Difference between Metabolic Acidosis and Respiratory Acidosis
The upcoming discussion will update you about the difference between Metabolic Acidosis and Respirator Acidosis. Difference # Metabolic Acidosis: 1. Bicarbonate (HCO3-) deficit. 2. pH lowered. 3. Respiratory-low pH stimulates respiratory centre causing decrease in [H2CO3]. 4. Urinary pH-acidic. 5. Abnormal increase in anions due to endogenous production of acid ions, ingestion of acidifying salts, and renal insufficiency. 6. Abnormal [...]
