Created page with "'''Metabolic alkalosis''' is an acid-base disorder characterised by a metabolic pathological process which increases the pH of the blood. If the alkalosis is severe, it can overcome the body's defense against alkalosis, causes the pH in the blood to increase beyond 7.45. This is called alkalaemia. Respiratory alkalosis is similar but is rather due to a respiratory problem. Metabolic acidosis is sort of the opposite of metabolic alkalosis. Metabolic alkalosis..."
