ACID-BASE BALANCE ARTERIAL BLOOD GASES PREPARED BY: ADRIAN JUSTIN G. MARASIGAN, RTRP PRESENTATION OUTLINE ADRIAN JUSTIN GALLO ACID-BASE BALANCE ACID-BASE DISTURBANCES ARTERIAL BLOOD GAS SAMPLING OTHER METHODS FOR SAMPLING MARASIGAN ARTERIAL BLOOD GAS ANALYSIS OTHER TECHNIQUES FOR MONITORING BLOOD GASES INTERPRETATION OF ARTERIAL BLOOD GAS RESULT RTRP 2024 ACID-BASE BALANCE ADRIAN JUSTIN Refers to physiologic mechanisms that keep [H+] of body fluids in a range that supports life Body fluids must be kept in a narrow pH range of 7.35 to 7.45 to GALLO function normally This corresponds to [H+] of 45 to 35 nmol/L [H+] ions formed in the body come from either volatile or fixed acids MARASIGAN RTRP 2024 ACID ADRIAN JUSTIN A chemical that gives off/donates [H+] proton donator The body constantly produces acids as a byproduct of metabolism GALLO Carbonic Acid (H2CO3): Formed from the breakdown of carbohydrates and fats Lactic Acid: Produced during intense exercise MARASIGAN Ketoacids: Generated during the breakdown of fats RTRP 2024 BASE ADRIAN JUSTIN A molecule in an aqueous solution that can accept protons or donate electrons Blood is normally slightly basic, with a normal pH range of about 7.35 GALLO to 7.45 Alkaline Reserve: to counteract metabolic process that produce acid MARASIGAN RTRP 2024 BUFFER SOLUTION ADRIAN JUSTIN Resists changes in pH when an acid or a base is added to it Are aqueous mixtures of acid and bases Acid Component: [H+] cation GALLO Base Component: remaining anion Blood buffers are classified as bicarbonate or nonbicarbonate buffer systems MARASIGAN RTRP 2024 BICARBONATE BUFFER SYSTEM ADRIAN JUSTIN OPEN BUFFER SYSTEM H2CO3 is in equilibrium with dissolved CO2, which is readily removed by ventilation GALLO consists of H2CO3 and its conjugate base, HCO3- When H+ is buffered by HCO3-, the product, H2CO3, is broken down into H2O and CO2 as long as ventilation removes CO2 MARASIGAN Buffers only H+ produced by fixed acids; cannot buffer volatile acid RTRP 2024 BICARBONATE BUFFER SYSTEM ADRIAN JUSTIN Bicarbonate buffer systems cannot buffer carbonic acid (volatile acid), which accumulates in the blood whenever ventilation fails to eliminate CO2 as fast as it is produced (hypoventilation) GALLO The resulting accumulation of CO2 drives the hydration reaction in the direction that produces more carbonic acid, H+, and HCO3- MARASIGAN RTRP 2024 NONBICARBONATE BUFFER SYSTEM ADRIAN JUSTIN CLOSED BUFFER SYSTEM All the components of acid-base reactions remain in the system All nonbicarbonate buffer systems are grouped together and GALLO represented as Hbuf/Buf- Hbuf: Weak Acid Buf-: Conjugate Base MARASIGAN Hb is most important simply because it is the most abundant Buffers both H+ of volatile acids and fixed acids RTRP 2024 ADRIAN JUSTIN GALLO MARASIGAN RTRP 2024 BUFFER SYSTEMS ADRIAN JUSTIN Both systems are physiologically important, each playing a unique and essential role in maintaining pH homeostasis Bicarbonate buffers have the greatest buffering capacity because GALLO they function in an open system MARASIGAN RTRP 2024 BUFFER SYSTEMS ADRIAN JUSTIN GALLO MARASIGAN RTRP 2024 HENDERSON-HASSELBACH EQUATION ADRIAN JUSTIN The H-H equation allows the pH, HCO3-, or PCO2, to be computed if two of these three variables are known Blood gas analyzers measure pH and PCO2, but compute HCO3- GALLO useful in checking a clinical blood gas report to see if the pH, PCO2, and HCO3- values are compatible with one another MARASIGAN RTRP 2024 ACID EXCRETION ADRIAN JUSTIN Lungs and Kidneys are the primary acid-excreting organs Lungs: Can only excrete volatile acids (CO2) Kidneys also remove fixed acids but at a slow pace GALLO Individuals affected by disease, failure of one system can be partially offset by a compensatory response MARASIGAN RTRP 2024 LUNGS ADRIAN JUSTIN Because the volatile acid H2CO3 is in equilibrium with dissolved CO2, the lungs can decrease blood H2CO3 concentration through ventilation GALLO Elimination of CO2 is crucial because normal aerobic metabolism produces large quantities of CO2, which reacts with H2O to form H2CO3 MARASIGAN Approximately 24,000 mmol/L of CO2 is removed from the body daily through normal ventilation RTRP 2024 KIDNEYS ADRIAN JUSTIN The kidneys physically remove H+ from the body by: Excretion: elimination of substances from the body in the urine Secretion GALLO Reabsorption Kidneys excrete less than 100 mEq/L of fixed acid per day MARASIGAN Compared with the ability of lungs to change the blood PCO2 in seconds, the renal process is slow, requiring hours to days Kidneys influence blood pH by reabsorbing or excreting HCO3- RTRP 2024 if pCO2 is high: Kidneys excrete more H+ and absorbs HCO3- if pCO2 is low: Kidneys excrete less H+ and more HCO3- ADRIAN JUSTIN GALLO ARTERIAL BLOOD GAS SAMPLING AND ANALYSIS MARASIGAN RTRP 2024 ABG ADRIAN JUSTIN ABGs are considered the “gold standard” of gas exchange analysis Blood gas analysis monitors the following physiologic variables GALLO PaO2:

