  2. Winters's formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winters's_formula

    Winters's formula, [1] named after R. W. Winters, [2] is a formula used to evaluate respiratory compensation when analyzing acid-base disorders in the presence of metabolic acidosis. [ 3 ] [ 4 ] It can be given as:

  3. Respiratory compensation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Respiratory_compensation

    The amount of respiratory compensation in metabolic acidosis can be estimated using Winters' formula. [2] Hyperventilation due to the compensation for metabolic acidosis persists for 24 to 48 hours after correction of the acidosis, and can lead to respiratory alkalosis. [3] This compensation process can occur within minutes. [4]

  4. Metabolic acidosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metabolic_acidosis

    Metabolic acidosis is a serious electrolyte disorder characterized by an imbalance in the body's acid-base balance.Metabolic acidosis has three main root causes: increased acid production, loss of bicarbonate, and a reduced ability of the kidneys to excrete excess acids. [5]

  5. Base excess - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base_excess

    metabolic acidosis, or respiratory alkalosis with renal compensation if too low (less than −2 mEq/L) Blood pH is determined by both a metabolic component, measured by base excess, and a respiratory component, measured by PaCO 2 (partial pressure of carbon dioxide). Often a disturbance in one triggers a partial compensation in the other.

  6. Delta ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delta_Ratio

    When this happens the numerator is large, the denominator is small, and the result is a delta ratio which is high (>2). This means a combined high anion gap metabolic acidosis and a pre-existing either respiratory acidosis or metabolic alkalosis (causing the high bicarbonate) – i.e. a mixed acid–base metabolic acidosis.

  8. Respiratory acidosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Respiratory_acidosis

    Chronic respiratory acidosis: HCO 3 − rises 3.5 mEq/L for each 10 mm Hg rise in PaCO 2. The expected change in pH with respiratory acidosis can be estimated with the following equations: [citation needed] Acute respiratory acidosis: Change in pH = 0.08 X ((40 − PaCO 2)/10) Chronic respiratory acidosis: Change in pH = 0.03 X ((40 − PaCO 2)/10)
