I watched these videos almost 10 years ago and still find them extremely useful in everyday practice. It makes me appreciate, medicine is the ultimate application of science.
Even though both hydrogen ions and bicarbonate are produced pH is defined as the amount of hydrogen ions in solution. pH does not inherently drop if you add a base, the reason it drops is when the base reacts with the hydrogen ions taking them out of the solution. i.e. in circumstances where the reaction favours H + HCO3 , these molecules will not recombine and thus there will be lots of H ions in solution (and even though there are also HCO3 ions these do not somehow subtract from the pH as the pH is the amount of H in solution). Those molecules will recombine when the reaction is favouring the H2CO3 (and when this happens H ions will be taken out of solution and the pH will rise_. I would recommend reading up on LeChatlier's principle here. I think that is where your confusion is stemming from. TLDR; depending which side of the reaction is favoured, the H and HCO3 will either want to combine, or want to stay separate. In conditions where they stay seperate there is more H in solution and a lower pH. I hope this made it a little more clear.
This guy makes the most complicated principles seem so easy-breezy. Not to mention the great taste in music at the beginning of the video. Thank you!

Das ist das beste Video, das ich je zu diesem Thema gesehen habe.
Crystal clear prof... It helped me with my prep for my coming exam.
Thank you Dr West! The best explanation so far of acid base ive encountered !
BRIGHTLY CLEAR!
You have helped me a lot Mr.John. Thank you so much.May God Bless you.
Thank you ! I wish you to have good health ! you are great teacher ,
Thanks Dr West, may the Flying Spaghetti Monster caress you with his noodley appendage
Enjoyed learning about the changes of blood pH and the types of compensation. Thanks doc!
Por favor subtitulada en español
Thank you very much for helping me understand .
Amazing
Amazing! i wish you were my teacher Dr. West!
great lecture
Thanks buddy, great lecture :)
thanks a lot 👍👍👍♥️♥️
Thank you
GOD BLESS U
thank you sir.
👍
Why does increase in blood CO2 produce acidosis though it forms equal amounts of H+ and HCO3- ions?
Does somebody know the answer? I'm seriously getting mad with this ç_ç
