摘要
Arterial blood gases and electrolytes were determined in 159 cases of adult respirato-ry distress syndrome(ARDS).It was found that disordered acid-base balance was a commonfinding in various kinds of ARDS.In mild ARDS,respiratory alkalosis and the combination ofrespiratory alkalosis plus metabolic alkalosis or metabolic acidosis were usually encounted,whilein moderate and severe cases of ARDS,triple acid-base disorders,respiratory acidosis,and thecombination of respiratory acidosis plus metabolic acidosis were commonly seen.Severe alkalosiswas one of the factors to result in death.
