A normal Acid-Base status is essential for the proper functioning of all physiologic processes, and our bodies work hard to maintain pH homeostasis. This lecture gives a basic review of acids, bases, pH, and how our bodies compensate for acid-base disorders
Learning objectives of this video are the following:
1. pH – What is it and why do we need it?
2. Regulation of pH - Why we love our kidneys & lungs?
3. Acid-base disorders - Dysregulation and Compensation.

Hi. Thank you for the educational video. But, the last section of metabolic acidosis with mixed acid-base disorders was a bit complicated. can you do another video with more scenarios, and explain the calculation a bit more thoroughly please. Thank you.

Other textbooks and resources indicates that in Respiratory Alkalosis the pH change is 0.08 per 10 mmHg PCO2 for acute and 0.03 per 10 mmHg PCO2 for chronic, so not 0.08 for both acute and chronic. Also, in the case example of Respiratory Alkalosis, why did you use 40 as normal HCO3 level? I thought the normal for HCO3 should be around 24-25?
