2 Δεκ 2016 · Metabolic alkalemia is characterized by an increase in bicarbonate concentration and base excess, an increase in pH, and a compensatory increase in carbon dioxide pressure. This article outlines indications for analysis, reference ranges, causes, and clinical signs of metabolic alkalosis.
Metabolic alkalosis is a very commonly encountered acid-base disorder that may be generated by a variety of exogenous and/or endogenous, pathophysiologic mechanisms. Multiple mechanisms are also responsible for the persistence, or maintenance, of metabolic alkalosis.
In most dogs and cats with metabolic alkalosis, a combination of renal sodium avidity and diminished chloride availability is responsible for perpetuation of the alkalosis. A potassium deficit and hypokalemia develop as the kidneys increase Na +-K + exchange in the distal nephron.
The mixed acid-base disorder of metabolic alkalosis with respiratory acidosis was the most common abnormality identified in both dogs and cats. Hypokalemia and hypochloremia were more common in animals with metabolic alkalosis compared to animals without metabolic alkalosis.
Metabolic alkalosis is typically associated with hypokalemia, and the most common causes of metabolic alkalosis are GI obstruction with loss of H+, K+, and Cl- in the vomitus, and furosemide administration.
