LECTURE 1: Acid Base Balance & Ventilator Interpreting blood gases (remember the rules of the B’s) • If the pH and the bicarb are both in the same direction then it’s metaBolic (Bicarb Both Bolic), if they are in different directions then it is respiratory • If bicarb is normal and the pH is low or high then its respiratory • You will be given 8 values for arterial blood gas, always first look at the pH and the bicarb first • You get acidosis and alkalosis from the pH ...

Exam (elaborations) NUR 1310 MARK KLI.MEK Review (NUR1310) 1. Acid-base balance/ventilators Rule of the B’s.. 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 =↓ bicarb: 30 =↑ = respiratory acidosis ...
