Title: Give the pathophysiology for the cause of the following abnormal values: BUN, NH3, and WBC. Post by: mikeman2332 on Jan 23, 2018 BUN: elevated 2o to dehydration and excessive NH3 (making more BUN because of the elevated NH3).
NH3: elevated 2o to blood in the gut being digested by bacteria and releasing NH3 . The NH3 is absorbed across the mucosa and increases blood ammonia. WBC: slightly elevated 2o to GG's stress.
