ABSTRACT

Metabolic acidosis is a common complication among acutely unwell hospitalised patients. Untreated, it can result in undesirable cardiovascular, respiratory and neurological consequences. Metabolic acidosis can occur as an isolated entity or coexist with other acid-base disorders, making diagnosing the aetiology difficult. Accurate identification of the underlying cause is imperative for proper and timely management. A systematic approach can help simplify the assessment of patients and can aid in establishing the correct diagnosis, even in more complex cases. This article provides a practical, step-by-step guide for the assessment of adult patients with metabolic acidosis.
