Question details
- Calculate the missing value. Report pH to 2 decimal places. Report [HCO3-] to 1 decimal place.
- Indicate whether the patient has an acidosis or an alkalosis.
- Indicate whether the primary disturbance is respiratory or metabolic and whether it is uncompensated, partially compensated, or fully compensated.
This patient hasn’t eaten in over 24 hours.
pO2 = 110 mm Hg
pCO2 = 30 mm Hg
[HCO3] = 17 mmole/L
base excess = -2 mmole/L
pH =
acid/base status:
