Area of Science:

  • Clinical Chemistry
  • Medical Diagnostics
  • Acid-Base Balance

Background:

  • Accurate diagnosis of acid-base disorders is crucial for patient management.
  • Identifying compensated and mixed disorders can be challenging with conventional methods.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present a novel diagnostic nomogram for acid-base disorders.
  • To facilitate the recognition of compensated and mixed acid-base disorders.

Main Methods:

  • Developed a diagnostic nomogram utilizing log partial pressure of carbon dioxide (pCO2) and log bicarbonate concentration (cHCO3-) as coordinates.
  • Indicated significance areas for compensated acid-base disorders on the nomogram.

Main Results:

  • The nomogram effectively delineates areas for compensated acid-base disorders.
  • The tool simplifies the recognition of mixed acid-base disorders.

Conclusions:

  • The presented nomogram is a valuable tool for diagnosing complex acid-base disorders.
  • The nomogram is suitable for on-line plotting and clinical application.