PaO2 (Arterial PO2) is the portion of O2 that is dissolved in the plasma of blood GALLO For every 1 mmHg of PaO2, there is 0.003 mL of dissolved O2 PAO2 - (Alveolar PO2) Is calculated by the following formula MARASIGAN RTRP 2024 ARTERIAL OXYGENATION ADRIAN JUSTIN GALLO MARASIGAN RTRP 2024 ARTERIAL OXYGENATION ADRIAN JUSTIN P(A-a)O2 Difference between alveolar O2 Tension and arterial O2 tension

hemoglobin that is bound by oxygen GALLO SaO2 value reported by a blood gas analyzer is calculated actual saturation can be measured using hemoximeter or co- oximeter Large differences between the calculated and measured values MARASIGAN may be due to elevated carbon monoxide (COHb) levels Normal Value: 95-100% Formula: PaO2 = SaO2 - 30 RTRP 2024 ARTERIAL OXYGENATION ADRIAN JUSTIN Arterial

ventilation keeps the arterial PCO2 in the range of 35 to 45 mmHg GALLO These normal values produce an arterial pH range of 7.35 to 7.45 As shown by the H-H equation When [HCO3-] is 24 mEq/L and PaCO2 is 40 mmHg, the pH is MARASIGAN exactly 7.40 RTRP 2024 NORMAL ACID BASE BALANCE ADRIAN JUSTIN Plasma pH is determined by the ratio of [HCO3-] to dissolved CO2 As long as the ratio of [HCO3-] buffer to dissolved CO2 is 20:1, the pH is normal GALLO MARASIGAN An increase in HCO3- or decrease in PCO2 increases the pH Alkalemia Ratio > 20:1 RTRP 2024 A decreased HCO3- or an increase PCO2 decreases the pH Acidemia Ratio < 20:1 PRIMARY RESPIRATORY DISTURBANCES ADRIAN JUSTIN RESPIRATORY ACIDOSIS A high PCO2 increases dissolved CO2, decreasing the pH Hypoventilation GALLO MARASIGAN RESPIRATORY ALKALOSIS A low PCO2 decreases dissolved CO2, raising the pH Hyperventilation RTRP 2024 PRIMARY METABOLIC DISTURBANCES ADRIAN JUSTIN METABOLIC ACIDOSIS Build-up of a fixed acid in the body is buffered
