The pathogenesis of salt dependent hypertension in relation to the role of acquired tubulointerstitial renal disease (essential hypertension) is performed in the following algorithm diagram.
In the role of acquired tubulointerstitial disease in the pathogenesis of salt dependent hypertension, it proposed that hypertension has hyperactive Symphatehetic Nervorum System (SNS) or Renin Angiotensin System (RAS) and an impaired ability of the kidney to excrete salt, NaCl.
The herein diagram provides an algorithm for assessing metabolic acidosis. Accordingly, metabolic acidosis can be identified by using the arterial blood gas analysis and serum electrolyte concentrations.
Metabolic Acidosis Assessment Algorithm outlines steps for identifications such determining the patient alkalemic or acidemic on basis of arterial pH, determining the primary disorder causing acidemia (metabolic or respiratoric), determining the present of gap or nongap acidosis, determining the compensation of respiratory system and determining whether another metabolic disorder is present.
