Introduction:
An old woman has been admitted to the hospital, showing left ventricular failure and severe renal failure. The laboratory report revealed the pH (potential of hydrogen) as 7.29, partial pressure of carbon dioxide as 32 millimeters of mercury (mm Hg), bicarbonate (HCO3−) levels as 17 milliequivalent per liter (mEq/L), and partial pressure of oxygen as 64 mm Hg. The kidneys maintain the HCO3− and H+ levels in the blood.
