acidosis/alkalosis

Question 1

acidosis

Answer 1

increase h+, CO2. decreased O2

Question 2

alkalosis

Answer 2

decreased H+, Co2. increased O2

Question 3

respiratory acidosis

Answer 3

Cause: decreased ventilation
Example: Hold breath, consolidation (pneurmonia)
How to fix(exact opposite): Urinate NH4+ out

Question 4

respiratory alkalosis

Answer 4

cause: increased ventilation
example: hyperventilation
how to fix (exact opposite): bag over head and/or excrete bicarbonate (NaCO3)

Question 5

Metabolic Acidosis

Answer 5

cause: non-lung acidosis
example: diarrhea (lose HCO3-), DM: Ketoacidosis
how to fix: hyperventilation to blow off Co2.

Question 6

metabolic alkalosis

Answer 6

cause: non-lung alkalosis
example: bulimia-loss of HCl, diuretics-lose H+
How to fix: slow breathing
