Electrolyte Values
SODIUM
- Sodium is the most abundant Cation in the blood and its
chief base. It functions in the body to maintain osmotic
pressure, acid-base balance and to transmit nerve
impulses. Very Low value: seizure and Neurologic Sx.
Normal Adult Range: 135-146 mEq/L

POTASSIUM
- Potassium is the major intracellular Cation. Very low
value: Cardiac arrhythmia.
Normal Range: 3.5 - 5.5 mEq/L

CHLORIDE
- Elevated levels are related to acidosis as wells too much
water crossing the cell membrane
Decreased levels with decreased serum albumin may

indicate water deficiency crossing the cell membrane
(edema). - Diabetes
Optimal Adult Reading: 103 mEq/L
Discussion
Chloride contributes to the body’s acid/base balance.
Along with Sodium, Potassium and Carbon Dioxide, it is
important in evaluating acid/base relationships, state of
hydration, adrenal and renal functions. Its level varies
inversely with Carbon Dioxide. Chloride elevation indicates
acidosis, decrease indicate alkalosis.
CO2 (Carbon Dioxide)

- The CO2 level is related tothe respiratory exchange of
carbon dioxide in the lungs and is part of the bodies
buffering system. Generally when used with the other
electrolytes, it is a good indicator of acidosis and alkalinity.

Normal Children's Range - 20 - 28 mEq/L
Optimal Children's Reading: 24
CALCIUM
- involved in bone metabolism, protein absorption, fat
transfer muscular contraction, transmission of nerve
impulses, blood clotting and cardiac function. Regulated by
parathyroid.
Normal Adult Range: 8.5-10.3 mEq/dl
Discussion
Serum calcium is not at all reflective of total body stores of

calcium but rather reflects the metabolic and hormonal
state of the individual. Ionic or free calcium is not only the
biologically active form of calcium but reflects the amount
of albumin and the blood pH.
Serum calcium can not be properly interpreted without

serum albumin level. Use the formula Adjusted Calcium =
Serum calcium - serum albumin + 4. By far the most
common causes of hypocalcaemia are primary
hyperparathyroidism, malignancy, and drug-induced. A
PTH, calcium, albumin and phosphorus level drawn
simultaneously helps classify the etiology into main
groups. Watch for signs of calcium deposition and kidney
stones
MAGNESIUM
Optimal Range: 2-3 mg/DL
Discussion
The serum magnesium is not reflective of total magnesium
stores. Unfortunately there is not a good test for
magnesium, but a red cell Mg level is preferable to serum
magnesium. Approximately 2/3 to ¾ of magnesium in blood
is not attached to protein.
PHOSPHORUS
- Generally inverse with Calcium.
Normal Adult Range: 2.5 - 4.5 mEq/dl

Normal Children's Range: 3 - 6 mEq/dl
Optimal Children's Range: 4.5
ANION GAP
(Sodium + Potassium - CO2 + Chloride) - An increased
measurement is associated with metabolic acidosis due to
the overproduction of acids (a state of alkalinity is in
effect). Decreased levels may indicate metabolic alkalosis
due to the overproduction of alkaloids (a state of acidosis
is in effect).
Normal Adult Range: 4 - 14 (calculated)

CALCIUM / PHOSPHORUS Ratio

Normal Adult Range: 2.3 - 3.3 (calculated)
Normal Children’s range: 1.3 - 3.3 (calculated)
Optimal Children’s Reading: 2.3

Transaminase - SGOT
) Found primarily in the liver, heart, kidney, pancreas, and
muscles. Seen in tissue damage, especially heart and live
Normal Adult Range: 0 - 42 U/L
ALT (Serum Glutamic-Pyruvic Transaminase -

