Overview
Historical Perspective
In the beginning era of exploration of acid-base physiology, there are contribution of many scientists from 1880s to modern time. In 1880s Arrhenius defined acid for the first time as a substance which helped in increasing hydrogen ions concentration when dissolving with water. Naunyn combined definitions from Arrhenius and Faraday and came up with ideas of electrolytes determining acid-base physiology.[1] Van Slyke modified the definition of acid by Naunyn in 1920. Bronsted and Lowry defined acid as a substance donating hydrogen ion just after World War One, whereas Lewis suggested acid as acceptor of electron pair. Henderson and Hasselbalch contributed in development of Henderson-Hasselbalch equation linking pH, PCO2, HCO3 concentration in 1908 and 1916 respectively. The role of HCO3 in acid-base physiology first came up in 1950s.[2][3]
Discovery
A group of physicians from Denmark erroneously discovered metabolic alkalosis by using bicarbonate concentration in plasma during the emergence of polio epidemic in 1952.[4]
Outbreaks
- The Polio epidemic triggered the development of glass electrode and detection of pH by Astrup in blood. He worked with Siggard-Anderson to build the foundation od clinical acid-base balance.
Landmark Events in the Development of Treatment Strategies
- From 1970 to 1980s Stewart showed detailed integration of clinical acid-base physiology and applied HCO3 centered in clinical settings.
Impact on Cultural History
Famous Cases
- The following are a few famous cases of disease name:
