Bicar-ICU changes my practice with bicarb infusions and let’s end the great lactate debate on EMCrit 227:
Podcast 97 – Acid-Base VI – Chloride-Free Sodium
So last podcast, I bashed on sodium bicarbonate or as John Kellum and David Story call it: chloride-free sodium. This episode I talk about all the good reasons to use NaBicarb.
Podcast 96 – Acid Base in the Critically Ill – Part V – Enough with the Bicarb Already
More on Bicarb in the Critically Ill and a discussion with John Kellum, MD
EMCrit Podcast 50 – Acid Base Part IV – Choose the Solution Based on the Problem
This is Part 4 of the Acid Base saga. In this episode, I discuss the acid base effects of fluids and when and how to use sodium bicarbonate.
EMCrit Podcast 46 – Acid Base: Part III
In part III, we go through 2 cases of acid base abnormalities step by step.
EMCrit Podcast 45 – Acid Base: Part II
This second lecture discusses a quantitative approach to acid base management. I lay out the formula I use to approach an acid-base problem.
EMCrit Podcast 44 – Acid Base: Part I
This lecture discusses a quantitative approach to acid base management. This is also known as the Fencl-Stewart approach, the strong-ion approach or the physicochemical approach. It provides explanations for why acid base disorders occur in human pathophysiology.
