Objective: Metabolic acidosis (MA) is the most frequent acid-base disorder in the pediatric
intensive care unit (PICU). The aim of this study is to determine the frequency of MA in …

Background: Acid-base disorders are common in critically ill patients and contribute
significantly to mortality and morbidity. Metabolic acidosis (MA) can be measured by pH …

Objective: We aimed to measure the incidence, prevalence, characteristics and outcomes of
intensive care unit (ICU) patients with early (first 24 hours) metabolic acidosis (MA) …

Hypothesis. Mortality in children with shock is more closely related to the nature, rather than
the magnitude (base deficit/excess), of a metabolic acidosis. Objective. To examine the …

Background: Metabolic acidosis (MA) is a common pathologic process with fatal
consequences in critically ill (CI) patients. The more the severity of acidosis the more …

Background: The human organs and tissues function under a tightly controlled pH in the
range of 7.35 to7. 45. Depending on the degree of deviation of pH outside this narrow range …

Objective: Metabolic acidosis often occurs in the paediatric intensive care unit (PICU).
Although sodium bicarbonate (SB) has been widely used in paediatrics, data on the effect of …

Background: Outcomes of metabolic acidosis remain unsure and needs to be explored
deeply. This article presents a rational approach to diagnosis and management of metabolic …

We evaluated the independent determinants and outcome of metabolic acidosis in diarrheal
children. Children under 5 years of age admitted with diarrhea and severe respiratory …
