Chasing the base deficit: hyperchloraemic acidosis following 0.9% saline fluid resuscitation.
Base deficit is a parameter often used to guide further treatment in acidotic children and is taken as a measure of how "sick" they are. Five children with septic shock are presented who had persisting base deficit after large volume resuscitation with 0.9% saline. Stewart's strong ion theory of acid-base balance is able to quantify the causes of metabolic acidosis and is used to show that our ...

متن کاملHyperchloraemic acidosis: another misnomer?
OBJECTIVE To review the term hyperchloraemic acidosis. DATA SOURCES Articles and reviews from peer reviewed journals on acid-base physiology. SUMMARY OF REVIEW The concept of hyperchloraemic acidosis is well established in medicine and regularly taught to medical students. Unfortunately, it is yet another medical misnomer. Hyperchloraemic acidosis is only likely to exist with normal plasma ...

50 mg rt-PA in reducing bleeding complications. Without accurate data of the bleeding complications in PTE thrombolytic therapy in China, we are currently unable to provide AR% for the Chinese population. Inspired by Dr Pena’s calculation, we performed additional analyses of the relative risk (RR) (I 50 mg/I 100 mg, the ratio of the bleeding incidences of the 50-mg rt-PA and 100-mg rt-PA groups...
متن کاملManagement of diabetic ketoacidosis
Although the mortality of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) has decreased substantially in the developed world, high mortality rates still prevail in South Africa, thus making this an important condition to recognise early and manage well. This review discusses the treatment of DKA, with emphasis on the controversial aspect of initial fluid replacement therapy. Current guidelines recommend the use of...
