Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a patient who has acute kidney injury. The patient's ABGs are: pH: 7.26, PaCO2: 30 mm Hg, HCO3: 14 mEq/L. Which of the following acid-base imbalances should the nurse identify the patient is experiencing?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Low pH (7.26), low HCO3 (14 mEq/L), and low PaCO2 (30 mm Hg) indicate metabolic acidosis, common in kidney injury due to acid accumulation. Other imbalances do not match these values.
