Na+ - increase
K+ - increase (lack of excretion + transcellular shift due to met.acidosis)
HCO3- decrease, no new generation of HCO3 by the collecting ducts
BUN - increase

I thought Na+ would decrease...If the kidney is not working, there will be no reabsoprtion and it would be excreted... right??

I think it should be due to decreased GFR, or nothing filters, hence Increased Sodium retention, hence increase in Sodium!

it depends where the problem is, if the problem is in glomeruli and there is no filtration - you'll have Na increase, and if the problem is in tubuls - then you can't reapsorb filtered Na so Na will be decreased
