Sources of acids:
Volatile acid
CO2 + H2O H2CO3 H+ + HCO3
Fixed acids
• Organic and inorganic source
– Lactic acid, ketones, Sulfuric and phosphoric acid

Hepatic metabolism
Chemical Buffers
• The body uses pH buffers in the blood to guard
against sudden changes in acidity
• A pH buffer works chemically to minimize
changes in the pH of a solution

RESPIRATORY COMPONENT METABOLIC COMPONENT
Metabolic Alkalosis
Causes
• Administration of excess HCO3-
• Increased secretion of H+ by kidney and gut
• Sudden volume contraction which leads to increased Na+ retention.This
leads to water and HCO3- to follow the Na+

40 – 30 = 10 0.10
Determining the predicted
“Respiratory pH”
60 - 40 = 20 X ½ =10 = 0.10
40 - 30 = 10 0.10
76 - 40 = 36 X ½ = 18 0.18
90 - 40 = 50 X ½ = 25 0.25
40 – 18 = 22 0.22
RULE
90 - 40 = 50 X ½ = 0.25
76 - 40 = 36 X ½ = 0.18
