Acid Base Disorders


Metabolic acidosis caused by high levels of lactic acid can severely impair cardiovascular function and be a barrier to successful resuscitation.

Venous blood gas analysis will provide you with information on pH, bicarbonate levels, PCO2, and venous oxygen saturation. Taking repeated samples will allow you to monitor the progression of the acidosis and assess the effectiveness of your therapy.

Metabolic acidosis can be complicated by poor ventilation which prevents carbon dioxide excretion and causes respiratory acidosis so the respiratory system cannot compensate for the metabolic element. Resolving perfusion is the key to correcting the acidosis.
