24
Q

For every 100mg/dl of glucose above normal, sodium decreases by how many mEq/L?

25
What causes pseudohyponatremia?
Extreme elevations in plasma lipids and proteins
26
In the absence of renal disease, this is associated with low urine sodium
Depletional cause of hyponatremia
27
This shows increased sodium levels in the urine
Renal sodium wasting
28
This type of cause related hyponatremia is associated with hypovolemia in circulation
Dilutional
29
Loss of free water or gain of sodium in excess of water
Hypernatremia
30
This type of hypernatremia is caused by iatrogenic administration of sodium containing fluids
Hypervolemic hypernatremia
31
Can result from renal causes, diabetes insipidus, diuretic use or renal disease
Normovolemic hypernatremia
32

Above the normal range of potassium which is 3-5 to 5 mEq/L
Hyperkalemia
36
ECG changes in hyperkalemia

37
Potassium decreases by _____ with ___ increase in pH
0.3 mEq/L , 0.1
38
ECG changes in hypokalemia
