Acid Base Imbalance HS140 Hannah Wagner

As humans our bodies naturally contain acid and alkali, when our acid and alkali levels become too high or low problems begin to arise. An acid-base imbalance occurs when the pH range of systemic arterial blood is less than 7.35 or higher than 7.45.

Acidosis occurs when the pH levels are low and alkalosis is when pH levels are high (Torta, 2014, p. 1036). Acidosis and alkalosis can occur in both the kidneys and the lungs; respiratory refers to problems in the lungs and metabolic refers to problems in the kidneys.

In both respiratory acidosis and alkalosis the result is from a change in partial pressure Of CO2. Normally this ranges from 35 to 45 mmHg. While in metabolic acidosis and alkalosis the result is from a change in HCO3–. The normal range for this is 22 to 26 mEq/liter (Torta, 2014, p. 1036).

Once an acid-base imbalance occurs the body will try to compensate to reach homeostasis. Respiratory acidosis is defined as “a condition that occurs when the lungs can’t remove enough of the CO2produced by the body.

Excess CO2causes the pH of blood and other bodily fluids to decrease, making them too acidic” (respiratory acidosis, 2016).

Respiratory acidosis occurs when the arterial blood pH levels are below 7.35 and the partial pressure of CO2 or PCO2 is above 45 mmHg. Causes of this imbalance can include depression of the respiratory system in
