If the pH & the bicarb are both in the same direction = metabolic If they are in different directions = respiratory pH = 7.35-7.45 acidosis/alkalosis HCO3 (bicarb) = 22-26 (2+2+2 = 6) CO2 = 45-35 ex: pH: 7.30 = ↓ bicarb: 20 = ↓ = metabolic acidosis ex: pH: 7.58 =↑ bicarb: 32 = ↑ = metabolic alkalosis ex: pH: 7.22 =↓ bica...

metabolic - both pH and bicarb are in same direction respiratory - in opposite directions normal pH - 7.35-7.45 normal bicarb - 22-26 (2+2+2=6) When pH is high - Alkalosis. everything is high, K+ is low. Ex: hyperreflexia, irritable, taco, When pH is low - Acidosis. everything is low, K+ is high. Ex: lethargic, Brady Mac Kussmaul - The only acid base to cause Kussmaul respirations is Metabolic ACidosis patient over ventilating - pick alkalosis patient under ventilating - pick acidosis m...
