Karten in diesem Stapel (20)
- 1What are the primary measurements of the blood gas machinepH, pCO2, and pO2
- 2What is pH?The negative log of the Hydrogen concentration -log[H+]
- 3What is pCO2?The partial pressure of carbon dioxide
- 4What is pO2?The partial pressure of oxygen
- 5What are 'Respiratory acid' and 'Respiratory acidosis'?Carbon dioxide is 'respiratory acid' and is the only acid which can be controlled by respiration. When the pCO2 is high, there is 'respiratory acidosis'
- 6What are 'Metabolic acid' and 'Metabolic acidosis'?Metabolic acids are all the body's acids except carbon dioxide - they are not controlled by respiration, hence they have to be neutralised, metabolised, or excreted by the kidney. Metabolic acidosis is a pH which is more acid than appropriate for the pCO2.
- 7What is an acid?A substance that dissociates in water to produce hydronium ions (H3O+) or more commonly (H+)
- 8What is a base?A substance that can accept protons (H+)
- 9What is a buffer?A mixture of a weak acid and its conjugate base that attenuates a change in pH when a strong acid or base is added

Base excess: High - 18What can be the cause of respiratory acidosis?Rise in CO2 production (fever, sepsis), or failure of ventilation (CNS causes, muscle weakness, increased dead space)
- 19What can be the causes of respiratory alkalosis?Result of hyperventilation or decreased CO2 production
