AbstractThe Authors produce a further contribution on metabolic post-hypercapnic alkalosis on the basis of clinical observation of a patient with severe hypercapnia and respiratory failure undergoing intensive care as well as treatment with iron lung (Pulmolife). The improvement of respiratory acid-base umbalance was associated with alteration of electrolytic assessment, especially of the plasmatic chloride ratio. The Authors consider this remark as a starting point for a physiopathological pattern and a more complete analysis of the pathways which generate the metabolic post-hypercapnic alkalosis condition in such patients.
