|
1. Primary disturbance of metabolic alkalosis
2. Compensatory mechanism |
1. increased HCO3-
2. hypoventilation |
|
|
1. How do you calculate anion gap?
2. NL range |
1. Na - (Cl + HCO3)
2. 8 - 12 |
|
|
10 causes of increased anion gap metabolic acidosis*
|
Methanol
Uremia DM ketoacidosis Paraldehyde/Phenformin Iron tablets/INH Lactic acidosis Ethylene glycol Salicylates |
M
U D P, P I, I L E S |
|
4 causes of NL anion gap metabolic acidosis
|
Diarrhea
Glue sniffing Renal tubular acidosis hyperchloremia |
|
|
Contrast causes of:
1. type 1 RTA 2. type 2 RTA 3. type 4 RTA |
1. (distal) can't excrete H+, causes hypokalemia
2. (proximal) can't reabsorb HCO3-, hypokalemia 3. decreased response/amount of aldosterone, no NH3 excreted into urine, hyperkalemia |
|
|
3 ways to generate metabolic alkalosis
|
1. loss of H+ from ECF
2. add HCO3- to ECF 3. lose fluid w/ Cl > HCO3 (contraction alkalosis) |
|
|
3 mechs for renal loss of Cl-
|
1. diuretics
2. Bartter's syndrome: defective Na-K-2Cl (endogenous loop diuretic) 3. Gitelman's syndrome: defective Na-Cl cotransporter (endogenous thiazide) |
