Aims & Objectives: Metabolic Acidosis (MA) is the most frequent acid–base disorder in the
Paediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU). The aim of this study is to determine the frequency …

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 …

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 …

Acid–base disturbances are common occurrence in acute care setting, their rapid
assessment and analysis are important, and pH of 6.8–7.8 is compatible with life. The …

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 …

Objective: To study acid–base imbalance in common pediatric diseases (such as sepsis,
bronchopneumonia, diarrhea, birth-asphyxia etc.) in neonates. Design and Setting: An …

Introduction Anion gap (AG) metabolic acidosis is common in critically ill patients. The
relationship between initial AG at the time of admission to the medical intensive care unit …

Background: Acid base disorders represents the pathogenesis and gravity of the underlying
disease which accounts for morbidity and mortality rates. A previous study reported that …

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 …
