Extreme metabolic alkalosis with fludrocortisone therapy.
We present an unusual case of extreme metabolic alkalosis resulting from severe hypokalaemia caused by unmonitored fludrocortisone therapy. Biochemical aspects of the disorder are discussed, as is the successful treatment with diuretics and potassium replacement. Some dangers of this therapy and necessary precautions are emphasized.
متن کاملMetabolic alkalosis in coliform mastitis.
Values of blood gas, serum chloride, and potassium were tabulated for 21 dairy cows with coliform mastitis. Severe cases showed marked clinical signs such as loss of appetite and depression of digestive tract motility, and metabolic alkalosis such as an increase in blood pH, hypochloremia and hypokalemia compared with normal and mild cases (p < 0.01). The results showed that metabolic alkalosis...
متن کاملTHE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN ARTERIAL Pco, A N D HYDROGEN ION CONCENTRATION IN CHRONIC METABOLIC ACIDOSIS A N D ALKALOSIS
In 1917 J. P. Peters first recognized that the ventilatory response to metabolic acidosis could be monitored by following the changes in the alveolar carbon dioxide partial pressure. In addition he showed that in stable states of acidosis there was a close relationship between alveolar Pco, and the CO, combining power of the blood. More recently technical refinements have facilitated measuremen...
متن کاملApproach to metabolic alkalosis.
Metabolic alkalosis is a common disorder, accounting for half of all acid-base disturbances in hospitalized patients. It is the result of an increase in bicarbonate production, a decrease in bicarbonate excretion, or a loss of hydrogen ions. Most causes of metabolic alkalosis can be divided into 4 categories: chloride depletion alkalosis, mineralocorticoid excess syndromes, apparent mineralocor...
متن کاملMetabolic alkalosis and myoclonus.
This is the first case reported of vomiting-induced metabolic alkalosis associated with myoclonus. The report describes an unusual presentation of myoclonus secondary to acid-base disturbance caused by recreational drug-induced vomiting. The severe derangement of hyponatraemia, hypokalaemia, and alkalosis appears to have been reasonably well tolerated due to the gradual onset and relatively lon...
