LAB VALUE MEMORY TRICKS

SODIUM: 135 - 145 POTASSIUM: 3.5 - 5 PHOSPHORUS: 2.5 - 4.5

*Commit to memory! BANANAS: PHOR: 4

There are about 3-5 in every *don’t
US: 2 (me + you = 2)
bunch & you want them half forget
ripe (½) the .5
ELECTROLYTES

So, think 3.5 - 5.0

CALCIUM: 9 - 11 MAGNESIUM: 1.5 - 2.5 CHLORIDE: 95 -105

CALL 911 MAGnifying glass Think of a chlorinated pool that

you see 1.5 - 2.5 you want to go in when it’s
bigger than normal SUPER HOT: 95 - 105 °F
BLOOD COUNT (CBC)

• Hemoglobin (Hgb)
Female: 12 - 16 g/dL
COMPLETE

Male: 13 - 18 g/dL
• Hematocrit (HCT) 12 X 3 = 36
To remember HCT, (Female)
Female: 36% - 48% 16 X 3 = 48
multiply Hgb by 3
Male: 39% - 54% 13 X 3 = 39
(Male)
18 X 3 = 54

BUN: 7 - 20 mg/dL CREATINE: 0.6 – 1.2 mg/dL

BASAL METABOLIC
PANEL (BMP)

Think hamburger BUNs... This is the same value as

Hamburgers can cost anywhere LITHIUM’s therapeutic range (0.6 - 1.2 mmol/L)
from $7 - $20 dollars Lithium is excreted almost solely by the kidneys...
And creatine is a value that tests how well your kidneys filter
