1) Which acid-base imbalance results from impaired expiration due to emphysema? Respiratory Acidosis 2) Inpatients with impaired expiration associated with emphysema, effective compensation for the a ... cid-base imbalance would be: decreased urine pH and increased serum bicarbonate 3) An anxiety attack often causes hyperventilation leading to: decreased PCO2 4) A prolonged state of metabolic acidosis often leads to: hyperkalemia 5) Which of the following is a manifestation of respiratory alkalosis?

The balance of the carbonic acid and bicarbonate ion levels are controlled by the: lungs and kidneys 8) Alkalosis increases irritability and spontaneous stimulation of nerves by: increasing the permeability of nerve membranes 9) What are the three mechanisms that control or compensate for serum pH? Buffer pairs in blood, change in kidney excretion rate, change in respiration rate 10) A specific defense for the body is: sensitized T lymphocytes 11) The inflammatory response is a nonspecific response to: any tissue injury 12) Chemical mediators released during the inflammatory response include: histamine and prostaglandins 13) Granulation tissue is best described as: highly vascular, very fragile, and very susceptible to infection 14) Edema associated with inflammation results directly from: increased fluid and protein in the interstitial compartment 15) The warmth and redness related to the inflammatory response results from: increased blood flow into the area [Show More]
