Hyperventilation

Secondary response:



  • Bicarb generation
  • Cellular buffering & Renal
  • Hepatic failure
    Distress

    Pregnancy

    Pain

    Anxiety

    Hypoxemia

    CNS lesions
    Metabolic

    Gain of bicarb or loss of H+

    Secondary response:


  • Decreased ventilation
  • Cl- resistant

    Stimulates Aldo

    Severe hypokalemia

    RAAS, Adrenal tumors

    Cl- sensitive (volume depleters)

    Vomiting

    Loop, Thiazide Diuretics

    Decreased ECV

    Increased RAAS

    Increased Aldo

    Decreased H+, K+

    Compensatory response to respiratory acidosis

    Causes

    Miscellaneous

    Obesity

    Hypoventilation

    Pulmonary

    Parenchyma

    Neuromuscular

    Central

    Anesthetics

    Infection

    Stroke

    Compensatory Rate

    4 Bicarb per 10 pCO2

    Chronic Respiratory Acidosis (Single Disorder)

    1 Bicarb per 10 pCO2

    Compensation not as good: needs to regenerate bicarb

    Acute Respiratory Acidosis (Single Disorder)

    < 35

    Compensatory response to metabolic acidosis

    Uremia

    Typically doesn't get that high because we dialyze before they get that sick.

    GFR < 15-20

    Rx: Dialyze

    Hyperchloremic

    Urine anion gap

    > -20

    Renal

    RTA of renal insufficiency

    GFR usu. >15 ml/min

    Hyperkalemic

    Type 4 RTA

    Hyporeninemic, hypoaldosteronemic distal RTA

    Most common seen

    Diabetic patients

    You can generate a Type 4 RTA w/ drugs that limit Aldo fx on kidney





  • ACE
  • ARB
  • Aldo antagonists


  • Kidney for some reason doesn't respond to aldosterone

    OR aldosterone effects on kidneys are being blocked (drugs)

    Hypokalemic

    NH4CL Admin.

    No change in Urine pH

    Classical distal RTA

    Type 1 (only because it was discovered first)

    Proton back leak distally



  • Amphotericin B (makes holes)

  • K+ leaks out (hypokalemic) to compensate

    Urine pH < 5

    Proximal RTA

    Rare (Paraproteinemias --> Excessive amt of a single monoclonal gammaglobulin in the blood)

  • Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia
  • Amyloidosis
  • Multiple myeloma

  • Abnormal protein damages the proximal tubule

    Iatrogenic


  • CA inhibitors (Acetazolamide)
  • Gentamicin

  • Part of generalized disorder of proximal tubular function known as --> Fanconi syndrome


  • Self-limiting

  • Problem w/ Bicarb reabsorption --> Serum bicarb load delivered to kidney reduces, so kidney can handle new steady state due to distal effects

  • Aldosterone action leads to hypokalemia




    HCO3 not reabsorbed --> Na+ travels with it --> juxtaglomerular apparatus senses sodium load passing through --> secretes renin --> Angiotensinogen to Angiotensin I (by renin)--> AgI to AgII (by ACE) --> Vasoconstriction + Aldosterone stimulation --> sodium intake distally, potassium excreted --> hypokalemia

  • < -20
