Range of Arterial pH Values

[Guest guest]

Blood pH:

The bloodstream is the most critically buffered system of the entire body, far

more sensitive than any other. Arterial and venous blood must maintain a

slightly alkaline pH: arterial blood pH = 7.41 and venous blood pH = 7.36.

Because the normal pH of arterial blood is 7.41, a person is considered to have

acidosis when the pH of blood falls below this value and to have alkalosis when

the pH rises above 7.41.

Figure 3.

Range of Arterial pH Values

ACIDOSIS

pH = 1 to 7.40

NEUTRAL

pH = 7.41

ALKALOSIS

pH = 7.42 to 14.0
