I swear this changed my life. I NEVER get a single acid base question wrong anymore! Like for real. THANK YOU!
Aishima where madam?
I want to thank you for creating all these vids to help others. My brother introduced me to dirtyusmle and I have used ur teachings to teach my friend and she learns while I reinforce what i learned because of you. Teachers like u are what make the world better. I can honestly say that every single video of yours that i have seen has changed my life. When i pass my exam it will change my life even more, a better future not only for myself and for my family, but also for all the people i will be able to help one day. Thank you and please continue to make these great helpful videos!!! I ❤️ dirtyusmle!!!
I’ve been trying to learn this for so many years that I literally gave up and accepted the fact that I’ll never understand it. This video is brilliant! Genius! It changed my life, thank you!
BLESS YOUR SOUL!! i love u random guy in the internet who just explained everything i have to know for a test tomrrow, sending lots of good vibes to you man
I'm a newly licensed ohysician and this helped me tremendously. THANK YOU!
The best video I ever watched on youtube. I need not open books again to read about acid-base balance. Thank you very much sir!
THIS IS LITERALLY SO AMAZING HOLY. you're an absolute genius
This was always such a hard concept for me in Med school! but this video has clarified it so much for me. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!
Where are you madam Devanga isee your contribution in Acid base balance obvious even me had help to know in detail
This is the best explanation what one could give to any acid base balance question :) . The best teacher for short tricks . Love from India 🇮🇳.
you are my savior thank you for all of these videos your videos are the ONLY ones that get me to remember things
Hands-down, your most impressive video. This is an elite, creative tool
Thanks for making this concept ridiculously easy that medical school professors try hard and fail to explain
It’s very short and sweet and to the point where you get most of the questions answered on a test but this is only the beginning of this huge topic. Good for starters.
Used this today in rounds on the spot when the Consultant handed me the rapid ABG strip and asked me to interpret it… got it right and impressed everyone Cheers Dirty Medicine ❤️
Thank you for this Dirty!!! I have no words. Sharing your videos with ALL my friends. Love from Singapore!!!
Thankyou so much for your amazing videos, as always
Quick info regarding the first example, we have to calculate compensation whenever we encounter Metabolic acidosis by Winter formula. (1.5 * HCO3 + 8 +-2) . so the example u gave is not compensated . Its Metabolic Acidosis without compensation
The math wasn't checked in the example. It's moreso just the method
If we apply winters formula in first example then value of CO2 should be 23 and here in example is 28 which is above normal so it becomes a mixed disorder, right ?
Thank you so much, man. I really never understood this one over the years. You really helped a lot of struggling students here!
Thanks I tried bnb and was confused ...you simplified a lot....the thing I couldn’t get in one n half hour u made it clear in 8 minutes
You are a Gem! Some Heros don't wear capes. Thank you!
SUPERB EXPLANATION! I thought I have to sit with my slides, to understand, but this one was just on the go!!
You deserve Noble price for all your contribution to medical education rather than those stupid med schools sucking all the money they can.
I love this. I’m done with steps, yet I rewatch this again. Thanks man!
You should create some sort of step 1 review program. You are awesome bro.
We might release a textbook if we can generate enough interest. It would NOT be all-inclusive (ie, it would NOT be like First Aid). It would contain the HIGHYIELD info from each section, complete with mnemonics, and then at the front of the book there would be a list of the top-100 most commonly tested facts
Hope you guys release it before august 2017.

@@DirtyMedicine hi! Where can I find your book?
@@DirtyMedicine Good luck
This is the single best explanation I've gotten on this topic, thank you!
Dirty, my king, all of our king, you have helped me understand something I never did before!!!
Love this. Can tell that your thoughts are systematic and organized. Thanks.
A good trick: Is there an anion gap? It is good to look at this BEFORE ANY OTHER NUMBER to save time. Because, if there IS INDEED an anion gap, then you 100% have an anion gap metabolic acidosis
Oh Man. You are such a brilliant guy. No words to thank you. You Mad my day Sir. Stay blessed.
I think this is very simplistic for what step 1 wants us to know.
Thanks! I knew if I searched long and hard enough, someone would know of a way to help this sink in and make it easy to quickly figure it out in my head.
Everything I need to know in such a simplified way! Thank you so so much!
The way you simplified it is just.. AWESOME!
oh my god dude thank you!!!!!! I spent so much time trying to understand it but u explain it within minutes 😍 ty
you don't know how much this video was helpful, thank u so much
Simply amazing.. Never got a/b balance so easier. Thumbs up. Thanks
Love your voice. And thank u for teaching this in a simple way.
One of the best video for interpretation of abgs .. thankyou ❤
GOSH THIS VIDEO IS AMAZINGGGG THANK YOU FOR MAKING MY LIFE EASIERRRR
You are a magician! I actually understood this. I am so jealous of the future gens who will sit for step1 because by then you will have so many more videos. BUT THANK YOUUUU
Your explanation was very clear and easy to understand with good logic that'll make me remember it as well. Thanks a lot!! -Medico
Thank u so much. I never thought I could ever understand the acid base balance. U made my life so much easier.
Thank you so much! You don't know how much you have changed my life!
