lab values and monitoring Flashcards
average lifespan of RBC?
average lifespan of plt
120days
7-10 days
BMP consists of
Electrolytes,
glucose,
renal function,
HCO3 or
bicarbs
Comprehensive metabolic panel
BMP + albumin, ALT, AST, Total bilirubin and protein
leukocytosis
increase in WBC
polycythemia
Increase in RBC
thrombocytosis
increase in PLT
myelosuppression
decrease in WBC RBC abd PLT
agranulocytosis
Decrease in WBCs that have granules neutrophilsm basophils and eosinophils
Calcium range and what meds alters it
8.5- 10.5
if albumin low check corrected CA
increases due to supplemetns vit D and THiazide diuretics
decreases due to long term heparin use, loop, bisphos, cincalcet, calcitonin, foscarnet and topiramate
MG
1.3-2.1
increases due to antacids and laxatives with renal impairment
decreases due to PPI, diuretics, ampb, foscarnet, echinocandins, diarrhea , alcohol
phosphate
2.3-4.7
increases in renal failure
decreases due to phosphate bincers, foscarnet, oral ca intake
Potassium
3.5-5
increases due to ACE, ARBS, ARNI, canagliflozin, cyclospoine, tacrolimus, K supplements, bactrim drospirenone containing oral contraceptives, NSAIDs
decreases due to beta 2 agonists, diuretics, insulin, steroids
NA
135-145
increases due to hypertonic saline
decrease due to carbamazepine, oxcarbazepine, SSRI, diuretics
Bicarbs
24-30 venous
increases due to loop, steroids
decreases due t topiramate, zonisamide, ASA overdose
BUN
7-20
increases due to renal impairment and dehydration
SCR
0.6-1.3
increases due to aminoglycosides, amph B, cisplatin, colistimethate, cyclosporine, loop. polymyxin, NSAIDS, dye, tacrolimus, vanc
decreases due to low muscle mass, amputation, hemodilution
anion gap
5-12
increases suggest acidosis
WBC
4-11x10^3
increases due to sytematic steroids
decreases due to clozapine, chemo, immunosupressants, vanc carbamazepine, cephalosporin
RBC
males- 4.5-5.5 X10^6
females 4.1-4.9 X10^6
increases with ESAs smoking
decreases due to chemo, anemias
scikle cell anemia
