Respiratory Acidosis - Answers -Is a primary excess of carbonic acid in the ECF. It is
produced by inadequate excretion of CO2 with inadequate ventilation, resulting in
elevated plasma CO2 and increased levels of carbonic acid.
HIGH PaCO2 DUE TO ALVEOLAR HYPOVENTILATION
Respiratory Alkalosis - Answers -is a primary deficit of carbonic acid in the ECF. It is the
result of alveolar hyperventilation, breathing that is faster and deeper, and the
consequent increase in the elimination of CO2. This loss of CO2 leads to a decrease in
the carbonic acid level in the plasma and an increase in the pH.
LOW PaCO2 DUE TO ALVEOLAR HYPERVENTILATION
