Hypokalemia Etiologies


Hypokalemia Treatment

Caution With The Treatment of Hypokalemia

Hypokalemia ECG

Hypokalemia

Etiologies Of Hyperchloremia

Etiologies Of Hypochloremia

- Respiratory acidosis
–In respiratory acidosis, the body attempts to compensate by reabsorbing HCO3-, and in this process, chloride is excreted (apparently to maintain charge)

Hypochloremia Example: Pyloric Stenosis

Fluid Management For Pyloric Stenosis


Parathyroid Hormone (PTH)

Calcitonin
