Base on the case study below explain the causes of the patients result in ABG. Leptospirosis Case Study: Diego, 54-year-old male came in due to body pains. 2 days PTA, patient had body malaise with associated bilateral lower extremity pain, abdominal pain, epigastric burning 5/10 radiating to chest, continuous, undocumented fever, LBM of 10 episodes.
