Base excess is defined as the amount of strong acid that must be added to each liter of fully oxygenated blood to return the pH to 7.40 at a temperature of 37°C and a pCO2 of 40 mmHg (5.3 kPa), while a base deficit (ie. a negative base excess) is defined by the amount of strong base that must be added. The formula for base deficit is as follows:
Calculator to predict risk of AKI or hyperkalemia within 30 days after initiation of prescription NSAIDs in adults 66 years and older.
The calculations above are based on the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation: Replacing pK = 6.1, and [CO 2] = 0.03 * pCO 2, and removing the logarithms to get. HCO 3 = 0.03 * pCO 2 * 10 (pH - 6.1) In conjunction with the Siggaard-Anderson equation: B.E. = 0.9287 (HCO 3 - 24.4 + 14.83 (pH - 7.4)) or. B.E. = 0.9287 * HCO 3 + 13.77 * pH - 124.58.

Nov 3, 2020 · OVERVIEW. base excess is used as an indicator of the degree of metabolic disturbance. BICARBONATE. The problem with bicarbonate. Bicarbonate levels are not an ideal indicator of either metabolic or respiratory components of acid-base disturbance because it is affected by both.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The accuracy in predicting the base excess values of newborns was expressed as the proportion of FHR tracings in which the operator was able to correctly calculate the actual base excess at birth (approximation of ± 2 mmol/l).
Apr 12, 2018 · Depending on the algorithm used, standard base excess is calculated as 30 to 50 g per liter, which is essentially the estimated hemoglobin concentration in the extracellular fluid...