Listen to me my professor made this fun and I still could not comprehend. The way you explained this is amazing and simple thank you so much.
BRILLIANT. You, sir, are a genius.
You're awesome! I finaly figured out AB regulation,and with this short and simple video. You rock! 👌😄
Awesome!! Finally I got it! Thank you very much!!! God bless you!!
I also think of ROME changes (Respiratory opposite, metabolic equal) and just use your pH to know if it is acidosis/alkalosis
No bullshit straight to the point and effective! Thank you!
I didn't realize it was this easy this entire time, I never got this concept before!
No wait.
It cant be this easy
I HAVE BEEN SHITTING ON ACID BASE QUESTIONS SINCE 3YEARS AND THISSSS :')
May God bles you!
You’re genius!!! Thank you for your videos!
Brilliant. Articulate. Concise.
VERY VERY impressive....banged out 5 problems effortlessly
We all owe you big time, Sir! ❤️
The first real thing I truly understood about acid base 😅❤
Thanks Dirty medicine
MAY GOD BLESS YOU
In love with your voice ! 😍 Also great video
This video is an easy method to never get a acid-base problem wrong, ever again.
You are the best! Thank you for this!
Hi Dirty, I might be wrong about this, but if you use Winters formula to calculate the range of CO2 for compensation, this CO2 value should be between 33-37. However CO2 here is beyond this range, so theoretically speaking I don't think this is a compensation.
The numbers are totally made up for the sake of illustrating how the numerator/denominator change. The actual calculated and reference values are irrelevant for the purpose of this video.
A 58 years old man was brought to the emergency with confusion and lethargy. His temperature is 36.7 C, blood pressure is 86/58 mmHg, pulse is 120/min, and respirations are 10/min. pH is 7.59, pCO2 49 mmHg and p0285mm Hg. Which of the following condition best describe his acid base status ? How to solve this when hco3 isn't given
Primary disorder: Metabolic alkalosis (high pH)
Compensation: Respiratory acidosis (elevated pCO2)
Have to say amazing work with your videos
You've helped me A LOT. Please keep posting videos more consistently ❤
You sir just made my life so much easier ! Thank you !!!!
wow, this is a really clear explanation. Amazing. I never really understood this before. Thank you so much for this
I love you. Thank you. I was about to throw my computer out the window. 5.5 weeks till USMLE ⚰
oh my god. i cant believe this. incredible im not going to miss any other acid base questions.
It's a very, very, very, very, very, very, very great. THANKS A LOT!!
my life has become so easy after this vedio , thank you
I just scrapped 4 pages I had written of high yield acid base concepts..this is all we need ..plus winters formula and the compensations...
This changed how I look at everything thanks
Wow simply AMAZING, thank you so much you are something else 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Vvvvvv nice lecture, I had a lots of confusion in this topic , now it solved
I must to say,ماشاءالله
This is literally the best! Thank you so much💜
I think I love you. Thank you for this!!!
Exam day after. I can't tell you how thankful I am, that I came across this video. Thankyou so much! Do you have any advice for me? Biostat is a bit of a problem for me..
You are the best ❤. Thank you for your videos, they are so helpful
This is better than that tic tac toe technique! Thanks!
Absolutely magnificent explanation I raise the hat up for you dude
Thank you for your medical lecture. I get a strategy of USMLE.
The best summary ever. Kudos
best ever video on such a confusing concept,thanku
Thank you very much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i've struggled with these questions for a while, but thanks to you i know what to do now
Boom, u made it so simple @DirtyMedicine… 🧡 4m 🇮🇳
Wow....for the1st time I have seen it and immediately subscribed....
Absolutely genius. Thanks for sharing ❤
Love you man!! this is awesome!!! changed my life
I wish every teacher taught it this way life wud b so much easier i m the happiest person nw ... i always messed up these mcqs 😢
Bro I love you wallahi
You are a savior man!
This is awesome!! But I don't think this method works for some questions that force you to calculate using Winters formula. Cuz I ran into some of them and it was very annoying
You are perfect! But I still have one question; If pH = 7.63 HCO3=26.9 CO2 = 25
We will call this alkalosis but respiratory or metabolic? How can we decide ? Or is it important to know the etiology in here ?? Thank for everything , I hope someone can answer me! :)
bump I'd like to know too
This would be a Metabolic Alkalosis with Compensatory Respiratory Acidosis
Answer this please
It is a mixed acid-base disorder since pH is high it is alkalaemia and carbon dioxide is low hence it is respiratory alkalosis and for this bicarbonate should be low for compensation to be exact three points below normal for acute respiratory alkalosisAnd 7.5 points below normal for chronic respiratory alkalosis but pH is high here so it is a mixed acid-base disorder of respiratory alkalosis and metabolic alkalosis and that also explains very high pH
Doc Thind Thank you for your answer
cant believe i actually understand acid base, thankyou
You are great. God bless you
So helpful. Thank you, from Pakistan.
YOU ARE THE REAL HERO MAN!
I just LOVE you, dude! You're genius!
I think you just changed my life
Can never thank you enough for this!! wishing you the best🤗
Life changed!!!! Thank you!!
