Electrolyte, pH, and HCO3 levels of 29 patients with bronchial asthrrıa and 30 healthy controls were investigated. IICO3 (p<0.01) and K (p<0.0..5) levels were significantly increased while Ca levels were decreased. The change in pH, Na, P and Cl levels were not statistically signijşcant (p>0.05). It was concluded that althought bronchoconstruction and altitude increase hyparia, conwan.sation mech-anisms prevent important change in the acid-base equilibrium.
