Acidosis Management

Acidosis management involves identifying and treating the underlying cause of excess acid in the body. This may include correcting imbalances with medications, such as bicarbonate, adjusting ventilation in respiratory issues, or addressing metabolic problems like kidney dysfunction. The goal is to restore the body's pH to a normal, healthy level, ensuring that vital functions like heart and brain activity are maintained. Close monitoring of blood gases and electrolytes is essential to guide effective treatment, preventing complications and supporting overall recovery.
