSWhen the pH and bicarb (HCO3) are in the same direction it is what?
pH - ANS7.35-7.45
HCO3 - ANS22-26
PaCo2 - ANS45-35
acidosis/alkalosis - ANSwhat is based off of the pH?
the body gets more irritable/hyperexcitable - ANSas the pH goes up, so does my patient, except
for potassium
the body systems start to shut down - ANSas the pH goes down, so does my patient, except for
potassium
potassium goes up - ANSwhen pH goes down
potassium goes down - ANSwhen pH goes up
alkalosis signs & symptoms (things go up) - ANSseizure
irritability
hyperreflexia (+3/+4)
tachypnea/tachycardia
borborgymi (increased bowel sounds)
acidosis signs & symptoms (things go down) - ANScoma
bradycardia
paralytic ileus
hyporeflexia (0/+1)
lethargic/obtunded
seizures, have a suction at bedside - ANSalkalosis patient's are more prone to what?
coma/respiratory arrest (have ambu bag at bedside) - ANSacidosis patient's are more prone to
what?
kussmaul respirations - ANSmetabolic acidosis patient's have what?
is it dealing with the lungs? - ANSrespiratory
