A male baby born after a normal pregnancy appeared to be healthyuntil after the third day after his birth. He became lethargic,hypnotic (low muscle tone), his breathing was shallow and lead toapnea. First, he was hooked up to a mechanical respirator. A bloodsample was taken to the lab and found that his plasma ammonia levelwas 474 µmol/L.

As a healthcare provider, you have put the baby under peritonealdialysis until results of plasma amino acid levels and urineorganic acid tests are ordered. The baby went into a deep coma.

The lab tests revealed the following;

Plasma ammonia	474 µmol/L
Plasma glutamine	1560 µmol/L (normal value 350 – 700 µmol/L)
Plasma arginine	Undetectable
Plasma N-acetylglutamine (NAG)	High
Plasma PH level	7.9

Based on the above lab result;
