Emphysema

Antacid overdose

Hyperventilation

Thoracic or abdominal surgery

Kidney failure

H+ high

H+ low

pH high

pH low

Respiratory acidosis

Respiratory

alkalosis

Metabolic acidosis

Metabolic alkalosis

Respiratory compensation by hyperventilation

Respiratory compensation by hypoventilation

Renal compensation by H+ excretion

Renal compensation by H+ reabsorption

Instructions for completing the Acid/Base Imbalance Worksheet

  1. In each vertical column, there is a list of illnesses or conditions.
  2. It the horizontal column are a list of descriptions.
  3. Place an “X” in the box that best describes each illness or condition.
  4. For example, look at the Diabetic Ketoacidosis column.
    1. Place an X in the first box if the H+ is high.
    2. Place an X in the second box if the H+ is low.
    3. Place an X in the third box if the pH would be high.
    4. Place an X in the fourth box if the pH would be low.
    5. Place an X in the fifth box if diabetic ketosis is a respiratory acidosis condition.
    6. Place an X in the sixth box if diabetic ketoacidosis is a respiratory alkalosis condition.
    7. Place an X in the seventh box if this condition is a metabolic acidosis condition.
    8. Place an X in the eighth box if this condition is a metabolic alkalosis condition.
    9. Continue down the column until you have marked an X in each box that applies to diabetic ketoacidosis.
  5. Each vertical column will have exactly 4 X’s.
