Acidosis and Alkalosis MADE EASY

In this video, Dr Mike explains the mechanism behind respiratory and metabolic based acidosis and alkalosis.

[@Pheenam]

Just brilliant My lecturer: 50 min preso, 12 confusing slides Dr. Mike: ~5mins, 3 color markers, 1 pimp 'stache

[@1_Quest_1]

Mine is confusing 60slides🥲

[@datzsojahna8925]

Lmfao not the pimp stache😂😂😂

[@BallyBoy95]

I 100% approve of that moustache.

[@2vaclav]

Hell no. He looks incredibly ridicilous with it.

[@fegursonokwori8193]

After 10years of confusion around this topic, I finally understood it within 5mins. Genius

[@triciaanne7273]

Thanks for this video! I remembered the mnemonic ROME = respiratory opposite, metabolic equal.

[@mateoslopez2079]

oooooh Thank You for this Acronym/Mnemonic !

[@yuvrajsinghshekhawat7784]

Ya

[@josianeiradukunda334]

Thank you so much for commenting bc I was having a little trouble understanding

[@Sunnyfield323]

Hmm ROME please expand .. respitory opposite ??

[@RuthLovesJesus]

@@Sunnyfield323 ROME: The Opposite or Equal is in reference to the pH. For example, in Respiratory alkalosis when the pH is High then the carbon dioxide CO2 is Low and the compensatory effect is Low bicarbonate HCO3- so Opposite from the high pH. However, in metabolic alkalosis when pH is High then HCO3- is High and to compensate CO2 will also be High, so they are all Equally High.

I have been trying to get my head around this for over a week, then I stumble across this video and everything becomes crystal clear in 5 minutes. God save you!!

[@Nursepractitionerd]

You can tell when someone understands a difficult topic if they are able to explain a complex topic in simple terms.

[@TheHasarinda]

you are 100% correct highly recommended for BSc in biochem and nursing students.............. please do more lessons

[@RA6162]

Pure Genius ! I love your videos Doc ! Never came across so precise and strikingly informative vidoes that are to the point that sit in ur head ! Can't thank you enough ! :)

[@nataliesohkhlet9565]

Thank you for making these videos. You make these more simple and easy to understand. Keep doing what you do!

[@epapazova]

Thank you so much! All your videos are super helpful! Simple, clear, and straight to the point :)

[@rodee7894]

That’s amazing how I understand 3hours lecture in 5 minutes , Thank you so much 😍

[@tbucks9953]

This got me so confused at the beginning because I kept asking myself how is it that we keep producing increased hydrogen when CO2 increases but yet we are going down in Ph. But once I realized that Ph is measured in 1x10^-ph. Now it made sense because naturally when you decrease something raised to a negative power it would increase it. Thank you for this video!

[@thelmageorge5847]

And you have done it again in less than 6 minutes. Thank you so much. I truly appreciate you.

[@waffleisnice]

I am not even a legally medical student, just a regular high school student that got curious about this. You explain it so well !! Thank you
