When the blood has a lower hydrogen ion concentration than normal and an excessive base (bicarbonate ions) in the extracellular fluids.<\/p>\n
Excessive alkalinity of body fluids due to accumulation of alkalines or reduction of acids.<\/p>\n
A condition that results when the body loses too much carbon dioxide or acid as the result of forced breathing or severe vomiting.<\/p>\n
A condition in which the alkali level in the body tissue is high, producing cramps.<\/p>\n
A condition where the blood pH rises above 7.4. Metabolic alkalosis may be caused by a loss in body acids; a loss of chloride ion, as occurs in excess vomiting; an excess of antacid intake; or depletion of potassium ion, as occurs with excessive diarrhea.<\/p>\n
Disturbance in the normal acid-base balance of the body in which the blood and body tissues are more alkaline than normal; it may result from hyperventilation, vomiting, or other conditions that cause an increase in base ions or a decrease in acid ions (compare acidosis).<\/p>\n
An abnormal condition of body fluids, characterized by a tendency toward a blood pH level greater than 7.45; this level is caused by an excess of alkaline bicarbonate or deficiency of acid.<\/p>\n
Disruption of the body\u2019s acid-base balance by an excessive increase in the blood alkali level. Acid loss may result from severe vomiting or ingestion of large amounts of antacids or diuretics.<\/p>\n
A condition in which the alkalinity of body fluids and tissues is abnormally high. This arises because of a failure of the mechanisms that usually maintain a balance between alkalis and acids in the arterial blood. Alkalosis maybe associated with loss of acid\u00a0 through vomiting or with excessive sodium bicarbonate intake. Breathing that is abnormally deep in relation to the amount of physical exercise may lead to respiratory alkalosis. Alkalosis may produce symptoms of muscular weakness or cramp.<\/p>\n
An increase in the alkalinity of the blood or, more accurately, a decrease in the concentration of hydrogen ions (or rise in pH) in the blood. It occurs, for example, in patients who have had large doses of alkalis for the treatment of gastric ulcer.<\/p>\n
An actual or relative increase in blood alkalinity due to an accumulation of alkalies or reduction of acids.<\/p>\n
Within the circulatory system and various bodily fluids, there exists a state wherein the levels of bicarbonate surpass the ordinary thresholds, resulting in an imbalance referred to as an excess of bicarbonate.<\/p>\n
An imbalance in the body’s acid-base equilibrium, characterized by an excess of alkali (base) or a deficit of acid, results in a condition known as alkalosis. There are two primary types of alkalosis: metabolic alkalosis and respiratory alkalosis.<\/p>\n
Metabolic alkalosis, characterized by elevated alkalinity, can occur due to excessive consumption of antacid medications or significant loss of stomach acid resulting from severe episodes of vomiting.<\/p>\n
Respiratory alkalosis involves a decrease in the concentration of carbonic acid (produced from carbon dioxide) in the bloodstream. This decline is a result of hyperventilation, which can happen during panic attacks or at high altitudes due to oxygen deprivation.<\/p>\n
An imbalance in the body’s acid-base levels, marked by excessive sweating, vomiting, or diarrhea.<\/p>\n
A condition where the blood turns alkaline, meaning there is a deficiency of hydrogen in the blood. It may result from respiratory or metabolic issues.<\/p>\n
