Notice how placing the values on the map
pretty much tells you the interpretation
pH = 7.24 | CO2 = 37 | HCO3 = 16 |
The pH of 7.24 is in the acidosis region, as is the HCO3 of 16. The CO2 of 37 is normal. This tells us that the acidosis is not respiratory, but metabolic in origin : A METABOLIC ACIDOSIS
