RESUMO

La acidosis metabólica se ha convertido en un problema muy serio, tanto en las áreas críticas, como de medicina interna y emergencias, sobre todo por la innumerable cantidad de patologías que la presentan; que ha encaminado a muchos profesionales a usar el bicarbonato de Na (NaHCO3-), que definitivamente tiene un efecto en el ascenso del pH y el HCO3-, asociado a un sosiego inverosímil del profesional médico y probablemente a un escaso beneficio por parte de los pacientes; este estudio trata de explicar en forma concisa a la etiología de la acidosis metabólica y la real indicación de esta droga, que hasta el momento podría tener más perjuicios que beneficios.

Metabolic acidosis has become a very serious problem, both in critical areas, such as internal medicine and emergencies, especially due to the innumerable number of pathologies that present it; which has led many professionals to use Na bicarbonate (NaHCO3-), which definitely has an effect on the rise in pH and HCO3-, associated with an unlikely calmness of the medical professional and probably with little benefit on the part of the patients. patients; This study tries to concisely explain the etiology of metabolic acidosis and the real indication of this drug, which up to now could have more harm than good.

RESUMO

RESUMEN Este artículo analiza ciertos aspectos evolutivos en el intercambio gaseoso, el desa rrollo pulmonar, la bomba respiratoria, el estado ácido-base y el control de la ventila ción en relación con un evento trascendente: el pasaje de la vida acuática a la terres tre. Su estudio puede permitir comprender ciertos aspectos con los que lidiamos en la práctica clínica: ¿Por qué las personas con debilidad muscular respiratoria extrema respiran como ranas (respiración frog)?, ¿Por qué los recién nacidos con dificultad respiratoria tienen aleteo nasal y quejido espiratorio?, ¿cómo es posible que los mús culos abdominales, típicamente espiratorios, asistan a la inspiración en casos de la parálisis diafragmática?, ¿por qué en la insuficiencia respiratoria el patrón respiratorio tiene menos variabilidad y se torna más rígido? y, por último, ¿es posible imaginar un pH neutro que no tenga el valor de 7,0, para qué sirve este conocimiento y como se deben interpretar los gases en hipotermia? La transición del agua a la tierra es una de las más importantes e inspiradoras de las grandes transiciones en la evolución de los vertebrados. Ante la sorprendente diversi dad de organismos vivos, es tentador imaginar una cantidad enorme de adaptaciones evolutivas para resolver los diferentes desafíos que cada especie tiene para la vida en la tierra. Hay desarrollos tempranos que comparten algunos factores cruciales y algunas de las redes genéticas regulatorias cercanas y lejanas están conservadas. Somos testigos de hallazgos clínicos que son el testimonio de especies que han vivido en épocas remotas y nos han legado su historia evolutiva.

ABSTRACT This article analyzes certain evolutionary aspects of gas exchange, lung development, the respiratory pump, the acid-base status and control of ventilation in relation to a significant event: the passing from aquatic to terrestrial life. By studying this, we can understand certain aspects that are present in the clinical practice: Why do people with extreme respiratory muscle weakness breathe as frogs? (frog breathing); why do newborns with breathing difficulties have nasal flaring and expiratory grunting?; how is it possible that abdominal muscles, which are typically expiratory, assist with inspira tion in cases of diaphragmatic paralysis?; why does the breathing pattern of respiratory failure has less variability and becomes more rigid? and, finally, is it possible to imagine a neutral pH that doesn't have the 7.0 value?; what's the use of this knowledge, and how should gases in hypothermia be interpreted? Water-to-land transition is one of the most important and inspiring major transitions of vertebrate evolution. Given the amazing diversity of living organisms, it is tempting to imagine an enormous amount of evolutionary adaptation processes to solve the different challenges of living on earth faced by each species. There are certain early development processes that share some crucial factors, and some of the close and distant gene regulatory networks are conserved. We are witnesses of clinical findings that serve as testimony of the species that lived in remote times and left us their evo lutionary history.

