5. The patient has been taken blood samples
for ABG Analysis. As a nurse what will be
your interpretation of the Acid Base and
Balance of the Body if the patient has the
following lab findings:
PH – 7. 32
PCO2 – 50
HCO3 - 30
6. 1. IDENTIFY THE PH
ALKALOSIS – if more than 7.45
ACIDOSIS – if less than 7.35
NormaALKA – 7.41 – 7.45
NormalACI – 7.35 – 7.39
8. 2. IDENTIFY THE CAUSE
(RESPI / META)
PaCO2
ACI – if more than 45mmHg
ALKA – if less than 35 mmHg
HCO3
ACI – If less than 22
ALKA – if more than 26
9. 2. IDENTIFY THE CAUSE
(RESPI / META)
Identify who has the same state as
the PH and that is the cause.
PaCO2 (RESPIRATORY)
HCO3 (METABOLIC)
16. PH – 7. 47
PCO2 – 57
HCO3 - 40
METABOLIC ALKALOSIS PARTIALLY COMPENSATED
1. Identify the PH
2. Determine the Cause
3. Identify if there is
compensation
4. Determine the type of
compensation
17. PH – 7. 60
PCO2 – 10
HCO3 - 21
RESIRATORY ALKALOSIS PARTIALLY COMPENSATED
1. Identify the PH
2. Determine the Cause
3. Identify if there is
compensation
4. Determine the type of
compensation
18. PH – 7. 30
PCO2 – 59
HCO3 - 25
RESIRATORY ACIDOSIS UNCOMPENSATED
1. Identify the PH
2. Determine the Cause
3. Identify if there is
compensation
4. Determine the type of
compensation
19. PH – 7. 43
PCO2 – 29
HCO3 - 15
RESPIRATORY ALKALOSIS FULLY COMPENSATED
1. Identify the PH
2. Determine the Cause
3. Identify if there is
compensation
4. Determine the type of
compensation
20. PH – 7. 37
PCO2 – 20
HCO3 – 20
METABOLIC ACIDOSIS FULLY COMPENSATED
1. Identify the PH
2. Determine the Cause
3. Identify if there is
compensation
4. Determine the type of
compensation
