Understanding Acid-Base Disorders
Dr. Gomez discusses acid-based disorders, highlighting the importance of maintaining pH levels between 7.35-7.45. Acid-base disorders are classified into respiratory or metabolic categories. Respiratory disorders involve breathing issues while metabolic disorders relate to kidney functions. The distinction between acidosis (pH < 7.35) and alkalosis (pH > 7.45) is crucial, with respiratory acidosis/alkalosis and metabolic acidosis/alkalosis being the major categories.