RESUMO

Abstract Introduction: Metabolic acidosis is a frequent pathophysiological condition in critically ill patients. It can be assessed using different physiological variables, but their prognostic value has not yet been well established. Objective: To evaluate the association between the variables that allow assessing the metabolic component of acid-base balance (ABB) and 28-day mortality in patients admitted to an intensive care unit (ICU) in Bogotá, D.C., Colombia. Materials and methods: Prospective cohort study conducted in 122 patients admitted to an ICU between January and June 2013 and with a stay >24 hours. On admission to the ICU, blood samples were taken, and an arterial blood gas test was performed in order to calculate the following variables: anion gap (AG), corrected anion gap (AGc), standard base excess (BEst), metabolic H+, base excess-unmeasurable anions (BEua), arterial pH, arterial lactate, standard HCO3-st, and strong ion difference (SID). APACHE II and SOFA scores were also calculated. A bivariate analysis was performed in which ORs and their respective 95%CI were calculated, and then a multivariate analysis was conducted using a logistic regression model to identify the variables associated with 28-day mortality; a significance level of p<0.05 was considered. Results: Out of the 122 patients, 33 (27.05%) died at 28 days and 51 (48.80%) were women. Participants' mean age was 46.5 years (±15.7). The following variables were significantly associated with 28-day mortality in the bivariate analysis: SID (OR=1.150; p=0.008), BEua (OR=0.897; p=0.023), AG (OR=1.231; p=0.002), AGc (OR=1.232; p=0.003), blood pH (OR=0.001; p=0.023), APACHE II (OR=1.180; p=0.001), HCO3-st (OR=0.841; p=0.015). In the multivariate analysis, only the APACHE II score variable was significantly associated with 28-day mortality (OR=1.188; p=0.008). Conclusion: The physiological variables that allow assessing the metabolic component of ABB, both from the Henderson model and the Stewart model, were not significantly associated with 28-day mortality.

También se calcularon el puntaje APACHE II y el puntaje SOFA. Se realizó un análisis bivariado en el que se calcularon OR y sus respectivos IC95%, y luego uno multivariado, mediante un modelo de regresión logística, para identificar las variables asociadas con la mortalidad a 28 días; se consideró un nivel de significancia de p<0.05 Resultados. De los 122 pacientes, 33 (27.05%) fallecieron a 28 días y 51 (48.80%) eran mujeres. La edad promedio fue 46.5 años (±15.7). En el análisis bivariado, las siguientes variables se asociaron significativamente con la mortalidad a 28 días: BIF (OR=1.150; p=0.008), BEua (OR=0.897; p=0.023), AG (OR=1.231; p=0.002), AGc (OR=1.232; p=0.003), pH arterial (OR=0.001; p=0.023), APACHE II (OR=1.180;p=0.001), HCO3-st (OR=0.841;p=0.015). En el análisis multivariado, solo el puntaje APACHE II se asoció significativamente con la mortalidad a 28 días (OR=1.188; p=0.008). Conclusión. Las variables fisiológicas que permiten evaluar el componente metabólico del EAB, tanto las del modelo de Henderson, como las del modelo de Stewart, no se asociaron significativamente con la mortalidad a 28 días.

ABSTRACT Introduction: the carrier of chronic renal failure can present various alterations of the basic acid state, being the metabolic acidosis the most frequent. Objectives: to describe the demographic and clinical characteristics and alterations in the acid-base status of adult patients admitted with chronic renal failure in two hospitals in Paraguay. Methodology: an observational, descriptive, cross-sectional design was applied. Adult subjects of both sexes, carriers of chronic renal failure, who attended the National Hospital (Itauguá) and the Military Hospital (Asunción) between April and November 2021 were included. Anthropometric, clinical and laboratory variables were measured at admission. The data was submitted to descriptive statistics with the Epi Info 7™ program. The study was approved by the Ethics Committee of the Universidad Privada del Este, Paraguay. Results: 148 subjects were included, being 78 (52.7 %) men with a mean age of 58 ± 16 years and 70 (47.3 %) women with a mean age of 54 ± 17 years. The most frequent etiologies of chronic renal failure were diabetes mellitus and arterial hypertension (44.5 %). 12 subjects (8.1 %) with normal blood gases were detected. The most frequent alteration of the acid-base status was metabolic acidosis (87.2 %), with cases with normal anion gap predominating in this group. Conclusions: the predominant acid-base status alterations in patients with chronic renal failure was metabolic acidosis with normal anion gap. It is suggested to apply the calculations of the compensatory mechanisms to arrive at the accurate diagnosis of these metabolic alterations.

