Fun Quiz: Acid Base Balance

Are you ready to take the ASCP, AMT, or AAB Certification Exams for MLS, CLS & MLT?

Tests your knowledge in Acid Base Balance and find out. Do it for fun or take this practice exam to help you prepare.

 

#1. Match the acid-base status of the following blood samples to the disorders in the given choices. (PaCO2 values are in mm Hg and bicarbonate values in mmol/l). pH 7.57, PCO2 22, HCO3- 17

#2. The results from the ABG results show pH 7.39, PCO2 27 mmHg, and HCO3 19 mEq/L. What does this mean?

#3. The major effect of acidosis is overexcitement of the central nervous system.

#4. Match the acid-base status of the following blood samples to the disorders in the given choices. (PaCO2 values are in mm Hg and bicarbonate values in mmol/l). pH 7.34, PCO2 24, HCO3- 20

#5. A young woman is found comatose, having taken an unknown number of sleeping pills an unknown time before. An arterial blood sample yields the following values: pH 6.90, HCO3- 13 meq/liter, and PCO2 68 mmHg. This patient’s acid-base status is most accurately described as:

#6. Anne, who is drinking beer at a party, falls and hits her head on the ground. Her friend Liza dials “911” because Anne is unconscious, depressed ventilation (shallow and slow respirations), rapid heart rate, and is profusely bleeding from both ears. Which primary acid-base imbalance is Anne at risk for if medical attention is not provided?

#7. Measurement of arterial blood gas shows pH 7.5, PO2 85 mm Hg, PCO2 40 mm Hg, and HCO3 34 mmol/L. What acid-base disorder is shown?

#8. What two organs in the body serve as a compensatory function to maintain acid-base balance?

#9. The human body functions optimally in a state of homeostasis

#10. In acid-base balance, the normal plasma PCO2 and bicarbonate levels are disturbed. Match the changes in this parameter with the disorders in the given choices: High plasma PCO2
