Steps to ABG analysis *Step 1* : Analyze the pH <7.35 Acidosis >7.45 alkalosis label it. ABG analysis *Step 2* : Analyze the CO2 <35 is alkalotic >45 is acidic 2 label it. ABG analysis *Step 3* : Analyze the HCO3 <22 acidotic >26 alkalotic label it ABG analysis *Step 4* : Match the CO2 or the HCO3 with the pH if the pH and CO2 are acidotic then the acid-base disturbance is caused by the respiratory system if the pH and CO2 is alkalotic then its ca...

DAILY ACID PRODUCTION We produce 80 mmol H+ ions per day, which require to be buffered & excreted to maintain acid:base balance. A small proportion of these H+ ions are derived from our daily intake of ingested acids (mainly from meat and fish); the majority are produced as by- or end-products of metabolism of proteins, glucose and fats.
