Q

metabolic disturbance in pyloric stenosis

A

hypokalemic hypochloremic metaboic acidosis

  • hypokalemia via isotonic volume contraction from fluid loss, save Na with aldosterone, lose K+
  • hypochloremia via HCl loss in vomit
  • metabolic alkalosis via direct HCl loss and also no Cl- to exchange for HCO3-
