1. Primary disturbance of metabolic acidosis
2. Compensatory mechanism
1. decreased HCO3-

2. hyperventilation
1. Primary disturbance of metabolic alkalosis
2. Compensatory mechanism
1. increased HCO3-

2. hypoventilation
1. How do you calculate anion gap?

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)
