Acid-Base Disorders: From Basic to Advanced (Medical Course)
Acid-Base Disorders: From Basic to Advanced (Medical Course)
This is a medical course on Acid-Base Disorders for medical students, trainees and medical practitioners. It is a progressive course for which starts from basic principles, moving stepwise to intermediate and advanced level knowledge. Doctors caring for patients who are ill or at risk of deterioration must be able to detect and manage acid-base disorders on the go. The course materials are intended to be highly relevant to clinical work, especially for those working in an acute care setting.Presented in easy & digestible bits, the concepts are reinforced to improve learning and retention. Lots of visual aids, including the use of the Gamblegram, helps to simplify the topic which can sometimes be overwhelming.
The course includes:
Revision of the basics:
Respiratory acid-base disorders
High Anion Gap Metabolic Acidosis (HAGMA)
Normal Anion Gap Metabolic Acidosis (NAGMA)
Interpretation of the serum Anion Gap
Interpretation of the Urine Anion Gap & Urine Osmolar Gap
Complex and Mixed acid-base disorders
Differentiating Type 1, 2 & 4 Renal Tubular Acidosis (the Bicarbonate Loading Test)
Treatment of acid-base disorders
After a series of concise lectures, real-life clinical case studies for practice are available at graded levels of difficulty. The learner can apply the knowledge and try solving the clinical problems. Answers & rationale behind the answers are also provided.
This course is suitable at all levels, such as Medical Students, Nephrology & Internal Medicine & Critical Care Trainees and Practicing Physicians revising for Board Recertification.
Build & revise your knowledge on Acid-Base disorders, essential when managing patients with acute medical conditions.
