Abstract

Metabolic acid-base disorders frequently occur in emergency and critically ill patients. Recognizing these disturbances can be challenging, particularly when multiple acid-base imbalances coexist within a single patient. The anion gap (AG) and strong ion gap (SIG) are valuable calculations that help identify complex metabolic acid-base disturbances associated with unmeasured anions. This review provides definitions, reference values, indications, limitations, and guidelines for interpreting AG and SIG changes in clinical settings.

阴离子隙和强离子隙简论。

代谢性酸碱紊乱常见于急危病人。识别这些干扰可能是具有挑战性的，特别是当多个酸碱失衡共存于一个病人。阴离子间隙（AG）和强离子间隙（SIG）是有价值的计算，有助于识别与未测量阴离子相关的复杂代谢酸碱干扰。这篇综述提供了临床环境中解释AG和SIG变化的定义、参考价值、适应症、局限性和指南。
