Part F (6 of 6) Emphysema can lead to which acid/base disturbance? What would be the compensation? metabolic acidosis; hypoventilation by the lungs respiratory alkalosis; kidneys will retain more H$^+$ and excrete HCO$_3^-$ respiratory acidosis; kidneys will retain more HCO$_3^-$ and excrete H$^+$ respiratory acidosis; hyperventilation

Transcript

00:01 Everyone in this question we will be discussing about acidosis so this is a medical condition in which there is overproduction of acid that builds up in the blood of an excessive or there is excessive loss of the bicarbonate from the blood that is metabolic acedosis or there is a build up of the carbon dioxide in the blood that results from the poor lung function or depressed breathing and this might lead to respiratory acidosis.

00:43 So there are many symptoms of the acidosis like accelerated heart beat or there might be furtive in the body or loss of appetite also.

01:00 Also, headache or rapid breathing or deep breathing can be there.

01:06 There are many causes of the acidosis and these here are the diabetic acidosis which is caused due to the development of the ketone bodies and it is due to the uncontrolled diabetes and there is hyperchloramic acidosis that is caused by the loss of too much of sodium carbonate and it can be caused due to the kidney diseases like the distal renal tubular acidosis or proximal renal tubular tibular acidosis and there is also lectic oxidosis or there can be severe dehydration.

01:58 Lactic acidosis can also be caused due to the carbon monoxide poisoning or drinking too much of alcohol or in the case of hypoglycemia or in the cases of liver failure and seizures so here we have been asked that can the pulmonary fibrosis cause the acidosis in option a so the a respiratory acidosis can be caused due to the airway diseases such as asthma and copd.

02:40 The lung tissue diseases such as the pulmonary fibrosis which causes the scarring and thickening of the lungs.

02:51 Then option b says chronic renal failure.

02:56 So metabolic acidosis is one of the consequences of the chronic kidney diseases but it is very rare.

03:06 Then option c says prolong vomiting.

03:11 So people who experience severe vows of vomiting can suffer from the prolonged metabolic alkalosis, not the acidosis.

03:24 So, vomiting basically caused the loss of hydrogen and chloride ion and thereby allow the stomach to add new bicarbonate to the body...
