This is video 4 of our 5 video series on AcidBase Disorders. In this video we dive into the anion gap. We start by discussing what the anion gap is and why it is important for AcidBase Disorders. We then cover the components of the anion gap including sodium, potassium, bicarbonate, and chloride. And the unmeasured cations and anions. We cover albumin's role in correcting the anion gap equation. We use the physiology of an anion gap to understand why a high anion gap (HAGMA) has a different differential diagnosis than a Nonanion gap (NAGMA). We do a deep dive on the differential diagnoses including mnemonics to better remember, such as GOLDMARKS, MUDPILES, and more.
