Subtopics

• Metabolic acidosis [r]: Refers to an abnormal chemical compositional state of the body that clinicians characterize as abnormally increased acidity — measured as pH reduction or hydrogen ion concentration ([H⁺]) increase — accompanied by abnormally reduced bicarbonate concentration ([HCO₃^-]) concentration in the extracellular fluid compartment (ECF) of the body, acknowledging that in most cases similar compositional abnormalities exist in the intracellular fluid compartment (ICF) as well. ^[e]
• Trauma medicine [r]: Damage inflicted on the body as the direct or indirect result of an external force, with or without disruption of structural continuity. ^[e]
  • Lethal triad [r]: In the context of trauma medicine and damage control surgery, the combination of trauma induced coagulopathy, hypothermia and metabolic acidosis ^[e]
  • Crush injury [r]: Physiological consequences of prolonged heavy pressure on body parts, which can be catastrophic if released suddenly without patient preparation; the crushing releases toxic substances from devitalized muscle ^[e]
