In this episode, we break down how to differentiate between respiratory acidosis, respiratory alkalosis, metabolic acidosis, and metabolic alkalosis. NOTE: At 32m 52s, a post production glitch forced the audio to be skipped and replaced with it stating metabolic acidosis as the answer, even though earlier, metabolic acidosis is eliminated as an answer choice. In fact the audio should have stated metabolic alkalosis.  For free practice questions, rationales, and submission of episode requests, follow on Instagram @rdexampodcast and facebook RD Exam Podcast.
