Synopsis

This book explores the theoretical underpinnings of acidosis, a metabolic state characterized by an excessive accumulation of acids. It adopts an evidence-based approach to define, diagnose, and treat the condition, drawing upon recent research to challenge some of the prevailing conceptions in the field. The author provides a clear and accessible synthesis of the mechanisms involved in maintaining the body’s acid-base equilibrium, and discusses the application of various methods to detect acidosis in clinical practice. With a particular focus on the link between acidosis and renal disease, the book presents compelling evidence to redefine this phenomenon as a systemic rather than a localized issue, offering new insights into the diagnosis and management of acidosis in these patients.
