Acid-Base Disorders and the ABG 2
Corrected equations in ABG1 AG= NA - (HCO3+CL) cAG = AG + ((2,5(4 –albu)) GAP:gap ratio…..
BREIF  PREVIEW
Summary of the Approach to ABGs Check the pH Check the pCO2 Select the appropriate compensation formula Determine if compensation is appropriate Check the anion gap  AG=NA – (HCO3 + CL):12 If the anion gap is elevated, check the delta-delta G:G Ratio =Δ AG (12-AG)  HCO3 (24-HCO3) If a metabolic acidosis is present, check urine pH Generate a differential diagnosis
EXPECTED CHANGES IN  ACID-BASE DISORDERS  From: THE ICU BOOK - 2nd Ed. (1998) [Corrected]
Gap:gap ratio??
Osmolal gap = measured serum osmolality -  (2 NA + gluco8 + bun,8) Corrected osmolal gap =                             measured serum osmolality -  (2 NA + gluco8 + bun,8 + ETOH,6)

Case reportAcid-base disturbances A 42 year old diabetic female
A 42 year old diabetic female Has been on insulin since the age of 13 Presents with a 4 day history of dysuria which has progressed to severe right flank pain  Body temperature: 38.8C  WBC of 14 000 cells/L

Metabolic acidosis - anion gap  Is calculated as the difference between the sodium concentration and the sum of chloride and bicarbonate concentrations.
Increased anion-gap acidosis Ingestion of: Methanol, ethanol, ethylene glycol, aspirin, paraldehyde, salicylates, cyanide  Uremia or renal failure Lactic acidosis  Alcoholic ketoacidosis or diabetic ketoacidosis
A 23 year old man presents with confusion
A 23 year old man presents with confusion A 23 year old man presents with confusion.  He has had diabetes since age 12, and has been suffering from an intestinal flu for the last 24 hours.  He has not been eating much, has vague stomach pain, stopped taking his insulin, and has been vomiting.  His glucoseis high M 23 year old with confusion
Electrolytes and ABG Na+ 	130 mmol/L (136-145) Cl- 78 mmol (98-106) HCO3-	10 mmol/L  (22-26) pH 	7.20 (7.38-7.42) PaCO2	25 mm Hg (38-42) PaO2	68 mm Hg (90-105) M 23 year old with confusion
Interpretation of the ABG values PaO2 =68 mm Hg Expected PaO2 for a 22 year old man  PaO2 = 100 – (1/3 x 22)~ 93 mmHg  Patient is hypoxemic for age  M 23 year old with confusion
Ventilation Is hypoxia caused by hypoventilation or primary pulmonary problem? PaCO2  Hypoventilation = high PaCO2 The A-a 02 gradient (PA-a02) Hypoventilation = normal A-a 02 gradient  Primary pulmonary problem = PA-a02 increased PAO2  =  FiO2 x (PB – PH2O) – PaCO2/0.8 Expected A-a gradient < (Age/4) + 4
Equation for derivation of alveolar PO2 (PAO2) M 23 year old with confusion
The A-a 02 gradient (pA-a02) pAO2 = FiO2 x (PB – PH20) – PaCO2/R PA-a02 = PAO2 - PaO2=[150 – (1.25 x 25)] – 68 = 51 mmHg Expected A-a gradient < (Age/4) + 4 = 23/4 + 4 = 9.75 mmHg M 23 year old with confusion
Primary lung problem Hypoventilation can be excluded  Low PaCO2 High PA-a02  Hypoxia is related to primary lung defect ? aspiration in the confusional state

Case 1 A 21 y.o. male presents to the ER with confusion. Over the past several days his family reports that he had complained of nausea and anorexia. The PMH is negative.  On PE the BP is 122/60, HR 110, T 37.8, RR 28. Chest is clear. Abdomen is benign.  In the ED he begins to vomit and subsequent develops respiratory distress.  He is intubated, and one hour later the following labs are obtained:
Case 1 CORRECTED SODIUM=M.NA+((M.GL-100)00)*2,4 =159,12
Case 2 46 y.o. female with a history of alcohol abuse presents with progressive nausea, confusion and labored breathing over 5 days.  The past medical history is significant for chronic migraines and hypertension.  Medications include enalapril 10 mg daily, Premarin(HRT) 0.625 mg daily and DarvocetN-100(narcotic) as needed for pain.  Physical exam showed respiratory distress and postural hypotension.
