Answer to Question 1

b

Answer to Question 2

Laboratory values in acute respiratory failure will indicate a decreased pH and an elevated pCO2 . Bicarbonate levels will be slightly elevated if renal compensation has begun. Compensatory mechanisms or secondary responses allow the pH to remain normal but serum bicarbonate and arterial pCO2 are elevated. Serum electrolytes will show an increase in serum Ca+, K+, and possibly Cl- due to changes in renal controls.
