Pathophysiology, Evaluation, and Management of Metabolic Alkalosis. [PDF]
Cureus, 2021 Metabolic alkalosis is an increase in blood pH to >7.45 due to a primary increase in serum bicarbonate (HCO3−). Metabolic alkalosis results from alkali accumulation or acid loss, and it is associated with a secondary increase in carbon dioxide arterial ...
