Abstract:

Lactic acidosis is a metabolic alteration that can evolve in any reduced tissue hypoxic state in case of hepatic dysfunction, pulmonary embolism, and acute myocardial infarction.

A distinctive symptom of acidosis is hyperpnoea, an increased depth followed by an increased frequency of breathing. Severe acidosis can determine cardio circulatory shock due to a reduced myocardial contractility or progressive sensory alteration.
