Fluid for PH

Description

The Fluid for PH test is a fundamental diagnostic procedure used to measure the acidity or alkalinity of various body fluids, such as blood, urine, or cerebrospinal fluid. The pH scale ranges from 0 (most acidic) to 14 (most alkaline), with 7 being neutral. This test is crucial for assessing the body’s acid-base balance, which is tightly regulated to maintain optimal physiological function. Abnormal pH levels can indicate a range of conditions, including metabolic or respiratory acidosis or alkalosis, kidney dysfunction, or certain poisonings. In clinical settings, this test is often used in conjunction with other parameters to diagnose and monitor various metabolic, respiratory, and renal disorders, as well as to guide treatment decisions in critical care situations.
