● Metabolic alkalosis.
The primary abnormality in metabolic alkalosis is an increase in
HCO3- concentration.
This may occur due to excessive vomiting or an excessive intake of
sodium bicarbonate for therapeutic purpose.
Metabolic alkalosis is commonly associated with low K+
concentration.
in severe K+ deficiency , H+ ions are retained inside the cells to
replace missing K+ ions.
In the renal tubular cells , H+ ions are exchanged with the
reabsorbed Na+ .
The respiratory mechanism initiates the compensation by
hypoventilation to retain CO2 ( hence H2CO3 increase) . This is
slowly taken over by renal mechanism which excretes more HCO3- and
retain H+.
Add Answer to:
Prolonged vomiting can lead to metabolic alkalosis from the loss of HCl. How does the body normally reabsorb the la...
