| 1. | The metabolic acidosis caused by RTA is a normal anion gap acidosis.
|
| 2. | Large anion gap acidosis is usually present during the initial stage of poisoning.
|
| 3. | The term " anion gap " without qualification usually implies serum anion gap.
|
| 4. | The term " anion gap " without qualification usually implies serum anion gap.
|
| 5. | If the gap is greater than normal, then high anion gap metabolic acidosis is diagnosed.
|
| 6. | Ifosfamide may also cause a normal anion gap acidosis, specifically renal tubular acidosis type 2.
|
| 7. | Anion gap can be classified as either high, normal or, in rare cases, low.
|
| 8. | An anion gap is usually considered to be high if it is over 11 mEq / L.
|
| 9. | The calculated value of the anion gap should always be adjusted for variations in the serum albumin concentration.
|
| 10. | More rarely, high anion gap metabolic acidosis may be caused by ingesting methanol or overdosing on aspirin.
