Traditional
(bicarbonate-centered)
model
The Stewart
(strong ion) model
Traditional Approach
(Bicarbonate centered)
The traditional model use easily
measured concentrations of blood
carbon
dioxide
[CO2]
and
bicarbonate [HCO3-]. As in any
chemical reaction in equilibrium, a
change in the concentration of the
reactant or product will move the
reaction in the direction that would
reestablish
equilibrium
(Le
Chateliers principle).
Cause the
equilibrium
shift:
Retention of CO2
Production nonvolatile acid from protein and
organic molecule metabolism
Losses bicarbonate pass through feces and urine
Intake acid or acid precursor
Cause of
acid
deficiency :
Compensation:
Acid-base equilibrium is regulated by buffering
agent that linked with Hydrogen to regulation pH
alteration
Extracellular buffer
Intracellular buffer
Bicarbonate and
ammonia
Protein and
phosphate
Bicarbonate
buffering system is
the primary keys
Anion Gap
Is the different between (positive charged ion) and
(negative charged ion) in serum, plasma, or urine and the
large of different assumed as Gap
If Gap higher than the normal
value indicated as high anion
gap metabolic acidosis
Anion Gap
The anion gap, consisting of the sum total of all
unmeasured charged specie (predominantly
albumin) in plasma, is calculated below as :
variables:
a. Dependent : H, OH, HCO3, CO3, HA, A
b. Independent : PCO2, A tot, SID
All the variable will construct a complex mathematics model

Conclusion
Clinical evidence can be interpreted with the use of
both the strong ion theory and the traditional
bicarbonate centered approach to provide an optimal
understanding of acidbase disorders.
