Diagnosis
Because a significant
portion of calcium is bound
to albumin, any alteration
in the level of albumin will
affect the level of calcium is
measured. A corrected
calcium level based on the
albumin level is: Corrected
calcium (mg/dL) =
measured total Ca (mg/dL)
+ 0.8 * (4.0 - serum
albumin [g/dL]). Another
way to determine the
calcium level is to measure
directly the ionized calcium
level.
Management
Intravenous
calcium gluconate
10% can be
administered, or if
the hypocalcaemia
is severe, calcium
chloride is given
instead.
However, in either
circumstance,
maintenance doses
of both calcium and
vitamin-D (often as
1,25-(OH)2-D3, i.e.
calcitriol) are often
necessary to
prevent further
decline.

In addition, loop

Additional therapy:

Hyponatremia
Bisphosphonates are
pyrophosphate analogues
with high affinity for bone,
especially areas of high
bone-turnover.
Hypervolemic
hyponatremia
Both sodium & water
content increase: Increase
in sodium content leads to
hypervolemia and water
content to hyponatremia.
Total body water and
sodium are regulated
independently.[11]

Dialysis usually used
in

hypercalcaemia
complicated by renal
failure.
The
treatment
of
hyponatremia depends on
the underlying cause and
whether
the
patient's
blood volume status is
hypervolemic, euvolemic,
or hypovolemic.
Hypovolemia
intravenous
administration of normal
saline (salt) is usual, care
being taken not to raise
the serum sodium level
(salt level in the blood)
too quickly.
Euvolemic
nephrotic syndrome

massive edema of

Euvolemic hyponatremia

Hypovolemic
hyponatremia
Hyponatremia
managed
by
fluid
restriction and treatment
to abolish any stimuli for
ADH secretion such as
nausea. Likewise, drugs
causing
SIADH
are
discontinued if possible.
Patients with euvolemic
hyponatremia
that
persists despite those
measures
may
be
candidates for a so-called
vaptan drug.
Hypervolemic
Hyponatremia
treated by addressing the
underlying heart or liver
failure. If it is not possible
to do so, the treatment
becomes the same as
that
for
euvolemic
hyponatremia (i.e. fluid
restriction and/or use of a
vaptan drug).
The hypovolemia
(extracellular volume loss)
is due to total body sodium
loss. The hyponatremia is
caused by a relatively
smaller loss in total body
water.

Clinical manifestations
of hypernatremia can be
subtle, consisting of
lethargy, weakness,
irritability,
neuromuscular
excitability, and edema.
With more severe
elevations of the sodium
level, seizures and coma
may occur.
Hypovolemic
Inadequate intake of
free water associated
with total body sodium
depletion.
Excessive losses of
water from the urinary
tract,
Water losses associated
with extreme sweating
Severe watery diarrhea
Euvolemic
The
cornerstone
of
treatment
is
administration
of
free
water to correct the
relative
water
deficit.
Water can be replaced
orally or intravenously.
Water alone cannot be
administered
intravenously (because of

However, overly rapid
correction
of
hypernatremia
is
potentially
very
dangerous. The body (in
particular
the
brain)
adapts to the higher
sodium
concentration.
Rapidly
lowering
the
sodium
concentration
with free water, once this
adaptation has occurred,
causes water to flow into
brain cells and causes
them to swell. This can
lead to cerebral edema,
potentially resulting in
seizures, permanent brain
damage,
or
death.
Therefore,
significant
hypernatremia should be
treated carefully by a
physician or other medical
professional

experience in treatment

To gather enough
information for diagnosis,
the measurement of
potassium needs to be
repeated, as the elevation
can be due to hemolysis in
the first sample.
Generally, blood tests for
renal function (Creatinine,
blood urea nitrogen),
glucose and occasionally
creatine kinase and cortisol
will be performed.
Calculating the transtubular potassium gradient
can sometimes help in
distinguishing the cause of
the hyperkalemia.
Also, electrocardiography
(EKG/ECG) may be
performed to determine if
there is a significant risk of
cardiac arrhythmias
