Question
You test the arterial blood pH of both brothers before they are treated. The normal range for arterial pH is 7.35-7.45.
Here are the arterial pH results:
• Dave: arterial pH = 7.31
• Michael: arterial pH = 7.20
The physician you are shadowing tells you that Dave's arterial pH value of 7.31 indicates acidosis, although this level of acidosis
does not normally cause loss of consciousness or delirium. Conversely, Michael's pH value of 7.20 indicates severe acidosis,
which could result in neurological problems.
You also get the test results showing serum levels of ketone bodies, using acetoacetate and acetone as markers. Ketone body
levels are normally undetectable in healthy individuals.
Here are the ketone body results:
• Dave: low but detectable levels of both markers
• Michael: dangerously high levels of both markers
