Acid Base & Blood Gas Masterclass | Acid Base, Anion Gap, Delta Gap, ABG & VBG

Acid-base interpretation and blood gas analysis are core skills for evaluating metabolic acidosis, metabolic alkalosis, respiratory acidosis, respiratory alkalosis, anion gap disorders, mixed acid-base disorders, ABGs, and VBGs. In this video, we do an incredible deep dive and a structured review/approach to acid-base physiology, anion gap interpretation, delta gap analysis, and blood gas interpretation. You will come out of this not just having a complete grasp on these concepts, but also the physiology behind them. Topics covered include: • Acid-base physiology and core definitions • Metabolic acidosis • Metabolic alkalosis • Respiratory acidosis • Respiratory alkalosis • Arterial blood gas interpretation • Venous blood gas interpretation • ABG versus VBG interpretation • Anion gap calculation and interpretation • Albumin correction for the anion gap • High anion gap metabolic acidosis • Normal anion gap metabolic acidosis • Delta gap and delta ratio analysis • Mixed acid-base disorders • Compensation and expected respiratory response • Practical acid-base problem solving 0:00 - 30:42 - Acid-Base foundations, physiology, buffering, metabolic, respiratory, etc 30:43 - 58:05 - Applying to blood gases, analysis, acute vs chronic, and more 58:06 - 1:19:28 - Anion gap explained 1:19:29 - 1:32:16 - Delta delta, delta gap & delta ratio explained 1:32:17 - 1:46:48 - Arterial blood gas comprehensive overview 1:46:49 - 2:02:46 - Venous blood gas (VBG) comprehensive overview 📚 WhiteBoard Medicine Patreon Take your learning beyond YouTube with access to: • Comprehensive Study Guides • Bedside One-Pagers • Clinical Reviews • Mini-Courses • Practice Questions • Ad-Free Videos • Structured Topic Collections Support WhiteBoard Medicine and help us continue creating high-yield medical education:   / whiteboardmedicine   🌐 WhiteBoard Medicine Website Explore our growing library of critical care and emergency medicine content: https://www.whiteboardmedicine.com 🎧 WhiteBoard Medicine Podcast Prefer audio?
