Which of the following conditions is classified as normochloremic acidosis?

Normochloremic acidosis is characterized by a decrease in blood pH due to an accumulation of acids in the body while maintaining normal chloride levels. Among the various conditions leading to acidosis, diabetic ketoacidosis is an example that fits this classification.

In diabetic ketoacidosis, the body produces high levels of ketone bodies as a result of insulin deficiency, leading to a metabolic acidosis. This process causes a reduction in bicarbonate levels and can significantly lower blood pH, fulfilling the criteria for metabolic acidosis. However, the chloride level remains within a normal range, hence the term "normochloremic."

Other conditions, such as the choices related to chronic pulmonary obstruction, uremic acidosis, and diarrhea, typically present with either hyperchloremic acidosis (in the case of diarrhea) or a different acid-base imbalance that alters chlorides in the body. Thus, diabetic ketoacidosis is uniquely positioned as the representative of normochloremic acidosis, making it the accurate selection.
