AlkalosisRelatively too much base in the blood and body, an abnormal condition resulting from the accumulation of base or the depletion of acid. The pH of an alkalotic body measures above normal. The opposite of alkalosis is acidosis.

3 |
Alkalosisantonym acidosis Pathological condition in which the hydrogen(1+) (hydron) substance concentration of body fluids is below normal and hence the pH of blood rises above the reference interval.
|
4 |
AlkalosisA condition in which a there is a shift in the acid-base balance of the body to have more base than normal, often causing the pH of the blood and body tissues to rise above the healthy range (7.35-7.45). It may have respiratory causes such as hyperventilation and pneumonia or metabolic causes such as prolonged vomiting and severe dehydration.

Alkalosis<biochemistry> A pathologic condition resulting from accumulation of base or from loss of acid without comparable loss of base in the body fluids and characterised by decrease in hydrogen ion concentration (increase in pH). Compare: acidosis. (18 Nov 1997)
