8. Examine vital signs. Which are abnormal? What are normal ranges? The abnormal ranges are temperature (100.5) and blood pressure (119/56). The normal range: temperature - 97-99.5 blood pressure - 90-100/60-909. Analyze the blood gas analysis. How would you interpret this?Metabolic acidosis partially compensated with hyperoxygenation10. What would you correct? I would correct the bicarbonate11. What is the most likely cause of acid-base balance? The cause of the acid-base balance could be the sedative, the weight of the patient who is obese, respiratory, bicarbonate and metabolic problems.12. If the barometric pressure is 760 using the ABG data, what is the patient's PAO2? (760-47)*1.0-(21/0.8) 713 - 26.25 = 686.7513. What is the aA ratio? Is this normal for this FIO2? 686.75 - 124 = 562.7514. Calculate CaO2? Is this normal? Is this patient well oxygenated?( Hb x 1.34 x SAO2 ) + ( PAO2 x .003 )( 8.9 x 1.34 x .99 ) + ( 124 x .003 ) 11.81 + 0.372 12.18No, it's abnormal. The normal range is (16 – 20). Yes, this patient is well oxygenated because she is turned on 100 %
