b. respiratory alkalosis
2 :
b. respiratory alkalosis acidosis resulting from reduced gas exchange in the lungs (as in emphysema or pneumonia); excess carbon dioxide combines with water to form carbonic acid which increases the acidity of the blood Normal blodd has a pH of 7.3 to 7.45 7.3 is slightly acidic. Hope that helps.
3 :
acidosis means that the pH of the blood is more acidic than it is supposed to be. More acidic means having a lower pH value. Alkalosis stems from alkaline, which means basic, so if the pH is higher than it is supposed to be the person is suffering from alkalosis

We should get like 7000 points every time we answer homework questions. Homework involves research. Go and research the answers to your questions. If you're unable to do so then go to your librarian and ask for information on Library and Research skills. Man, if we had the internet to do our homework when we were growing up, we would all be studying Rocket Science by now.

2. Why is the serum bicarbonate low? 3. What is the acid-base status of this individual

  2. Why is the serum bicarbonate low? 3. What is the acid-base status of this individual?
A 21 year old noncomplaint male with a history of type I (insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus was found in a coma. His blood glucose was high, as well as his urine glucose, urine ketones, and serum ketones. His serum bicarbonate was <12 mEq/L. His respiration was exaggerated and his breath had an acetone odor. His blood pressure was 90/60 and his pulse weak and rapid (120).

low bicarb = acidosis
2 :
, he has got a metabolic acidosis, dehidration and coma hiperosmolar
3 :
This is diabetic ketoacidosis. His ketones rose significantly because of a lack of insulin. I think the bicarb is low because the body wastes it (from the kidneys) because in ketoacidosis, the body produces more urine. It's kussmaul respirations, the body is trying to rid carbon dioxide and the ketones produce a fruity smell on the breath. it's a anion gap metabolic acidosis.
