How do dogs avoid the effects of respiratory alkalosis?

Researchers found respiratory alkalosis in children with febrile seizures and metabolic acidosis in pediatric patients admitted for gastroenteritis.

Over the next several decades, the Sippy regimen resulted in renal failure, alkalosis, and hypercalcemia, mostly in men with peptic ulcer disease.

In other types of potassium derangement, the acid-base balance is usually disturbed, with metabolic alkalosis and metabolic acidosis often being present.

Breathing that is too slow or shallow causes respiratory acidosis, while breathing that is too rapid leads to hyperventilation, which can cause respiratory alkalosis.

Salicylic acid overdose can lead to salicylate intoxication, which often presents clinically in a state of metabolic acidosis with compensatory respiratory alkalosis.

However, GranuFlo and NaturaLyte contain higher levels of acetate compared to other competing products, and failing to take this into account can lead to excess bicarbonate or metabolic alkalosis.

- Abnormally high alkalinity (low hydrogen-ion concentration) of the blood and other body tissues
- Alkalosis refers to a condition reducing hydrogen ion concentration of arterial blood plasma (alkalemia). Generally alkalosis is said to occur when pH of the blood exceeds 7.45. The opposite condition is acidosis.
- A dangerous decrease in the normal acidity of the blood. There is too much base in the blood and body. This is a distinctly abnormal condition. It results from the accumulation of base or from the depletion of acid. The pH of the alkalotic body is above normal. ...
- A condition in which the alkaline content in the blood increases above normal limits
- An abnormal process or condition which would raise arterial pH if there were no secondary changes in response to the primary aetiological factor.
- A condition in which the blood and tissues contain an abnormally high level of alkali (usually too much bicarbonate), often caused by prolonged vomiting or hyperventilation. Symptoms include dizziness and jerky muscular contractions. Alkalosis can be detected in a urine test. ...
- Alkalosis is a condition resulting from increase of base or decrease of acid without decreasing base in the body fluids.
- A pathologic condition of decreased blood and tissue acidity.
- Dangerously decreased acidity of the blood, which can be caused by high altitudes, hyperventilation, and excessive vomiting. (Source : AMA)
