چکیده

This report attempts to frame the debate about clinical administration of sodium bicarbonate in the setting of lactic acidosis in terms of simple questions. Specifically, we address why we develop lactic acidosis in some circumstances, how acute lactic acidosis impairs cardiovascular function and why sodium bicarbonate may have deleterious effects which limit its utility. We also attempt to explore treatment alternatives to sodium bicarbonate

Sustained low-efficiency dialysis as a treatment modality in a patient with lymphoma-associated lactic acidosis.

Lactic acidosis is a potentially life-threatening metabolic disorder, initiated by an imbalance between lactic acid production and utilization. The only effective treatment is reversal of the cause of the disordered lactic acid metabolism [1]. Intravenous bicarbonate (HCO3 ) administration is often used as an interim treatment to attempt to ameliorate the effects of the acidosis, particularly v...

Attainment and maintenance of normal stature with alkali therapy in infants and children with classic renal tubular acidosis.

Growth was evaluated in a group of 10 infants and children with familial or idiopathic classic renal tubular acidosis in whom alkali therapy was initiated at ages ranging from 8 days to 9.5 yr and administered at dosage schedules documented to sustain correction of acidosis in at least four prolonged observation periods on the Pediatric Clinical Research Ward. When alkali therapy was begun, six...

The Authors Reply: Alkali Therapy in Patients with Metabolic Acidosis

The Authors Reply: Severe metabolic acidosis can generate detremental clinical effect such as cardiovascular depression and central nervous system dysfunction. It also disturbe important key enzymes’ activity. The effect of bocarbonate therapy aimed at correcting the pH, however, is controversial. Bicarbonate therapy produced CO2 and paradoxically lower the intracellular pH and cerebrospinal fl...

Effect of vitamin D3 and guanidinoacetic acid on performance, some physiological parameters, carcass characteristics and behavior of broilers affected by lactic acidosis

Extended Abstract Introduction and objectives: Lactic acidosis occurs as a result of hypoxia and rapid growth of broilers and can be considered as a physiological stress. In two experiments, the effect of extra nutritional levels of vitamin D3 and guanidinoacetic acid was investigated on performance, relative weight of organs, some physiological and behavioral parameters of broiler chicks unde...
