Metabolic acid-base disorders result from primary alterations in ECF [HCO3 −], which in turn results from addition of acid to or loss of alkali from the body. In response to metabolic acidosis, pulmonary ventilation is increased, which decreases PCO2. The pulmonary response to metabolic acid-base disorders occurs in a matter of minutes. RNAE is also increased, but this takes several days. An increase in ECF [HCO3 −] causes alkalosis. This rapidly (minutes to hours) decreases pulmonary ventilation, which elevates PCO2 as a compensatory response. RNAE is also decreased, but this takes several days.

Respiratory acid-base disorders result from primary alterations in PCO2. Elevation of PCO2 produces acidosis, and the kidneys respond with an increase in RNAE. Conversely, a reduction of PCO2 produces alkalosis, and RNAE is reduced. The kidneys respond to respiratory acid-base disorders over several hours to days.
