In order to diagnose accurately the type of acid-base disturbance (ABD) in patients with post-traumatic multiple organ failure (PMOF), arterial blood gases and electrolytes were determined 645 times on 112 patients with PMOF and the data were analyzed with the pre-estimated compensatory formula of ABD and the calculations of anion gap, potential bicarbonate, and blood chlorides. Simple ABD was found in 381 times of determinations and double ABD in 239 when only the formula was used in the analysis, while 264 times of simple ABD, 260 times of double ABD and 96 times of triple ABD were found when the formula was employed in combination with the calculations of anion gap, potential bicarbonate and blood chloride. The mixed types of ABD were increased by 49
