Title: A client's serum chemistry measurements are serum sodium level 146 mEq/L, BUN 24 mg/dl, and glucose ... Post by: drplummer on Jan 24, 2018 A client's serum chemistry measurements are serum sodium level 146 mEq/L, BUN 24 mg/dl, and glucose level 90 mg/dl. What is the client's serum osmolality?
a. 275 mOsm/kg b. 285 mOsm/kg c. 295 mOsm/kg d. 305 mOsm/kg Title: A client's serum chemistry measurements are serum sodium level 146 mEq/L, BUN 24 mg/dl, and glucose ... Post by: purplewine28 on Jan 24, 2018 ANS: D
To calculate osmolality, use the equation: 2(serum Na concentration) + BUN/3 + glucose level/18. 2(146) + 24/3 + 90/18 = 305 mOsm/kg.
