Overview
The first sentence of the overview must contain the name of the disease.
Causes
Life Threatening Causes
Life-threatening causes of Respiratory Alkalosis include
- Sepsis (Cytokine mediated)
Common Causes
- Central Nervous System related causes:[1]
- Increased Intracranial Pressure
- Stroke
- Head injury
- CNS infection
- Intracranial hemorrhage
- Pontine tumors
- Anxiety Hyperventilation
- Voluntary Hyperventilation
- Sepsis(Cytokine mediated)
- Chronic Liver disease(Toxin mediated)
- Drugs(Salicylates, progesterone)
- Pain
- Hypoxemic causes: Hypoxic stimulation leads to hyperventilation.
- Pulmonary Causes:
- Pneumonia
- Asthma
- Pulmonary oedema
- Pulmonary thromboembolism
- Extrinsic Causes(deliberate or iatrogenic):
- Excessive minute ventilation during mechanical ventilation
