Magnesium Flashcards
1
Q
Hypo mechanisms
A
-Decreased protein binding
-Decreased intake or absorption
-increased renal excretion
2
Q
Decreased protein binding
A
Hypoalbuminemia
3
Q
Decreased intake or absorption
A
-Prolonged anorexia
-Grass tetany in ruminants
-Transport tetany and winter tetany in ruminants
-Milk tetany in calves
4
Q
Decreased renal reabsorption
A
-Osmotic diuresis
-Ketonuria (complexes with Mg in urine)
-Metabolic alkalosis (excreting bicarb which leads to Mg excretion)
5
Q
Hyper mechanisms
A
-Decreased renal excretion
-Parturient hypocalcemia
-Transcellular shifting (hemolysis)
6
Q
What species is plasma Mg not released in hemolysis
A
Cattle
