Comparative Study between Traditional Approach and Physico-Chemical Approach in Acid Base Disorders Interpretation in Critically Ill Patients

Abstract: Objective: The traditional approach for acid base interpretation is based on Handerson-Hasselbalch formula and includes Base Excess (BE), bicarbonate (HCO 3 ), albumin corrected anion gap. The Physicochemical approach is centered on the Carbon Dioxide tension (PCO 2 ), the strong ion difference (SID), strong ion gap (SIG) = SID apparent-SID effective and totally weak acids (Atot). The study aims to compare between the traditional approach and the physicochemical approach in acid base disorder interpretation. D… Show more
