The acid-base goal of intermittent hemodialysis is to replenish buffers consumed by
endogenous acid production and expansion acidosis in the period between treatments. The …

Acetate is used as the source of bicarbonate during hemodialysis. The purpose of the

Forty studies of acid-base balance during intermittent peritoneal dialysis (IPD) and during
continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) were performed on 20 patients who were …

The type of metabolic acidosis in patients with chronic renal failure was studied
prospectively over a three-month period in 32 stable patients on chronic hemodialysis using …

The pattern of respiratory compensation in chronic uremic acidosis has been delineated on
the basis of an analysis of 145 determinations of the arterial acid base status of 19 patients …

The influence of dialysate bicarbonate concentration on ionized plasma calcium as well as
on haemodynamics have been studied prospectively. In 3 consecutive weeks, 7 chronic …

Ingested foodstuffs are metabolized in the body liberating hydrogen ions, a process called
