Sources of error in the collection and handling of blood gas specimens include:the collection deviceform and concentration of heparin used for anticoagulationspeed of syringe fillingmaintenance of the anaerobic environmentmixing of the sample to ensure dissolution and distribution of the heparin, and transportstorage time before analysisACID AND BASES17pH ReviewpH = - log [H+]H+ is really a protonRange is from 0 - 14If [H+] is high, the solution is acidic; pH < 7If [H+] is low, the solution is basic or alkaline ; pH > 71819

Small changes in pH can produce major disturbancesMost enzymes function only with narrow pH rangesAcid-base balance can also affect electrolytes (Na+, K+, Cl-)Can also affect hormones26The body produces more acids than basesAcids take in with foodsAcids produced by metabolism of lipids and proteinsCellular metabolism produces CO2.CO2 + H20 H2CO3 H+ + HCO3-27Regulation of AcidBase Balance: Lungs and Kidneys

Diagnosis of Acid-Base Imbalances78INTERPRETATION OF BLOOD GASES
Step 1: Determine if the numbers fit. The right side of the equation should be within about 10% of the left side. If the numbers do not fit, you need to obtain another ABG
INTERPRETATION OF BLOOD GASESStep 2: determine if an acidemia (pH 7.44) is present.
Step 3: Identify the primary disturbance as metabolic or respiratory.83 In other words, identify which component, respiratory or metabolic, is altered in the same direction as the pH abnormality.
If both components act in the same direction (eg, both respiratory [pCO2 > 44 mm Hg] and metabolic [HCO3 - 12 mmol/L; caused by a decrease in [HCO3 -] balanced by an increase in an unmeasured acid ion from either endogenous production or exogenous ingestion (normochloremic acidosis).
Non anion Gap Acidosis:Anion gap = 8-12 mmol/L; caused by a decrease in [HCO3 -] balanced by an increase in chloride (hyperchloremic acidosis). Renal tubular acidosis is a type of non gap acidosis The anion gap is helpful in identifying metabolic gap acidosis, non gap acidosis, mixed metabolic gap and non gap acidosis. If an elevated anion gap is present, a closer look at the anion gap and the bicarbonate helps differentiate among(a) a pure metabolic gap acidosis(b) a metabolic non gap acidosis(c) mixed metabolic gap and non gap acidosis, and (d) a metabolic gap acidosis and metabolic alkalosis.
