- - - - Buildup of PaCO2 greater than 50 mmHg in the blood, this rises as ventilation decreases below 4-6L/min
        
        Decreased alveolar ventilation - reduction in minute ventilation
        
        Acute respiratory failure: pH <7.3, tissues in body not getting enough oxygen for optimal function

        Renal compensation leads to buildup of bicarbonate to increase blood pH
        
        Compensated Respiratory Acidosis
        
        metabolic demands for oxygen and body system acid-base stabilization are not maintained→ creating a ventilation-perfusion mismatch.
