Acid Base Flashcards
(44 cards)
Winters Formula for what? formula?
expected PCO2 in metabolic acidosis/1.5(Hco3) + 8+/-2
correct of AGAP for albumin?
every decrease in 1 of albumin (normal being 4), AGAP increases by 2
Delta GAP=
AG-12
Delta GAP + Serum hco3=
starting bicarb
starting bicarb range?
<22- >26, either additional non gap acidosis or additional metabolic alkalosis
AGAP causes?
methanol, propylene glycol, ethylene glycol, Pyroglutamic acid(tylenol), isoniazid
Type B lactic acidosis causes?
Linezolid, Propofol, Metformin
toxic alcohol that does not cause AGAP?
isopropyl alcohol
fomepizole MOA?
inhibits lactate dehydrogenase
3 causes of normal anion gap acidosis?
RTA, GI loss, ileal conduit
Urine anion GAP=
(Na+K)-Cl
negative Ugap, high Ucl=
GI tract loss
positive Ugap, low Ucl=
renal dysfunction(RTA)
Type 1 RTA location? normal mechanism distal tubule?
distal/normally excretes H+
Type 1 RTA urine pH?
> 5.5
Type 1 RTA potassium?
hypokalemia
other signs of RTA type 1?
stones, high urine pH, hypokalemia
Type 1 RTA treatment?
bicarbonate
Type II RTA location? mechanism?
PCT/cannot reabsorb Hco3
Type II RTA potassium?
hypokalemia like Type 1(secondary hyperaldosteronism)
Type II urine pH?
<5.5 bc the distal tubule is working and acidifying urine
Type II RTA treatment?
no point in giving bicarb because it wont be reasborbed. give diuretics to induce a contraction alkalosis
Type 1 RTA causes?
Sjogrens, SLE, hashimoto, ampho B, nephrocalcinosis
Type IV RTA mechanism?
Hypoaldosteronism