SGPT)
- Decreased SGPT in combination with increased
cholesterol levels is seen in cases of a congested liver. We
also see increased levels in mononucleosis, alcoholism,
liver damage, kidney infection, chemical pollutants or
myocardial infarction
ALKALINE PHOSPHATASE
- Used extensively as a tumor marker it is also present in
bone injury, pregnancy, or skeletal growth (elevated
readings. Low levels are sometimes found in hypoadrenia,
protein deficiency, malnutrition and a number of vitamin
deficiencies
Normal Children's Range: 40 - 400 U/L
Optimal Children's Reading: 220
GGT (Gamma-Glutamyl Transpeptidase)

- Elevatedlevels may be found in liver disease, alcoholism,
bile-duct obstruction, cholangitis, drug abuse, and in some
cases excessive magnesium ingestion. Decreased levels
can be found in hypothyroidism, hypothalamic malfunction
and low levels of magnesium.
Normal Adult Female Range: 0 - 45 U/L
Optimal Female Reading: 22.5
Normal Adult Male Range: 0 - 65 U/L
Optimal Male Reading: 32.5
LDH (Lactic Acid Dehydrogenase)

leakage fromthe cell or in some cases it can be useful in
confirming myocardial or pulmonary infarction (only in
relation to other tests). Decreased levelsof the enzyme
maybe seen in cases of malnutrition, hypoglycemia,
adrenal exhaustion or low tissue or organ activity.
TOTAL BILIRUBIN
- Elevated in liver disease, mononucleosis, hemolytic

anemia, low levels of exposure to the sun, and toxic effects
to some drugs, decreased levels are seen in people with an
inefficient liver, excessive fat digestion, and possibly a diet
low in nitrogen bearing foods
Normal Adult Range 0 - 1.3 mg/dl
Optimal Adult Reading: .65
Renal Related:-
B.U.N. (Blood Urea Nitrogen
) - Increases can be caused by excessive protein intake,
kidney damage, certain drugs, low fluid intake, intestinal
bleeding, exercise or heart failure. Decreased levels may be
due to a poor diet, malab % sorption, liver damage or low
nitrogen intake.
Normal Adult Range: 7 - 25 mg/dl
Optimal Adult Reading: 16 mg/DL
CREATININE
- Low levels are sometimes seen in kidney damage, protein
starvation, liver disease or pregnancy. Elevated levels are
sometimes seen in kidney disease due to the kidneys job of
excreting creatinine, muscle degeneration, and some drugs
involved in impairment of kidney function,
Congestive heart failure
Normal Adult Range: 0 .7 - 1.4 mg/dl

Discussion
Creatinine is formed in muscles from creatine, which is

formed in the liver. It is a substance that in health is easily
excreted by the kidney. Because all Creatinine filtered by
the kidneys is excreted into the urine, its levels at any given
time interval are ***************
alent to the Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR).
URIC ACID
- High levels are noted in gout, infections, kidney disease,
alcoholism, high protein diets, and with toxemia in
pregnancy. Low levels may be indicative of kidney disease,
malabsorption, poor diet, liver damage or an overly acid
kidney.
Normal Adult Female Range: 2.5 - 7.5 mg/dl
Optimal Adult Female Reading: 5.0

Normal Adult Male Range: 3.5 - 7.5 mg/dl
Optimal Adult Male Reading:5.5

TOTAL PROTEIN
- Decreased levels may be due to poor nutrition, liver
disease, malabsorption, diarrhea, or severe burns.
Increased levels are seen in lupus, liver disease, chronic
infections, alcoholism, leukemia, tuberculosis amongst
many others.
Normal Adult Range: 6.0 -8.5 g/dl
ALBUMIN
- major constituent of serum protein (usually over 50%).
High levels are seen in liver disease (rarely) , shock,
dehydration, or multiple myeloma. Lower levels are seen in
poor diets, diarrhea, fever, infection, liver disease,
inadequate iron intake, third-degree burns and edemas or
hypocalcaemia
Normal Adult Range: 3.2 - 5.0 g/dl
GLOBULIN
- Globulins have many diverse functions such as, the
carrier of some hormones, lipids, metals, and antibodies
(IgA, IgG, IgM, and IgE). Elevated levels are seen with
chronic infections, liver disease, rheumatoid arthritis,
myelomas, and lupus are present, . Lower levels in immune
compromised patients, poor dietary habits, malabsorption
and liver or kidney disease.
Normal Adult Range: 2.2 - 4.2 g/dl (calculated)
A/G RATIO (Albumin/Globulin Ratio)

