A 30-year-old male presents to the emergency department with difficulty breathing and wheezing after exposure to pollen. His oxygen saturation is 92% on room air, and he is using accessory muscles to breathe. Arterial blood gas reveals mild hypoxemia. Pulmonary function tests show reduced airflow. Which of the following is the most likely cause of his low ventilation-perfusion (V/Q) ratio?

Four hours after mechanical ventilation is initiated, a patient’s arterial blood gas (ABG) results include a pH of 7.51, PaO2 of 88 mm Hg, PaCO2 of 26 mm Hg, and HCO3− of 23 mEq/L (23 mmol/L). What change should the nurse anticipate to the ventilator settings to fix the acid-base imbalance?
