Bicarbonate therapy can offer several benefits in the management of neonatal disorders:
1. Correction of Acidosis: It helps in normalizing blood pH and bicarbonate levels, improving overall metabolic function. 2. Improved Cardiovascular Function: By correcting acidosis, bicarbonate therapy can enhance cardiac output and oxygen delivery to tissues. 3. Enhanced Respiratory Function: Normalizing pH can improve respiratory drive and gas exchange. 4. Neuroprotection: Correcting acidosis can potentially reduce the risk of neurological damage associated with severe acidosis.
