These affected slides (potentially intermittent, consecutive slides within a cart or across consecutive carts) have an abnormality which may cause positively or negatively biased total carbon dioxide (CO2) results leading to either overdiagnosis of acidosis or missing alkalosis, both which may prompt unnecessary therapies such as IV fluids and/or bicarbonate or overdiagnosis of alkalosis which may also result in unnecessary use of IV fluids and electrolyte replacement or failure to detect acidosis and necessary treatment.",
