High Anion Gap Metabolic Acidosis
When acidosis is present on blood tests, the first step in determining the cause is determining the anion gap. If the anion gap is high (>12 mEq/L), there are several potential causes. High anion gap metabolic acidosis is a form of metabolic acidosis characterized by a high anion gap (a medical value based on the concentrations of ions in a patient's serum). An anion gap is usually considered to be high if it is over 12 mEq/L. High anion gap metabolic acidosis is caused generally by acid produced by the body,. More rarely, high anion gap metabolic acidosis may be caused by ingesting methanol or overdosing on aspirin.[1][2] The Delta Ratio is a formula that can be used to assess elevated anion gap metabolic acidosis and to evaluate whether mixed acid base disorder (metabolic acidosis) is present. The list of agents that cause high anion gap metabolic acidosis is similar to but broader than the list of agents that cause a serum osmolal gap. Causes[edit] Causes include: The newest mnemonic was proposed in The Lancet reflecting current causes of anion gap metabolic acidosis:[3] G — glycols (ethylene glycol & propylene glycol) O — oxoproline, a metabolite of paracetamol L — L-lactate, the chemical responsible for lactic acidosis D — D-lactate M — methanol A — aspirin R — renal failure K — ketoacidosis, ketones generated from starvation, alcohol, and diabetic ketoacidosis The mnemonic MUDPILES is commonly used to remember the causes of increased anion gap metabolic acidosis.[4][5] M — Methanol U — Uremia (chronic kidney failure) D — Diabetic ketoacidosis P — Paracetamol, Propylene glycol (used as an inactive stabilizer in many medications; historically, the "P" also stood for Paraldehyde, though this substance is not commonly used today) I — Infectio Continue reading >>
Case Of The Month 15 Answer
A 44 year-old female presented to the emergency department with 3 days of nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and left lower quadrant pain. She has a history of diabetes and stage 3 CKD and is taking metformin and enalapril. On exam, she is found to be tachycardic and borderline tachypneic. She is speaking full sentences and has hyperactive bowel sounds with left lower quadrant tenderness but no rebound or guarding and a normal pelvic exam. Her labs are notable for hypokalemia, elevated lactate, and a small bump in her creatinine from baseline. Her urinalysis is normal, and she is HCG negative. Explain the patients metabolic acidosis? This is an anion gap (21) metabolic acidosis in a patient who takes metformin with an acute kidney injury and elevated lactate. Could this be metformin-associated lactic acidosis (MALA)? In order to diagnose MALA, you first have to believe it exists. The mechanism of metformin is complex and not fully understood. It is believed to work in 2 ways. Firstly, it converts glucose into lactate. Secondly, metformin decreases gluconeogenesis inhibiting lactate and pyruvate conversion back to glucose. Metformin is eliminated via the kidneys, and the concern is that in patients with ESRD, it may accumulate to toxic doses. After reviewing the literature, it appears this is unlikely. Yes, it is cleared by the kidney, but does not result in toxic blood levels of metformin (Frid et al, 2010). Additionally, research shows that it leads to increased blood lactate levels but does not translate to an increase in lactic acidosis. This fear of metformin stems from the original biguanide, phenphormin. Ultimately removed from the market in 1970s, it has been shown to cause significant lactic acidoses, because it is both hepatic and renally cleared, more lipophilic, an Continue reading >>

[Select All That Apply] a. Take on an empty stomach when you first wake up. b. Take with no more than 4 ounces of plain water. c. Wait at least 30 minutes before eating, drinking, or taking other oral medications. d. It works best if you take Rybelsus 5 minutes before taking the meal. Answer: (a,b,c) The active ingredient found in Rybelsus is Semaglutide. It is a glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist indicated as: 1. an adjunct to diet and exercise to improve glycemic control in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus. 1. Take on an empty stomach when you first wake up. 2. Take with no more than 4 ounces of plain water. 3. Wait at least 30 minutes before eating, drinking, or taking other oral medications. Instruct patients to take Rybelsus (Semaglutide) at least 30 minutes before the first food, beverage, or other oral medications of the day with no more than 4 ounces of plain water only. Waiting less than 30 minutes, or taking with food, beverages (other than plain water) or other oral medications will lessen the effect of Rybelsus (Semaglutide). Waiting more than 30 minutes to eat may increase the absorption of Rybelsus (Semaglutide). Swallow tablets whole. Do not cut, crush, or chew tablets. Start Rybelsus (Semaglutide) with 3 mg once daily for 30 days. After 30 days on the 3 mg dose, increase the dose to 7 mg once daily. Dose may be increased to 14 mg once daily if additional glycemic control is needed after Continue reading >>
