acid
pH below 7
carbonic acid
weak acid, formed by water and CO2
bicarbonate system
buffers the blood plasma
phosphate system
buffers urine and intracellular fluid
alkalosis
blood pH increases past 7.45
acidosis
blood ph decreases past 7.35
law of mass action
reversible reactions will be driven from the side with higher concentrations to the side with lower concentrations
respiratory acidosis
too much dissolved CO2 in the plasma; increases partial pressure and H+ concentration; caused by hypoventilation
by metabolic alkalosis
what is respiratory acidosis compensated for?
metabolic acidosis
pH of blood drops due to accumulation of non-respiratory acids
by respiratory alkalosis
what is metabolic acidosis compensated for?
respiratory alkalosis
too little CO2 in the plasma, decreases partial pressure; hyperventiliation
by metabolic acidosis
what is respiratory alkalosis compensated for?
metabolic alkalosis
rise in arterial blood pH due to excessive loss of H+ or a gain in bases
by respiratory acidosis
what is metabolic alkalosis compensated for?
