Hyperchloremic Metabolic Acidosis

Background: In resuscitation, normal saline could cause hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis, while balanced electrolyte solution is a crystalloid fluid resembling blood plasma with lower chloride content. This study compared the effect of normal saline and balanced electrolyte solution Ringerfundin (BES) as the resuscitation fluid in diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) patients. Parameters applied in this study were standard base excess (SBE) as resuscitation’s result indicator and strong ion difference (SID) to measure chloride’s influence in developing hyperchloremic acidosis.Methods: A prospective, randomized, single blind controlled trial was conducted at the Emergency Department of Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital. Thirty subjects with blood sugar >250 mg/dl, arterial pH <7.35 mg/dl, and positive blood ketone were randomly allocated to receive either normal saline (NS) or RingerfundinÒ (BES) as the standardized resuscitation protocol. Data analysis was performed using the unpaired T-test and the Mann Whitney test to compare the SBE and the SID means between both groups. Additional parameters were the level of consciousness, blood sugar level, vital signs, blood gas analysis, lactate, electrolyte, and blood ketone.Results: The mean SID in the BES group was significantly greater than the NS group of all measurements (p<0.05). The BES group had significantly higher mean SBE compared to the NS group at 18 hours (-4.88±5.69 vs -9.68±5.64; p=0.009), 24 hours (-3.99±4.27 vs -8.7±5.35; p=0.023), and 48 hours (-4.06±4.11 vs -7.01±5.46; p=0.009). BES resulted in non-significant higher delta SBE and SID than NS. Additional parameters were not different between both groups.Conclusion: This study showed that fluid resuscitation of DKA patients with BES resulted in slightly but not significantly higher mean actual SBE and SID than NS. suggesting that BES as an alternative fluid resuscitation to prevent hyperchloremic acidosis in diabetic ketoacidosis patients was not superior to NS.

Hyperchloremic Metabolic Acidosis

Compared with monopolar transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP), which requires electrolyte-free irrigation fluid, normal saline can be used as the irrigation solution in bipolar and laser TURP. The risk of TURP syndrome and severe electrolyte disturbance is minimized when normal saline is used as the irrigation fluid. However, the use of isotonic saline also causes acid-base imbalance and electrolyte disturbance. We experienced two patients who developed hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis during bipolar TURP. After proper intervention, hemodynamic instability resolved, and laboratory test results normalized. Anesthesiologists must pay attention to acid-base and electrolyte status when rapid absorption of excessive isotonic solution is suspected, even during bipolar and laser TURP, which use normal saline as the irrigation fluid.

Background: Large volume resuscitation with normal saline (NS) may be associated with iatrogenic hyperchloremia and renal injury. Objective: The purpose of this study was to assess clinical outcomes associated with the use of Lactated Ringer’s (LR) compared to NS as resuscitative fluid in diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). Methods: Single-center, retrospective analysis of patients admitted for DKA. The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the incidence of iatrogenic hyperchloremia associated with fluid resuscitation using balanced crystalloid compared to NS. Results Iatrogenic hyperchloremia occurred more frequently in the NS group compared to the LR group (74.4% vs 64.2%; P = 0.05). Mean maximum serum chloride was higher in the NS group (115.7 mmol/L vs 113.7 mmol/L; P = 0.004). Incidence of hypernatremia was higher in the NS group (18.3% vs 9.3%; P = 0.02). There was no significant difference in the incidence of AKI; however, mean change in serum creatinine at 48 hours showed a significantly greater decrease in the LR group (-0.15 mg/dL vs -0.04 mg/dL; P = 0.002). No significant differences were found in intensive care unit (ICU) length of stay or total hospital length of stay. Conclusion and Relevance This study found a statistically significant reduction in the incidence of iatrogenic hyperchloremia with the use of LR compared to NS as fluid resuscitation in DKA. Serum creatinine was more improved in the LR group versus NS group at 48 hours. Preferential use of balanced crystalloid for fluid resuscitation in DKA may reduce incidence of hyperchloremia and support renal recovery in this population.

History Of

Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is one of the most serious acute metabolic complications of diabetes mellitus. It is characterised by the biochemical triad of hyperglycaemia, ketonemia/ketonuria, and an increased anion gap metabolic acidosis. In this case, a 40-year-old male patient presented to the emergency department, with vomiting, nausea, polydipsia, polyuria and weight loss. He was found to have an elevated plasma glucose, despite having no known history of diabetes mellitus. His medical history was significant for spina bifida and ileal neobladder reconstruction. The plasma glucose level was 38 mmol/L. Blood gas analysis showed normal anion gap metabolic acidosis with high chloride and low bicarbonate. His plasma ketone level was 4.5 mmol/L. No significant reason for hyperchloraemia was identified. On initiation of DKA regimen, his condition improved and serum ketones normalised. Due to persistent hyperchloraemic metabolic acidosis, bicarbonate infusion was administered and his metabolic acidosis resolved.

Metabolic acidosis is a frequent complication of cardio-pulmonary bypass (CPB). Commonly, its cause is ascribed to hypoperfusion; however, iatrogenic causes, related to the composition and volume of intravascular fluids that are administered, are increasingly being recognized. The aim of this study was to determine if metabolic acidosis during CPB was associated with hypoperfusion, change in strong ion difference (SID) or haemodilution. Forty-nine patients undergoing cardiac surgery using CPB in the Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh (RIE) or the HCI, Clydebank were included in the study. Arterial blood samples were aspirated before induction of anaesthesia and the end of CPB. Samples were subjected to blood gas analysis and measurement of electrolytes and lactate. Changes in concentrations were then calculated. Change variables that were found to be significant (p B-0.1) univariate correlates of the change in hydrogen ion concentration were identified and entered into a multivariate regression model with hydrogen ion concentra tion at the end of CPB as the outcome variable (r2=0.65, p<0.001). Change variance in hydrogen ion concentration was created by first entering the baseline hydrogen ion concentration into the model. Next, any variance resulting from the respiratory component of acidosis was removed by entering the change in arterial carbon dioxide tension (regression coefficient (β)=0.67, p<0.01). Change in SID (β=-0.34, p<0.01) and surgical institution (β=-0.40, p<0.01) were then found to be predictors of the remaining variance whilst change in concentration of lactate (β in=0.16, p=0.07) and volume of intravascular fluid that was administered (β=-0.07, p=0.52) were rejected from the model. These findings suggest that the metabolic acidosis developing during CPB is partially the result of iatrogenic decrease in SID rather than hypoperfusion, as estimated by lactate concentration, or haemodilution.
