    The document contains instructions for a nursing student to interpret 12 sets of arterial blood gas (ABG) results. Each set includes the pH, PCO2 and HCO3 levels. The student is asked to analyze each set of results using four steps: note if the pH, PCO2 and HCO3 levels are normal or abnormal, determine if it's respiratory or metabolic, and state if it's acidotic or alkalotic. The student provides the interpretation for each ABG set according to the instructions.
