So berechnen Sie Osmolality

learn.whatIsHeading

Osmolality measures solute concentration in body fluids. It's critical for diagnosing hyponatremia, hypernatremia, and fluid disorders.

Formel

Calculate: Osm = 2[Na] + (Glu/18) + (BUN/2.8)
Na
Na value — Variable used in the calculation
BUN
BUN value — Variable used in the calculation

Schritt-für-Schritt-Anleitung

  1. 1Calculate: Osm = 2[Na] + (Glu/18) + (BUN/2.8)
  2. 2Normal: 280-310 mOsm/kg
  3. 3Compare measured to calculated osmolality

Gelöste Beispiele

Eingabe
Na 128, glucose 200, BUN 28
Ergebnis
Osm ≈ 318 (high), measured lower suggests hyponatremia
Pseudohyponatremia likely

Häufige Fehler vermeiden

  • Neglecting glucose and BUN contributions in hyperglycemia/uremia
  • Confusing osmolality with osmolarity (different in concentrated solutions)

Häufig gestellte Fragen

What's the osmolal gap?

Difference between measured and calculated osmolality. Large gap suggests unmeasured osmoles (ethanol, methanol, etc.).

How does osmolality relate to sodium?

Sodium is the main determinant of osmolality; hyponatremia usually means hypoosmolality and vice versa.
