To study an alteration in biochemical parameters in acute and chronic phase of respiratory acidosis and alkalosis
Journal Title: International Journal of Clinical Biochemistry and Research - Year 2016, Vol 3, Issue 3
Abstract
Introduction: The primary abnormality in respiratory acidosis is retention of CO2 (increased H2CO3) due to impaired alveolar ventilation resulting in a rise in pCO2 causing acidemia. However, respiratory alkalosis occurs when there is decrease in H2CO3 concentration. A fall in pCO2, reduces the ratio of carbonic acid to bicarbonate resulting in alkalemia. Aim: To study variations in biochemical parameters in respect to respiratory acidosis and alkalosis. Material and Methods: The biochemical parameters of respiratory acidosis and alkalosis like blood pH, concentration of CO2, pO2, pCO2, level of HCO3 Results: The studied components of respiratory acidosis and alkalosis were found to be highly significant in chronic conditions of respiratory acidosis and alkalosis (p<0.01) than acute condition of respiratory failure when compared with the healthy controls. Conclusion: In this study, we observed that there is marked increase in product of metabolism in acute and chronic phase of respiratory syndrome when compared with the healthy controls.
