Summary Introduction
Case summary:
Kyle Boulard, a 32-year-old man, was reported to behave erratically. He staggered while walking and appeared disoriented. Moreover, his breath had the odor of fruity acetone.
Characters in the case:
A 32-year-old man Kyle Boulard.
Adequate information:
The results of the tests are as follows:
General | Blood | Urine |
Blood pressure: 95/98 | pH: 7.1 | pH: 4.3 |
HR (heart rate): 110 | Glucose: 345 mg/dl (milligram per deciliter) | Glucose: strongly positive |
Ketone bodies: strongly positive; odor: fruity acetone |
To determine:
The pH of blood, as well as urine, is related to the ketone bodies measured in these bodily fluids.

Which lab values are related to determining the need for acid base balance therapy? Which lab values are may signify the need for a blood transfusion?
B.A. has received a total of 3.5 L of normal saline solution in boluses during the past 6 hours and remains hemodynamically unchanged. His urine output has averaged 25 mL/hour for the past 4 hours, indicating volume replacement is inadequate. Given his age and the lack of response to initial crystalloid administration, the decision is made to infuse a colloid solution. How does hetastarch compare with human serum albumin as a volume expander for B.A., and which agent should be used?
Mrs. Breathless is a 45-year-old female nurse with a history of asthma. She reports to the ED in the early morning with shortness of breath, blurred vision, headache, and restlessness. After several laboratory tests, the following ABG (arterial blood gases) lab results are confirmed:
Blood pH=7.30
PaCO2 = 46 mm Hg
HCO3 = 24 mEq/L.
Based on the results of her ABG, which acid-base imbalance is Mrs. Breathless likely experiencing? Justify your answer by referencing the ROME mnemonic.
What is the underlying pathophysiology of this disorder? What type of compensation is likely to take place?
Why do you think Mrs. Breathless developed this imbalance? What are some of the contributing factors leading to this?
