Abstract:Introduction and Aim: The maintenance of fluid balance in the intracellular and extracellular compartmentsis by two major electrolytes, namelysodium and chloride. An increase in sodium is associated with an increase in chloride level and vice versa. The normal reference ranges of sodium and chloride in blood differ by 40mmol/L.On this basis, chloride values can be calculated manually by subtracting 40 from the estimated sodium value.
Methods: The study population included 150 normal subjects and… Show more
