2019年3月8日 · Alkalosis occurs when your body has too many bases. It can occur due to decreased blood levels of carbon dioxide, which is an acid. It can also occur due to increased...
Alkalosis - Wikipedia
Alkalosis is the result of a process reducing hydrogen ion concentration of arterial blood plasma (alkalemia). In contrast to acidemia (serum pH 7.35 or lower), alkalemia occurs when the serum pH is higher than normal (7.45 or higher).

2019年11月6日 · Alkalosis is a pathophysiological condition characterized by the buildup of excess base or alkali in the body. Alkalosis results in an abnormally high serum pH (arterial pH greater than 7.45), termed alkalemia, forming one end of the spectrum of acid-base disorders.
Metabolic Alkalosis: Causes, Acid-Base & Electrolyte Imbalance
Metabolic alkalosis occurs when digestive issues disrupt the blood’s acid-base balance. It can also be due to conditions affecting the liver, kidneys or heart. Metabolic alkalosis is usually not life-threatening.
Alkalosis: MedlinePlus Medical Encyclopedia
2023年11月19日 · Alkalosis is a condition in which the body fluids have excess base (alkali). This is the opposite of excess acid (acidosis). The kidneys and lungs maintain the proper balance (proper pH level) of chemicals called acids and bases in the body.
Alkalosis - Hormonal and Metabolic Disorders - Merck Manual …
Alkalosis is excessive blood alkalinity (a measure of blood pH) caused by an overabundance of bicarbonate in the blood or a loss of acid from the blood (metabolic alkalosis), or by a low level of carbon dioxide in the blood that results from rapid or deep breathing (respiratory alkalosis).
Physiology, Metabolic Alkalosis - StatPearls - NCBI Bookshelf
2023年7月17日 · Metabolic alkalosis is defined as a disease state where the body’s pH is elevated to greater than 7.45 secondary to some metabolic process. Before going into details about pathology and this disease process, some background information about the physiological pH buffering process is important.
Metabolic Alkalosis Pathogenesis, Diagnosis, and Treatment: Core ...
Metabolic alkalosis is a widespread acid-base disturbance, especially in hospitalized patients. It is characterized by the primary elevation of serum bicarbonate and arterial pH, along with a compensatory increase in P co2 consequent to adaptive hypoventilation.

2024年7月4日 · Metabolic alkalosis may occur as a physiological response to chronic hypercapnic respiratory failure of any cause, most commonly: Severe COPD. OHS (obesity hypoventilation syndrome). Chronic respiratory muscle weakness. Diagnosis of a compensatory metabolic alkalosis is based on ABG/VBG which shows acidemia.
