- increased respirations
a normal pH for arterial blood is:
,7.35-7.45
the primary buffer system in the body is:
bicarbonate-carbonic acid buffer system
kidneys regulate:
bicarbonate in ECF
respiratory system regulates:
carbonic acid
which of the following would you see in metabolic acidosis?
- pH: 7.25, CO2: 65, HCO3: 26, PaO2: 45

, which of the following are used in the treatment for metabolic acidosis?
- sodium bicarbonate
- treating the cause
- monitoring for hyperkalemia
AD
what is the cause of altered potassium levels in acid-base imbalances?
acidosis causes H+ ions in the blood to be exchanged for K+ from the cells
which of the following ABGs would someone with hyperemesis present with?
pH: 7.48, CO2: 45, HCO3: 28, PaO2: 80
when assessing a client with a pH: 7.48, PaCO2: 48, HCO3: 29, PaO2: 80, the
nurse would expect to see:
muscle cramping
