The value for the anion gap tells your healthcare provider something about which other charged particles must be in your blood to make it neutral.This
test gives clues about different types of acidosis, when your blood is too acidic.
It also tells your provider about alkalosis, when your blood is not acidic enough. High anion gap acidoses are most often due to ketoacidosis,lactic acidosis, chronic kidney disease,or certain(toxic ingestions).Normal anion gap acidoses are most often due to gastrointestinal or renal HCO3-loss.((INJECTION 222))
