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 (in acute, severe alkalosis only): Muscle twitching due to decreased serum ionized calcium concentration caused by increased binding of calcium ions to albumin, hypokalemia as H+ ions shift out of cells and K+ moves into them.
Metabolic acidosis. This is the most frequent process. It is characterized by a non-volatile acid gain (mainly lactic acid) or a bicarbonate loss, or both, with an incomplete physiological respiratory compensation (PCO 2 or hypocapnia). This results in decreased pH.
Excessive alkali in the blood in dogs leads to a higher than normal PH level on a blood test. Veterinarians define this as metabolic alkalosis. In dogs, it is usually the result of excessive vomiting, but occasionally there may be other more complex reasons.
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.
3 Σεπ 2018 · This series of posts will look at how a metabolic alkalosis occurs, how the alkalosis is maintained, the clinical implications of a metabolic alkalosis, and approaches to treatment. For the discussion we will refer back to BGOTW #17.
