Module 3 Part 2: Acid/Base Imbalances

A patient with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus may experience increased ketone levels due to

• Excessive glucose uptake resulting in increased glycolysis

• Insulin insensitivity resulting in reduced glucose uptake

• Decreased glucose uptake from a lack of insulin resulting in a fasting state

• Excessive insulin production and overall decrease in blood glucose

Normal or High Anion Gap?

• Normal

• High

What acid-base imbalance does this patient have?

• Compensated metabolic acidosis

• Uncompensated metabolic acidosis

• Compensated respiratory acidosis

• Uncompensated respiratory acidosis
