Case 1: • 16 year old unconscious. • Acutely unwell a few days. • Vomiting • Breathless.
Case 1: data • pH 6.85 • PCO2 = 2.3 kPa (N 4-5) • PO2 = 15 kPa
pH 6.85 PCO2 = 2.3 kPa (N 4-5) PO2 = 15 kPa What is the acid/base abnormality? • Respiratory acidosis • Metabolic acidosis • Respiratory alkalosis • Metabolic alkalosis
What is the acid/base abnormality? • Low pH = acidosis • ie: excess H+ ions • HCO3- + H+ = CO2 + H20 • Low CO2 = low bicarbonate
What is the acid/base abnormality? • Draw the following graph, which will always tell you the answer:
