●The pH is 7.491 which is elevated (7.36_7.44).This happens in alkalosis
The CO2 is 27.6 which is decreased (36_44) .This indicates the patient has some respiratory issue
The HCO3 is20.6 which is decreased (22_26) This happens when the acid based balance is partially compensated
The ABG interpretation reveals the patient has Respiratory Alkalosis (Partly compensated)
● The finding indicate that the patient may have a COPD exacerbation or respiratory alkalosis or Heart failure in relation to the symptoms like tachypnea,acid base imbalance, dyspnea,wheezing ,bilateral bronchi,decreased saturation, hypotension .
The BMI shows that the patient is morbidly obese
