The main cause of respiratory alkalosis is tachypnea (fast respiratory rate). Conditions that can lead to a fast heart rate include: high fever, aspirin toxicity, excessive mechanical ventilation, anxiety and more.

Signs and symptoms of respiratory alkalosis include fast respiratory rate, ECG changes related to hypocalcemia and hypokalemia, and increased heart rate.

Arterial blood gas results can be the following for respiratory alkalosis: pH greater than 7.45, PaCO2 less than 35 mmHg, and the HCO3- (bicarbonate) can be normal or less than 22 mEq/L (normal 22-26).

Nursing interventions for respiratory alkalosis are in the video and includes the mnemonic REST.
