A nurse is caring for a client who has the following arterial blood gas results: HCO3 18 mEq, PaCO2 28 mm Hg, and pH 7.30. The nurse recognizes the client is experiencing which of the following acid-base imbalances?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Metabolic acidosis. In this case, the low HCO3 and low pH indicate an acid-base imbalance with metabolic origin. The reduced HCO3 indicates metabolic acidosis.