Normal Adult Range: 0.8 - 2.0 (calculated)
Lipids:-
CHOLESTEROL
- High density lipoproteins (HDL) is desired as opposed to
the low density lipoproteins (LDL), two types of cholesterol.
Elevated cholesterol has been seen in arthrosclerosis,
diabetes, hypothyroidism, pancreatic dysfunction and
pregnancy. Low levels are seen in depression, malnutrition,
liver insufficiency, malignancies, anemia, Hyperthyroidism
and infection.

Optimal Range: 185-200 mg/dl
Discussion
Cholesterol is an important part of our diet. It is essential to

the proper function and structure of cell membranes. Bile
acids are derived from cholesterol. The liver, adrenals, sex
glands, intestines, and even the placenta, manufacture
cholesterol. Cholesterol is best used as an indicator of
other metabolic dysfunction. Should not be considered a
disease by itself unless extreme, which indicates familial
cause. Check triglycerides and HDL/LDL. Cholesterol is
increased with endocrine hypo function. Low levels are not
necessarily desirable as it is associated with increased
incidence of malignancy and mental illness
LDL (Low Density Lipoprotein)

- studies correlate the association between high levels of
LDL and arterial arthrosclerosis
Optimal Adult Reading: 81 mg/dl
HDL (High Density Lipoprotein)

- A high level of HDL is an indication of a healthy metabolic
system if there is no sign of liver disease or intoxication.
Optimal Adult Reading: +85 mg/dl
Discussion
HDL is comprised of phospholipids and one or two

apolipoproteins. It plays a role in the metabolism of other
lipoproteins and in the transport of cholesterol to the liver.
The HDL is a class of lipoproteins produced by the liver
and intestines.A combination of increased triglyceride,
cholesterol, and LDL with reduced HDL is indicative of
atherogenic tendencies. A diet high in sugar may decrease
HDL while increasing total serum cholesterol
TRIGLYCERIDES
- Increased levels may be present in atherosclerosis,
hypothyroidism, liver disease, pancreatitis, myocardial
infarction, metabolic disorders, toxemia, and nephrotic
syndrome. Decreased levels may be present in chronic
obstructive pulmonary disease, brain infarction,
hyperthyroidism, malnutrition, and malabsorption.
CHOLESTEROL / LDL RATIO

Normal Adult Range: 1 - 6
Thyroid:-
THYROXINE (T4)-
Increased levels are found in hyperthyroidism, acute
thyroiditis, and hepatitis. Low levels can be found in
Cretinism, hypothyroidism, cirrhosis, malnutrition, and
chronic thyroiditis.
Normal Adult Range: 4 - 12 ng/dl
Optimal Adult Reading: 8 ng/dl
Free THYROXINE (T4)-

A low level may indicate a diseased thyroid gland or may
indicate a non-functioning pituitary gland which is not
stimulating the thyroid to produce T4 . If T4 is low and TSH
is normal , that is more likely to indicate a problem with the
pituitary .
Normal Adult Range: 8-2 ng/dl
Free Triiodothyronine (T3)

