Desde pequena que me foi incutido este princípio.
Ora, então, tomem lá (e não se queixem):
Acid-base disorders are extremely common in clinical medicine and can be seen in numerous disease states. The lungs and kidneys help maintain acid-base equilibrium (in the lungs via CO2, in the kidneys via bicarbonate [HCO3−];). The body never overcorrects for a single acid-base disorder. When evaluating acid-base status, begin by looking at the serum pH to decide if acidosis or alkalosis is present (pH < 7.4 indicates acidosis; pH > 7.4 indicates alkalosis). Then look at the partial pressure of carbon dioxide (Pco2) and serum HCO3− to see which one (or both) is consistent with the pH, to determine if the primary disorder is respiratory or metabolic. Note that a normal pH does not exclude an acid-base disorder; for instance, with a coexisting metabolic acidosis and metabolic alkalosis, the pH may be normal

Credo! Até me doem as vistas! Isso faz mal aos rinses, senhora Dôtora.
