About: Delta ratio

An Entity of Type: Thing, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Delta ratio, or "delta-delta", is a formula that can be used to assess elevated anion gap metabolic acidosis and to evaluate whether a mixed acid–base disorder (metabolic acidosis) is present. The anion gap (AG) without potassium is calculated first and if a metabolic acidosis is present, results in either a high anion gap metabolic acidosis (HAGMA) or a normal anion gap acidosis (NAGMA). A low anion gap is usually an oddity of measurement, rather than a clinical concern.