RESUMO

ABSTRACT Purpose: Since the dietary acid load (PRAL) may affect the acid-base balance of the body, there is an increasing interest in its role in sports performance. Typical nutritional requirements of different sports, associated with its physiological demands, might be reflected in the acid load of their diet. Thus, the purpose of this study is to compare the dietary acid load between team, endurance, and strength athletes and to determine the associations between PRAL and hydration status. Methods: Fifty-one healthy recreational male athletes (age: 18-39 yrs) from team, endurance, and strength sports participated in the study. A 3-day food diary was recorded and dietary PRAL values (mEq/day) were calculated. Urine pH and specific gravity were measured. One-way ANOVA with Bonferroni post-hoc analysis and Pearson correlation coefficient (r) were used for data analysis. Results: PRAL in endurance athletes (25.34 mEq/day) was lower compared to team and strength athletes (46.12 and 46.47 mEq/day, respectively) (p= 0.023). Percentage of high PRAL diet (≥15 (mEq/day)) was highest in team sports (89.5%), followed by strength (83.3%) and endurance sports (60%). PRAL was not associated with hydration status. Conclusion: Typical nutritional requirements of sport disciplines are reflected in the PRAL, thus PRAL should be considered when preparing nutritional strategies to improve performance.

RESUMEN Objetivo: Dado que la carga ácida de la dieta (PRAL) puede afectar el equilibrio ácido-base del cuerpo, existe un interés creciente en su papel en el rendimiento deportivo. Los requerimientos nutricionales típicos de diferentes deportes, asociados con sus demandas fisiológicas, pueden reflejarse en la carga ácida de su dieta. Por lo tanto, el propósito de este estudio fue comparar la carga ácida de la dieta entre atletas de equipo, de resistencia y de fuerza, y determinar las asociaciones entre PRAL y el estado de hidratación. Métodos: Participaron en el estudio 51 atletas masculinos sanos (edad: 18-39 años) de deportes de equipo, de resistencia y de fuerza. Se registró un diario de alimentación de 3 días y se calcularon los valores de PRAL dietético (mEq/día). Se midieron el pH y la gravedad específica de la orina. Para el análisis de datos se utilizó ANOVA de una vía con análisis post-hoc de Bonferroni y coeficiente de correlación de Pearson (r). Resultados: PRAL en los atletas de resistencia (25,34 mEq/día) fue menor en comparación con los atletas de equipo y de fuerza (46,12 y 46,47 mEq/día, respectivamente) (p= 0,023). El porcentaje de dieta alta en PRAL (≥15 mEq/día) fue más alto en los deportes de equipo (89,5%), seguido de los deportes de fuerza (83,3%) y de resistencia (60%). PRAL no se asoció con el estado de hidratación. Conclusión: Los requerimientos nutricionales típicos de las disciplinas deportivas se reflejan en el PRAL, por lo que se debe considerar el PRAL al preparar estrategias nutricionales para mejorar el rendimiento.

RESUMO

This study investigated the alkalinizing potential of an intravenous polyionic solution containing 84 mEq/L of lactate on hydroelectrolyte and acid-base balances in healthy goats.Four solutions, containing 28 and 84 mEq/L of lactate (L28 and L84) or bicarbonate (B28 and B84), were formulated. Six healthy Saanen goats were used. All four solutions were infused intravenously in each animal, one at a time, with an interval of 4–5 days between the infusions, at a speed of 33.3 mL/kg/h and totaling a volume equivalent to 10% of their body weight, in 3 h of continuous administration. Samples of venous blood and urine were collected at 0h (start of the infusion), 1.5h (middle of the infusion), 3h (end of the infusion), and 4.5h, 6h, and 24 h from the start of the infusion. The laboratory tests included determination of blood pH, pCO2, HCO3-, base excess (BE), Na+, K+, Cl-, total plasmatic protein, L-lactate, and creatinine. In urine samples, pH, Na+, K+, Cl-, L-lactate, and creatinine were measured. The L28 solution, equivalent to lactated Ringer's solution, caused a slight increase in the alkaline reserve and did not change the electrolyte balance. The L84 solution resulted in a greater increase in the alkaline reserve, equivalent to the B84 solution, with return to baseline values within 24 h from the start of the infusion.The L84 solution proved to be safe and produced iatrogenic alkalization when infused into healthy goats, without causing side effects.(AU)

