A structured approach to acid-base interpretation.

There is acidaemia (low pH), respiratory acidosis (high Paco SB 2 sb ) and metabolic alkalosis (high There is a very severe acidaemia (low pH) with respiratory alkalosis (low Paco SB 2 sb ) and metabolic acidosis (low 15 mmol/L, Na SP + sp 147 mmol/L, K SP + sp 7 mmol/L, Cl SP - sp 95 mmol/L. There is very mild acidaemia (low pH) with respiratory alkalosis (low Paco SB 2 sb ) and metabolic acidosis (low In this case, there are three concomitant disorders: respiratory alkalosis, HAGMA and metabolic alkalosis.
