2 Acid base balance Basic facts repetition Regulation of A-B balance Pathophysiology of clinically important disorders

3 Acid-Base Balance Physiology - The ph of ECF is tightly regulated - Normal: 7: 35 7: 45 - Daily production of acid :12000meq - Removal lung (most) - kidney (small,50-100meq/day)but restore buffer capacity (HCO3) - Respiratory or renal disfunction breakdown in process acid-base disorders

4 Organs involved in the regulation of A-B-balance Equilibrium with plasma High buffer capacity Haemoglobin main buffer for CO 2 Excretion of CO 2 by alveolar ventilation: minimally 12,000 mmol/day Reabsorption of filtered bicarbonate: 4,000 to 5,000 mmol/day Excretion of the fixed acids (acid anion and associated H + ): about 100 mmol/day

5 Buffer Systems in the Body Bicarbonate: most important ECF buffer H 2 O + CO 2 H 2 CO 3 H + + HCO - 3 Phosphate: important ICF and renal tubular buffer HPO H + H 2 PO - 4 Ammonia: important renal tubular buffer NH 3 + H + NH + 4 Proteins: important ICF and ECF buffers Largest buffer store in the body Albumins and globulins, such as Hb

6 Respiratory System Second line of defense again changes in ph Acts at a moderate speed Regulates ph by controlling rate of CO 2 removal

7 Kidneys Third line of defense against change in hydrogen ion concentration Kidneys require hours to days to compensate forchanges in body-fluid ph Control ph of body fluids by adjusting H + excretion HCO 3 - excretion/ reabsorption Ammonia secretion

8 -addition of acid [H + ] &ph -PH< PH<7.35= [H + ] =blood is acidotic or acidemic -PH> PH>7.45=[H + ] =blood is alkalemic or alkalotic

9 NORMAL VALUES Using a normal arterial PCO2 of 40 mm Hg and a normal serum [HCO3 - ] concentration of 24 meq/l, the normal [H + ] in arterial blood is 24 (40/24) = 40 neq / L

11 Effect of PH imbalance Majority of body functions optimally at or near ph of 7.40 Acidosis CNS depression,lethargy,disorientation, coma Alkalosis over exitability of CNS peripheral nerves,tetany, muscular spasms of extremities,face body,respiratory failure Significant ph alteration Heart contractility

12 PaCO2 Normal :35-45mmHg paco2 is respiratory componet of acid base status regulation: 1) co2 production rate 2) Alveolar ventilation fever or exercise co2 production VA normal paco2 Paco2 is the most reliable index of VE(minute volume) PaCO2 [H + ] Respiratory Acidosis Paco2 [H + ] = Respiratory Alkalosis

13 Arterial Hco3 Normal = meq/ L Metabolic component of Acid Base status Regulation by renal system Hco3 PH =Metabolic Alkalosis Hco3 PH =Metabolic Acidosis Hco3 may change in response to primary change of paco2 (12 24 hr ) Co2 + H2O H2co3 H + + Hco3 Paco2 Hco3 Paco2 Hco3

14 Base Excess & Base deficit Normal : 2mEq/L BE + BE Be indicate pure metabolic component

15 Metabolic component The base deficit (BD) is calculated to estimate the amount of excess metabolic acid. BD How much alkali needs to be added to return the ph to 7.40 if the PCO 2 is 40. ACoRN

16 Acid Base disorders 1 )Simple disorder: Respiratory Acidosis Respiratory Alkalosis Metabolic Acidosis Metabolic Alkalosis 2 ) Mixed disorders

17 Respiratory Acidosis -Alveolar Ventilation relative to co2 production Paco2 (paco2 > 45 mmhg ) or higher than expected level of compensation Ethiology :1) Respiratory : *Acute upper Airway obstruction *sever diffuse airway obstruction (Acute or chronic) * Massive pulmonary edema 2) Nonrespiratory: * Drug overdose *Spinal cord trauma *Neuromuscular disease *Head trauma *trauma to thoracic cage

18 Compensation of Respiratory Acidosis Acute :ph paco2 Hco3 BE Partial compensation : PH paco2 Hco3 BE completely compensated :ph normal up to 7.39 paco2 HCO3 BE Acute Respiratory Acidosis:10 15mmHg paco2 1mEq/L Hco3 Chronic Respiratory Acidosis:10mmhg paco2 4mEq/L Hco3

19 19

20 Clinical Effect of Respiratory Acidosis Acute:CNS:Headache,sleepy,lethargy,confusion, semiconciousness,coma(paco2>70 mmhg) But chronic :higher level of paco2 may be well tolerated Hypoxemia may presented CVS : 1)paco2 vasodilution+co warm flushed skin +bounding pulse 2) Arrhytmias 3)Cerebral vasodilation ICP,Retinal venous distention, pupilledema & headache Hco3 (in compensation of Respiratory Acidosis) Cl level

21 Respiratory Alkalosis Paco2 <35mmHg Alveolar Ventilation Relation to co2 Production Ethiology :Pain, Hypoxemia(pao2<55-60mmHg), Acidosis, Anexity, Mechanical ventilation ph, paco2 and normal Hco3 & BE=uncompensated R Alkalosis ph 7.45, paco2, Hco3, BE =partial compensation R Alkalosis ph in normal range, paco2, Hco3, BE =Full compensated R Alkalosis

23 Hco3 Metabolic Acidosis BE Buffers : production or loss H + Acid) : load H + or Excretion Loss of Hco3 : diarrhea, renal disease Metabolic Acid production : Keto acidosis, lactic acidosis,certain toxins(metanol) Post hypocapnia disorder ANION GAP:Na (Cl +Hco3 ) Normal10-12mEq/L. With K =12 15mEq/L Normal Anion gap : HCL, diarrhea, RTA, (type 2, proximal) High Anion gap :Renal Failure, lactic acidosis, keto acidosis

24 24

25 Metabolic Alkalosis -Hco3 > Normal -Accumolation of Hco3 or H loss Ethiology: Hypokalemia or hypochloremi *Nasogastric suction *persistent vomiting *post hypercapnia Disorder *Diuretic therapy *Steroid therapy *Excessive Adminstration of sodium bicarbonat

26 Compensation of M Alkalosid Hypoventilation paco2 (Not in awake paients) Uncompensated M Alkalosis :Hco3 BE PH & Normal paco2 Partial compensated: ph is not yet normal, Hco3 BE Paco2>45mmHg Complet compensation : paco2 enough to PH Normal