O objetivo deste trabalho foi investigar o potencial alcalinizante de uma solução poli-iônica intravenosa contendo 84mEq/L de lactato no equilíbrio hidroeletrolítico e ácido base de cabras saudáveis. Quatro soluções contendo 28 e 84 mEq/L de lactato (L28 e L84) ou bicarbonato (B28 e B84) foram formuladas. Seis cabras, adultas, da raça Saanen, saudáveis receberam as quatro soluções por via intravenosa, uma de cada vez, com intervalo de quatro a cinco dias entre as infusões, a velocidade de 33,3 ml/kg/h, totalizando um volume equivalente a 10% do seu peso corporal, em três horas de administração contínua. Foram coletadas amostras de sangue venoso e urina antes do início da infusão (0h), na metade (1,5h), no fim (3h) e às 4,5h, 6h e 24h após o início da infusão. Os exames laboratoriais consistiram na determinação do pH sanguíneo, pCO2, HCO3-, BE, Na+, K+, Cl-, proteína plasmática total, lactato L e creatinina. Nas amostras de urina foram medidos o pH, Na+, K+, Cl-, lactato L e creatinina. A solução L28, equivalente à solução de Ringer com lactato, causou um aumento leve na reserva alcalina e não alterou o equilíbrio eletrolítico. A solução L84 resultou em maior aumento da reserva alcalina, equivalente à solução B84, com retorno dos parâmetros avaliados aos valores basais em até 24 horas após o início da infusão. A solução L84 provou-se segura e produziu alcalose iatrogência em cabras sadias, sem causar qualquer efeito colateral.(AU)

RESUMO

This study aimed to evaluate the cardiorespiratory and hemogasometric effects of epidural ketamine and its associations with morphine and xylazine in ewes submitted to transcervical cervix transposition with a hegar dilator. Ten Santa Inês breed ewes were studied in a cross over model study where three epidural protocols (GK = ketamine 2.0 mg kg-1; GKM = ketamine 2.0 mg kg-1 + morphine 0.1 mg kg-1; GKX = ketamine 2.0 mg kg-1 + xylazine 0.05 mg kg-1) were compared among each other and with a control treatment (GS= saline 1 mL/7.5 kg). The assessed variables were heart rate, respiratory frequency, ear temperature, non-invasive blood pressure and hemogasometric analysis. All parameters were assessed at baseline and then ewes were sedated with an association of acepromazine (0.1 mg kg -1) and diazepam (0.2 mg kg -1). Ten minutes after sedation all parameters were reassessed and afterwards the epidural injections were performed. Hemogasometry was repeated at 15 and 30 minutes after epidural and the other parameters assessed at 05, 15, 30, 45 and 60 minutes after epidural. GKX showed a slight respiratory depression with lower levels of PO2 and a compensatory increase in respiratory frequency. GKM presented the lower temperature mean. All protocols showed few cardiorespiratory effects when compared with control. Epidural with 2.0 mg kg-1 ketamine isolated was considered the best opti

Este estudo teve como objetivo avaliar os efeitos cardiorrespiratórios e hemogasométricos da cetamina peridural e suas associações com morfina e xilazina em ovelhas submetidas à manipulação uterina por via transcervical. Foram estudadas dez ovelhas da raça Santa Inês. Três protocolos epidurais foram avaliados: (GK = cetamina 2,0 mg kg−1, GKM = cetamina 2,0 mg kg−1 + morfina 0,1 mg kg−1, GKX = cetamina 2,0 mg kg−1 + xilazina 0,05 mg kg−1). Os três protocolos foram comparados entre si e com um tratamento controle (GS = solução salina 1 mL/7,5kg). As variáveis avaliadas foram frequência cardíaca, frequência respiratória, temperatura auricular, pressão arterial não-invasiva além da análise hemogasométrica. Todos os parâmetros foram avaliados no momento basal e em seguida as ovelhas foram sedadas com associação de acepromazina (0,1 mg kg−1) e diazepam (0,2 mg kg−1). Dez minutos após a sedação, todos os parâmetros foram novamente avaliados e foram realizadas as injeções peridurais. A hemogasometria foi repetida aos 15 e 30 minutos após a peridural e os outros parâmetros avaliados aos 05, 15, 30, 45, e 60 minutos após a peridural. O GKX mostrou sinais de hipoxemia com menores níveis de pO2 e um aumento compensatório na frequência respiratória. O GKM apresentou a média de temperatura mais baixa. Todos os protocolos apresentaram poucos efeitos cardiorrespiratórios em relação ao controle. O protocolo epidural com 2,0 mg kg−1 de cetamina foi considerado a melhor opção para procedimentos curtos como manipulações obstétricas em ovinos devido à estabilidade cardiorrespiratória quando comparado com os protocolos que utilizaram associações.(AU)
