How do kidneys maintain acid–base balance?
3️⃣ key functions:
🧪 Reclaim filtered bicarb
⬆️ H⁺ secretion
➕ Generate new bicarb

ABG is the gold standard, but arterial sticks hurt & carry risks. A Kidney360 study (5,419 paired samples) derived formulas to estimate arterial pH, pCO₂ & HCO₃⁻ from VBG—meeting acceptable clinical expectations. #Nephrology #CriticalCare #AcidBase

Step 4: anion gap🤯(5/6)
Anion gap= Na+ - (Cl- + HCO3-)
Normal range= 8-12
High anion gap acidosis causes: Lactate, DKA/HHS, renal failure, toxins (methanol, salicylates)
Normal anion gap acidosis causes: Diarrhoea, renal tubular acidosis, Addison’s

Step 2: determine the main problem🔎(3/6)
Look at the CO2 and the HCO3- to figure out if the issue is respiratory or metabolic.
CO2 high= respiratory acidosis
CO2 low= respiratory alkalosis
HCO3- high= metabolic alkalosis
HCO3- low= metabolic acidosis
#medschool #medicaleducation #abg #acidbase
Step 1: what is the pH?🤯(2/6)
The most important thing to start with is finding out whether the pH is acidotic, alkalotic, or normal.
pH<7.35 is acidotic
pH>7.45 is alkalotic
7.35<pH<7.45 is normal, BUT that doesn’t mean everything is actually normal.

Understanding Acid–Base Made Simple: A Crash Guide for Medical Students🧪
Acid-base disorders may look intimidating, but every case follows the same logic.
Here’s a simple, practical approach that will save you in exams and on the wards!(1/6)

My colleague Marko Jeran turned me onto this electrolysis demonstration using our cabbage indicator.

Could a urine acid/base score accounting for both the demand and capacity for acid excretion better predict CKD progression? #kidneydisease #acidbase
This is probably most digestible Acid-Base Disorder algorithm I have come across. Great for providing teaching to learners and handy pocket reference. #MedSky #IMsky #internalmedicine #acidbase

My talk at #ApExPathshala on #AcidBase had some new (to me information) on urine anion gap. I want to share it but to get there we need to discuss renal acid handling. #Tweetorial #Physiology #Electrolytes 1/11

1) Solve acid base qus.
2) Intro nomogram
3) Solve with nomogram
4) Intro mixed & partially compensated disorders
5) Intro 'rules'. Solve without nomogram
6) Test knowledge on metabolic acidoses
7) Create quick eval of acidoses
