The sections that follow briefly describe the clinical significance of each of these
parameters.
Bicarbonate Ion
The majority of CO
2
is transported through the body as the bicarbonate ion (HCO
3
–
),
which is the major buffer substance present in the body. Bicarbonate plays a central role in
maintaining the pH level in blood.
Bicarbonate levels are clinically significant in helping to determine the nonrespiratory,
renal (metabolic) component in acid-base blood disorders.
Two versions of bicarbonate exist:
•
Actual bicarbonate (HCO
3
–
act), which is determined directly from the pH and
p
CO
2
values, based on the recommendations from the Clinical and Laboratory Standards
Institute (CLSI) as follows:
HCO
3
–
act = 0.0307 ×
p
CO
2
× 10
(pH(37)–6.105)
•
Standard bicarbonate (HCO
3
–
std), which is a determination of the plasma HCO
3
–
concentration if the blood is equilibrated to a
p
CO
2
of 40 mmHg
9
using the equation
described by VanSlyke and Cullin
30
:
where
and if
s
O
2
is available, it is used in place of O
2
SAT(est).
NOTE:
If
c
tHb is not available as an entered value or a measured value, the system uses
15 g/dL as a default value.
Base Excess
Base excess is an empirical expression that approximates the amount of acid or base
required to titrate 1 liter of blood to a normal pH of 7.40. Base excess is a clinically useful
way of assessing the metabolic portion of the acid-base balance.
