Figure 1 Time course of changes in serum bicarbonate (mEq/L), lactate (mmol/L), and anion gap values (mEq/L). Time 0 is the beginning of a 4-hour hemodialysis treatment (arrow). All parameters improved after hemodialysis and returned to reference range values the next day. Conversion factors for units: serum lactate in mg/dL to mmol/L, ×0.111. No conversion units necessary for serum bicarbonate and anion gap in mEq/L and mmol/L.
