Hyponatremia Flashcards
Exercise associated hyponatremia is due to
excess water intake(dilutional)
Rx of Exercise induced hyponatremia
100ml of 3% NaCl in 10min
Diagnosis of GRA?
Increased urine 18-oxo and hydroxy cortisol
Diagnosis of SAME?
Increased ratio of urine cortisol/cortisone
Anion gap correction
Add 2.5mEq/L for every 1 g/dl fall in albumin
Delta/delta in lactic acidosis
1.6
Delta/delta in late DKA
Values of delta/delta for which you suspect met alkalosis
> 2
delta/delta
excreted anion
non AG acidosis
electrolyte abnormality in ethylene glycol poisoning
hypocalcemia
Calcium oxalate crystals
Dihydrate: envelope shaped
Monohydrate: needle shaped
effect of time on AG and OG in ethylene glycol poisoning?
Early: more OG
Late: more AG
Heparin free dialysis?
Uremic pericarditis
methanol poisoning
Vitamins used in ethylene glycol poisoning?
thiamine
pyridoxine
Vitamin used in methanol poisoning
folic acid
Acid base disturbances in salicylate poisoning?
Respiratory alkalosis+metabolic acidosis
pure respiratory alkalosis
respiratory acidosis+metabolic acidosis
intoxication with normal osmolal gap but high anion gap
salicylate
pyroglutamic acidosis
drug with highest level of propylene glycol
lorazepam
Drugs causing pyroglutamic acidemia?
flucloxacillin
acetaminophen
Effect of K+ on ammoniagenesis?
Inhibitory
Acid base abnormality due to urinary diversion
similar to distal RTA
Acid base abnormality due to urinary diversion is due to
absorption of NH4 and chloride
