What is Qlimax?
Qlimax, one of the leading indoor hardstyle events of the world, is annually organised in the GelreDome by the Dutch event organizer Q-dance. Qlimax is known for its sophisticated production: an extensive range of stage lights, flamethrowers, pyrotechnics and the best artists are programmed into telling a story during multiple stages of the night.
Is serum potassium measured by biochemistry or blood gas?
The mean serum potassium level measured by biochemistry analyzer was 6.78±0.79mmol/L, whereas it was 6.16±0.86mmol/L by blood gas analyzer (P<.001, Sign test). There was a strong correlation (P<.001, r=0.864) between the 2 methods, but agreement was relatively poor.
Do biochemistry analyzer and blood gas analyzer give different results in hyperkalemia?
Principal conclusions: In patients with moderate to severe hyperkalemia, blood gas analyzer and biochemistry analyzer gives significantly different serum potassium results which may be clinically important. Copyright © 2016 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
What is the molecular weight of potassium in the body?
Definition. Potassium, a metallic inorganic ion with atomic weight of 39, is the most abundant cation in the body. The vast majority of potassium is in the intracellular compartment with a small amount in the extracellular space. Normal serum potassium is 3.5 to 5.5 mEq/L; however, plasma potassium is 0.5 mEq/L lower.
