Organic acidaemia in intensive care unit patients
Abstract
Forty ICU patients were studied as to the prevalence and importance of organic acidaemia. It was observed that organic acidaemia was extremely common, secondly that a persistence of such an acidaemia heralded a poor prognosis and finally that the acidaemia rarely needed treatment in its own right.
