Severe hyperlactatemia with normal base excess: a quantitative analysis using conventional and Stewart approaches

INTRODUCTION: Critically ill patients might present complex acid–base disorders, even when the pH, PCO(2), [HCO(3)(-)], and base excess ([BE]) levels are normal. Our hypothesis was that the acidifying effect of severe hyperlactatemia is frequently masked by alkalinizing processes that normalize the...
