Previous experience with the severe metabolic acidosis exhibited by our patients has been limited. Walker et al. 8–10 collected 3 such cases and McGavack 16 alluded to a fourth.

The patient had severe anion gap metabolic acidosis, with a serum anion gap of 44 mmol/l (normal range 10–14 mmol/l). He was almost certainly volume depleted on admission, since his hematocrit ...

October 23, 2006 (Las Vegas) -- Sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) may be a result of shock, metabolic acidosis, and loss of homeostasis, according to findings presented here at the annual ...

DKA and HHS are characterized by insulinopaenia and severe hyperglycaemia; clinically, these two conditions differ only by the degree of dehydration and the severity of metabolic acidosis.

Two cases of severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease with marked hypercarbia, mental confusion and cerebrospinal-fluid acidosis in the face of mild arterial alkalosis are presented below.

The results of this study suggest that a low bicarbonate may only be associated with poor outcomes if the blood pH is also low, indicating severe metabolic acidosis.” ...

A group of scientists from China has recently developed an antacid nanoantidote that can effectively ameliorate blood acidosis induced by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV ...

The use of sodium bicarbonate in patients suffering from severe metabolic acidosis and lactic acidosis seems to make sense; it can't possibly be healthy to have a very low pH, and it would seem ...

The current policy for treating metabolic acidosis may be suboptimal due to a lack of consideration of the impact of pH, a study suggests.
