Anatium is a study resource, not medical advice. Nothing here is a diagnosis, a prescription or a substitute for a clinician who has seen the patient. Check every number against a current local protocol before it touches anyone, and never act on a result you cannot reproduce yourself.
How it is calculated
Delta ratio = (measured anion gap - 12) / (24 - bicarbonate). It detects a second acid-base disorder hiding behind the first, which a normal-looking bicarbonate can easily conceal.
About
Compares the rise in anion gap with the fall in bicarbonate, revealing a second acid-base disorder hidden behind the first.
