incorrect
11. Determined by equilibrating a blood sample in the laboratory to a PCO2 of 40 mmHg at standard body temperature Celsius and recording the amount of acid or base needed to titrate 1L of blood to a pH of 7.40. -Egan, Chapter 12, page 294.




incorrect
12. Low PaCO2, low HCO3-, and alkalitic pH not in the normal range. -Egan, Chapter 12, page 287.




incorrect
13. The blood buffer base is the sum of bicarbonate and nonbicarbonate bases in the mmol/L of blood. -Egan, Chapter 12, page 273
