Dr. Cui Zhenqin
Conditions prone to metabolic alkalosis include upper gastrointestinal bleeding, hepatic abscess, and small bowel perforation. When such conditions occur, early detection and prompt treatment are essential to prevent irreversible complications resulting from delayed intervention. In daily dietary management, a light diet is recommended, supplemented with appropriate amounts of vitamin-rich and nutrient-dense foods.
