gap
   Caused by loss of HCO3 or accumulation of acid
    (e.g. lactate) in the ECF

1. Calculate  anion gap
2. Check for respiratory compensation

3. Check for co-existing non-gap acidosis or
   metabolic alkalosis
4. If gap acidosis and no clear reason for gap,
   measure osmolar gap
   [anions] = [cations]

Cl + HCO3 + unmeas anions = Na + unmeas cations


Na - Cl- HCO3 = unmeas anions – unmeas cations




                 Normal anion gap = 12
   Most of anion gap made up of albumin

   Low albumin  smaller anion gap
       i.e., albumin 2g/dL  “normal gap” = 7


   For every 1g/dL below 4g/dL (nl albumin), add
    2.5 to the gap
                         or
   Adj gap = calc gap + 2.5 (4-meas albumin)
 Methanol (formic acid)
 Uremia (ESRD  impaired H+ secretion)
 DKA
 Paraldehyde
 INH, Inborn errors of metabolism
 Lactic acid
 Ethylene glycol (oxalic acid)
 Salicylates (salicylic acid)
 Circulatory shock
 Sepsis

 Thiamine deficiency

 Meds (metformin, nitroprusside, NRTIs, tylenol)

 Propylene glycol toxicity (used in ativan drips)

 Hepatic insufficiency

 Seizures

 Acute asthma attacks
   Metabolic acid-base disorder  almost immediate
    ventilatory response

Winter’s Formula:
     Expected pCO2 = 1.5 x [HCO3] + 8                 +/-   2

   Appropriate compensation  measured pCO2 = exp pCO2

   Respiratory alkalosis  measured pCO2 < exp pCO2

   Respiratory acidosis  measured pCO2 > exp pCO2
   Assess for non-gap metabolic acidosis or
    metabolic alkalosis
        ∆anion gap       meas AG - 12
            ∆HCO3                24 – meas HCO3
    ◦ <1 = non gap acidosis
    ◦ >1 = metabolic alkalosis
   Measured HCO3 + ∆gap = 24
    ◦ <24 = non gap acidosis
    ◦ >24 = metabolic alkalosis
   If no clear explanation for high anion gap
    metabolic acidosis, check osmolar gap

 Osm gap = measured osm – calc osm
 Calc osm = 2(Na) + Gluc + BUN
                        18   28

 Normal Osm gap = 10-15
 >25 suggests methanol or ethylene glycol

2.Check for respiratory compensation with Winter’s
formula:
    Expected pCO2 = 1.5 x [HCO3] + 8 +/- 2

3.GI loss verses renal loss of HCO3?
  Urine anion gap
   Urine Na + K – Cl

   Normal gap is zero or slightly positive

   Negative urine anion gap (-20 to -50) indicates GI
    losses (ne-GUT-ive)

  1. If pH, HCO3 and pCO2 all change in the same direction, it is a primary metabolic disorder Compensatory change will not completely correct the pH, just limits the severity of the change in PH
  2. Degree of elevated lactate directly correlates with mortality in shock used in ativan, valium, esmolol, NTG and dilantin drips In asthma, there is increased lactate produced by resp muscles)
  3. - (mediated by chemoreceptors in carotid body  inc or dec ventilation to affect pCO2)
  4. Can also be seen in AKA, DKA, lactic acidosis and CRF
  5. Loss of HCO3 is counterbalance by gain of Cl = normal anion gap Ureterostomy is fistula between ureter and GI tract Saline - saline  increased [Cl] in ECF  increased loss of HCO3 in urine
  6. Contraction alkalosis Kidneys increase Na reabsorption accompanied by HCO3 reabsorption increased aldo  increased H+ secretion Post-hypercapnia During respiratory acidosis, the kidneys reabsorb bicarbonate and secrete chloride to compensate for the acidosis. In the posthypercapnic state, urine chloride is high and can lead to chloride depletion. Once the respiratory acidosis is corrected, the kidneys cannot excrete the excess bicarbonate because of the low luminal chloride. Acids in infusions (lactate, acetate and citrate) converted to bicarbonate
