| What are the 3 primary events that causes Metabolic Acidosis? |
|
Definition
- Kidney production of lactic acid (Glucophage)
- Kidney production of Ketones
- Kidney dysfunction resulting in kidneys unable to secrete acid |

Definition
|
|
Term
| What are the primary events that causes Metabolic Alkalosis? |
|
Definition
- Hypokalemia that causes H+ to shift into the intracellular space
- Prolonged vomiting (loss of HCL from vomiting causes H+ ions to leave the intravascular space resulting in a increased ph) |
|
|
Term
| What is the primary event that causes Metabolic Alkalosis d/t an increase of bicarbonate (HCO3)? |
|
Definition
| - Taking in an excess baking soda, alka-seltzer |

Term
| What is the result of an increase in pH in the Respiratory system? ...What happens to the respiratory rate/depth? |
|
Definition
- A decrease in respiratory rate/depth
- Result: CO2 is retained |
|
|
Term
| What is the result of an decrease in pH in the Respiratory system? ...What happens to the respiratory rate/depth? |
|
Definition
- An increase in the respiratory rate/depth
- Result: Greater excretion of CO2 via lungs "CO2 is blown off" |
|
|
Term
| What is the result of an increase in pH in the Renal system? |
|
Definition
| - Kidneys retain H+ and HCO3 is excreted |
|
|
Term
| What is the result of an decrease in pH in the Renal system? |
|
Definition
| - Kidneys excrete H+ and HCO3 is formed and retained |

|
Definition
- Ph < 7.35 (Less than)
- pCO2 >45 (greater than)
- HCO3 22 - 26 (renal stays the same) |
