1. A jpatient jin jrespiratory jdistress jand jis jbreathing j33 jbreaths jper

j minute. jWhich jABG jvalue jis jconsistent jwith jthe jclinical jscenario?

PCO2 j15

pH j7.30

pH j7.45

O2 jsat j100%: jA jpatient jwho jis jbreathing j33 jbreaths jper jminute jis jhyperventilating

j and jblowing joff jCO2; jtherefore jthe jPCO2 jlevel jwill jbe jlow. jThe jpatient jwill jmost jlikely

j experience ja jrespiratory jalkalosis jand jthe jtwo jpH jvalues jprovided jare jnot jconsistent

j with jthis jdiagnosis.

2. A jpatient jhas ja jsodium jlevel jof j115 jmEq/L jand jis jdisoriented jand

j lethargic. jWhich jpathological jprocess jbest jexplains jthis jpatient's jsymptoms?

a. The jaction jpotential jhas jbecome jhyperpolarized.

b. Water jhas jshifted jinto jthe jneurons jand jcaused jthem jto jswell.

c. Water jhas jshifted jinto jthe jvascular jspace jand jdehydrated jthe jneurons.

d. The jaction jpotential jhas jbecome jhypopolarized.: jb. jThe jcause jof jneurologic

j symptoms jassociated jwith ja jsodium jimbalance jis jdirectly jrelated jto jfluid jshifting

j into jor jout jof jthe jneurons jof jthe jbrain. jWith ja jserum jsodium jof j115 jmEq/L, jwater

j shifts jinto jthe jneurons jand jcauses jthem jto jswell. jHypernatremia jcauses jwater jto

j shift jout jof jthe jcell jinto jthe jintravascular jspace jand jcauses jthe jneurons jto jbecome

j dehydrated. jAn jalteration jin jthe jaction jpotential jis jnot jseen jwith jsodium jimbalances.

3. A jpatient jexperiencing jdehydration jshould jbe jmonitored jfor jwhich

j elec- jtrolyte jimbalance?

a. Hyperkalemia

b. Hypocalcemia

c. Hypercalcemia

d. Hyponatermia: ja. jSerum josmolality jis jincreased jduring jtimes jof jdehydration. jAn

j elevated jserum josmolality jwill jpull jpotassium jinto jthe jintravascular jspace jfrom jthe

j intracellular jspace jand jcause ja jrise jin jserum jpotassium.
