Overview
Epidemiology and Demographics
Incidence
- The incidence of metabolic alkalosis is highest among all other acid based disorders. The incidence of metabolic alkalosis is approximately 51% in hospitalized patient.[1]
Prevalence
Case-fatality rate/Mortality rate
- The mortality rate with metabolic alkalosis is 45% with arterial blood pH 7.55 to 80% with arterial blood pH of 7.65. Treatment is usually supportive based on cause of the disease.
Age
- Patients of all age groups may develop Metabolic Alkalosis.
Race
- There is no racial predilection to Metabolic alkalosis.
Gender
- Metabolic Alkalosis affects men and women equally.
Region
- There is no regional predilection for Metabolic Alkalosis.
Developed Countries
- There is no sufficient data specifically mentioning population from developed countries.
Developing Countries
- There is no sufficient data specifically mentioning population from developing countries.