- Sometimes the diseased thyroid gland will start producing
very high levels of T3 but still produce normal level of T4.
Therefore measurement of both hormones provides an
even more accurate evaluation of thyroid function.
Normal Adult Range1.4-4.4 pg/ml
THYROID-STIMULATING HORMONE (TSH)
produced by the anterior pituitary gland, causes the -
release and distribution of stored thyroid hormones.
When T4 and T3 are too high, TSH secretion decreases,
when T4 and T3 are low, TSHsecretion increases. Mid–
rangenormal in most labs is about 1.7. A high level of
TSH combined with a low or normal T4 level generally
indicates hypothyroidism, which can have an effect on
fertility.
Normal Adult Range: .0.4-4.0 mlU/l
Cardiac:-
Creatine phosphokinase (CK)
- Levels rise 4 to 8 hours after an acute MI, peaking at 16 to
30 hours and returning to baseline within 4 days
25-200 U/L
32-150 U/L
CK-MB CK isoenzyme
- It begins to increase 6 to 10 hours after an acute MI, peaks
in 24 hours, and remains elevated for up to 72 hours.
< 12 IU/L if total CK is <400 IU/L
<3.5% of total CK if total CK is >400 IU/L
LDH) Lactate dehydrogenase

- Total (LDH) will begin to rise 2 to 5 days after an MI; the
elevation can last 10 days.
140-280 U/L
SGOT
will begin to rise in 8-12 hours and peak in 18-30 hours -

10-42 U/L
GLUCOSE -
Optimal Range: 85-100 mg/DL

Causes of Increased
· Diabetes mellitus and insulin resistance syndromes
· Thiamine (B1) insufficiency
· Stress
· Acute and chronic pancreatitis
· Drugs (anabolic and glucocorticoids, epinephrine, ,
diuretics,)
Causes of Decreased
Excess insulin (insulinoma, over dosage)
Impaired glucose tolerance (post-prandial)
Late/large malignancies
Endocrine hypo function (thyroid, adrenal cortex, anterior
pituitary)
Protein malnutrition
Sometimes in pregnancy
Liver dysfunction
After gastric surgeries (altered gastric emptying)
By.AmrKamal
IRON
Optimal Range: 75-150 mg/ml
Causes of Increased
Ineffective erythropoiesis (thalassemias, sideroblastic)
Intra-vascular hemolysis
Liver disease (alcohol, portocaval shunts)
Excessive iron intake
Causes of Decreased
Iron deficiency (low ferritin level; nutritional, blood loss, ,
small bowel disease, increased demand)
Chronic disease (liver dysfunction, renal dysfunction, etc.)
Discussion
Iron is known for its relationship to hemoglobin, which

transports oxygen. Confirm true iron deficiency before
supplementing iron. Never give Iron to someone who has
an inflamed liver because this can be toxic. With B12
or Iron deficiencies, give special consideration to increased
occurrence in the elderly. The most important test for iron
is the serum ferritin.

second and third trimesters may exceed those seen in
normal men and nonpregnant women
(3) During the second trimester of pregnancy there may be
an alteration in the relative distribution of the pancreatic
and salivary-type isoamylases with the salivary type
tending to dominate. Knowledge of these changes is of
importance in the clinical assessment of serum amylase
values in pregnant women complaining of abdominal pain
and other symptoms suggestive of acute pancreatitis

hormone, bone specific alkaline phosphates, osteocalcin
(OC), procollagen I carboxypeptides, calcium, phosphate
and creatinine in addition to urine deoxypyridinoline

Venous blood was tested for human chronic gonadotropin
(hCG), thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), free thyroxin
(FT4) and total triiodothyronine (TT3). Early pregnancy
thyroid function tests showed a significant decrease (p <
0.001) in TSH and a significant increase (p < 0.001) in TT3
as compared to the nonpregnant state; FT4, however, did
not change significantly. In 8 (11.2%) pregnant subjects,
TT3 levels were above the normal range for nonpregnant
controls. Elevated thyroid function in early pregnancy is
transient, and does not usually warrant antithyroid
treatment. Thus, any conclusion regarding thyroid function
in early pregnancy should be based on pregnant controls
rather than general population controls.
Uric Acid
Adult females: 2.0 - 6.5 mg/dl; in early pregnancy uric acid

levels fall by about one-
third but rise to non-pregnant levels by term
