Metabolic acidosis
1. COVID 19 client
on day 8 of illness is
having desaturation.
On admission to
b. Respiratory acidosis
DCH his ABG status
is as below: pH= 7.2
, P02= 70 mm Hg ,
pCO2= 50 mm Hg
and HCO3= 29
c. Metabolic alkalosis
meq/L.
Interpretation is?

d. Respiratory alkalosis
 . Diabetic client
a. Metabolic acidosis
2
is having
vomiting due to
eating Chinese
food. He is
feeling weak and
then become
b. Metabolic alkalosis
unconscious and
was admitted to
hospital.
Comment on
c. Respiratory acidosis
ABG. pH= 7.5 ,
PCO2= 49 mm
Hg and HCO3=
34 meq/L
d. Respiratory alkalosis
 a. Compensation will be respiratory
acidosis
3. Diabetic client is
having UTI for last 3 b. Long-acting insulin should be added
days. Today he is
admitted in to treatment of T2DM
stuporous condition
with ABG as pH=
7.1, PCO2= 30 mm c. Use sliding scale to calculate regular
Hg and HCO3= 15
meq/L. Which is insulin usage in the client
correct about him?

d. MCC coz of UTI is klebsiella

 a. Metabolic acidosis
4. Interpret
ABG,
pH=7.2 , b. Respiratory acidosis
PC02=40
mm Hg and c. Metabolic alkalosis
HCO3= 20
meq/ L?
d. Respiratory alkalosis
 a. Compensated respiratory acidosis

5. Interpret
ABG, pH= b. Compensated respiratory alkalosis
7.2, pCO2=
50 mm Hg c. Uncompensated respiratory
and HCO3= acidosis
30 meq/L?
d. Uncompensated respiratory
alkalosis
