Looks respiratory acidosis, due to heavy breathing. Oxygen is high because he was on supplemental oxygen during the blood sample collection.
Next Steps
Potassium seems very low. ABG levels aren't reliable when it comes to sodium and potassium.
Health Tips
Repeat Na and K. Get a chest Xray if breathlessness persists. Need to rule out anxiety too as cause of shortness of breathlessness.
